Does anyone else have this problem???
The cover keep recoiling on its own when I go over a bump or round a corner etc. It seems that the the bar isn't long enough to hook into the recesses properly.
Any suggestions for rectifying this v. annoying problem???

I get this too. as for solutions, well, I've been meaning to do something for ages, but I'm a lazy sod 
My thinking is to put some tape round the ends, to make it a bit thicker, then in theory it should be a tighter fit into the holes and thus not come out so easilly.

Mine kept doing it as well so I removed the mouldings from both sides by unscrewing the self tappers and placed a couple of washers under the moulding and put the screws back through them.
This made the mouldings stand out further and so the roller blind lugs engage more positively and I have never had it jump out since.
