Default Roof piece coming off?

The two plastic pieces on each side of the roof on the exterior of the car seem to be coming off? The ends of each piece seem to be popping out by half an inch or so. I try pressing it down but it just comes back up.

Is this a common problem? how would i go about fixing this? Its a 2008 model

on mine, my dealer says the high pressure car wash spray lifts these up; here is what the manual says about them... My clips are broken and I just siliconed the tips and they have stayed down.

I guess the high pressure car wash spray loosens those parts and the chrome exterior handle nub on the end of the handle. Lost one in a car wash too.
