How long was the line installed and used before it popped out? As far as I know, the retainers don't keep the line from sliding off due to pressure since the line is between two flow points. The retainers are there to keep the line from coming off due to vibration or other movements so the strength of the retainers should not be an issue. I have a feeling that the line was not pushed in all the way and came loose shortly after installation. If the retainer is not damaged then you can use it again or you can purchase new ones if you think it will be safer. After installation, pull the line from both ends to make sure it will not come out. Let me know what happens.
