I don't know why they would replace 3 times then say the next fix is you problem?

That makes no sense, the 2 sided tape should work, unless the spoiler or the trunk lid are porus allowing water in there.

I would take it back to Toyota and have them replace the spoiler.

You can buy 2 sided tape and try yourself, or use a 2 part epoxy, but really, is Toyota suggesting you are intentionally removing it?
