Mine is the same way a little loose, I'm afraid if I drive one day if it will fall out, b/c at some point it became so loose, it literally looked like it was going to fall out. Everytime I walk by that side I kinda push it back in to make sure. Thinking about putting a lil bit of glue in one corner to make it tighter.

hopefully my service manager can check it out next time it's in for service... don't you think glue is a bad idea, isn't it going to make it stick together???

NO, do not use glue. That this is spring loaded, you can pull the headlight washer out by hand. I don't remember there is any nut/screw to hold it down. If you glue the corner, you won't be using the washer again.
