tailgate handle fell apart

THE PARTICULAR PROBLEM I AM ANNOYED WITH ON MY NEW VEHICLE IS THE "HANDLE ASSEMBLY TAILGATE PULL" PART. I HAVE INCLUDED A PHOTO OF THE PIECE ITSELF. IT IS THE HANDLE INSERT THAT YOU GRAB ONTO TO CLOSE YOUR HATCHBACK/TRUNK. I HAD THE VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS AND IT STARTED TO FALL OUT OF THE INSET EVERY TIME I CLOSED THE TRUNK/HATCHBACK. WHEN I OF COURSE OPEN IT, IT FALLS OUT OF THE VEHICLE. I POP IT BACK IN BUT IT NEVER FAILS, EVERY TIME I CLOSE THE TRUNK/HATCHBACK, IT FALLS OUT AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I AM WAITING TO ADDRESS IT DIRECTLY WITH THE DEALERSHIP WHEN I TAKE THE VEHICLE IN FOR ITS FIRST OIL CHANGE. AS FOR NOW, I HAVE TO BE CAREFUL NOT TO LOSE THE ACTUAL PART WHEN IT FALLS OFF/FALLS OUT OF THE VEHICLE. IF YOU DON'T POP IT BACK IN TO USE IT, THEN YOU ARE FORCED TO GRAB A HOLD OF PURE METAL TO CLOSE YOUR TRUNK/HATCHBACK AND IT IS SHARP - COULD POTENTIALLY CUT YOU.
