Yes, it happened to my '89 when I first got it.

I solved it by drilling a tiny hole through the plastic end 
just behind where it snaps on the stud, and putting in a 
small cotter pin to prevent it from coming back off.  You 
could also use a safety wire or some sort of wire.

This has held for about 11 years.
