Alright. I'll be that dumbass.

How exactly am I suppose to ziptie it? As far as I understand zipties are for tying multiple cables together. What other cable should I be ziptying it to?

Or should I try to find some mini hose clamp?

BTW, it's a 2014 and the hose is still not clamped down.

You just ziptie it to hold the hose onto the end it is attached to. Just tighten it so that end can not come off the nozzle and you're good to go from my experience.

Is there a chance that the engine bay will get hot enough to melt the zip tie?

Ok. I bought some fancy ($0.49) mini hose clamps yesterday.

When I try to put them on the hose, I noticed that it seems to be glued now. Since it is pretty solid, I think I am just going to leave it.

Mitsubishi did sort of fix it for 2014.
