Sagging underhood insulation??

Hello all-

My underhood insulation isn't well retained near the rear portion of the hood (at the cowl interface). Particularly, the 'tabs' that hold the insulation up under the hood near the cowl aren't stout enough to hold the insulation in place (up against the hood). So, my hood insulation is sagging and it snags the plastic cowl everytime I open the hood. I'll try to grab a photo later on today.

Anyone else have this problem? I'm still under warranty, but I'm not sure insulation is covered. Most annoying to me: my 18 year old explorer's underhood insulation was beautiful, this RAM's insulation is looking depressed after 3 years… come on Mopar!!

I could add 1-2 more retainer clips, but this would require drilling more holes in the hood bracing.

Thoughts? Thanks guys-
 
I used spray contact adhesive on the that part of the insulation. I used Loctite as it appears to be approved for higher temps. Figured it get hot under there. Be sue to cover areas you don't want the spray to hit. Two years and still holding.
 
It is covered under the 3/36 warranty.
