solve this dispute: OEM Spoiler

Installed the spoiler with extreme care and kept it under towels and weights for 24 hours to make sure it sticks along the whole length. Less than a week of driving and the spoiler slowly lifted in some spots. Two days ago, it almost all came off; my wife stopped and saved it.
Called SpoilerDepot and PUTECH at least a half dozen times. No help at all.
Spoiler is now stored back in its box

Thanks anyway for the advice.
I am usure as to why you would think that tape would be sufficient to attach a spoiler to a trunk lid. The force of the air flow going over and under the wing should be enough to lift it off the deck. What do you think?
My car is on post 18.
I bought my spoiler used.
Got some tape from pepboys.
Removed the wax and polish from the car with dawn.
Cleaned off the old adhesive with gum/adhesive remover.
Cleaned both surfaces with acetone.
Applied tape, press fit with a couple heavy books overnite,
It has been on for 2 years. This is also my daily driver,
