Alwin, if you haven't already tried using a silicone sealant to help secure them into place, then I recommend using some. This seems to have helped other neighbors in the past and it wont cause any issues with warranty. Even with the obnoxious heat in Texas (which us in St. Louis understand), a sealant like part # 0160297 should help.
