Loctite makes or made a caulk that doesn't burn foam. Fits in a caulking gun. Slather it on and clamp down. Let it cure. What scares me is you said plastic. Might have to rough up the frame with some 80 grit. Some plastics are super hard slash slick. Here it is from Home Cheapo.

yeah the plastic is fairly slick.. definitly will rough it up. Thanks for the Info SloMo
Duct tape will let go in high temperatures- can you post a photo?
Depending on the plastic, you may or may not be able to glue it on but if the pad has come off in a large area around the rim, maybe a compatible plastic piece can be screwed to the bottom or back, then glue to that.
GOOP is one adhesive that could work- it's also sold as 'Shoe Goo', for running shoe sole repairs. Another is 3M 5200- it comes in white and black, described as a 'permanent' adhesive. If the plastic is compatible, it won't come off as long as everything is clean. It's used in marine applications and from personal experience, I used it to seal the holes from ladder racks on my van. I put tarp tape under the holes and a dab of 5200 on from the top. In April, 2011. 13 years of sunlight Winter cold and Summer heat- it's not going anywhere.
If you don't ever want to separate them and the plastic is compatible, 3M's adhesive for auto body panels is another, but it's very expensive and only comes in large tubes.

I will second the shoe goo but if glueing to the foam anything is a temporary repair.
