Default The plastic trim running along both sides of roof popping up slightly at the ends

On the ES350, has anyone had issues with the plastic trim running along both sides of the roof popping up slightly at the ends?

My dealer replaced mine and the problem occurred again. I just press it down. It is not too noticeable so I just live with it.

Thanks for the link. Unknown2 posted:
If they remove the trim, they MUST use new clips!!
See this file.. It might help you out:

The file is no longer available for viewing, but did you bring that to the dealership's attention when you went in to have it fixed?

Does it stay down at least temporarily when you press it down? Mine just pops back up. All 4 sides are like that.
