Default Rear hatch/tailgate support strut upper mount

I have a 2011 XC90. The rear hatch/tailgate support strut mount **** (ball stud) has pulled out of the fiberglass of the hatch. The dealership used epoxy to glue it back in and it held up fine for about a year. It has pulled out again. Does anyone have a more permanent fix for this, short of a new tailgate?

I have this too on the right side got it fixed once at a body shop, used an epoxy to "glue" it back on, but only lasted about a year.
I did see this on another forum that looks more permanent.
