Many have used a stainless screw to tie the cowl pieces together. Do a search on cowl stainless screw and see if you get some hits.

There is a TSB on this problem.About 1-1/2 years ago mine came loose too.I took it to my local Ford dealer and they followed the TSB and fixed it.It has been ok since then.

I didn't know there was a TSB. Mine came loose, but I just popped it back in place, I haven't had issues with it since. It's been over a year.

Same, I popped it back in with my fist and it hasn't come up since.
