The black base part, it looks to me like there is some white piece glued to the windshield; and the black base piece is attached to the white piece, this is the piece that is coming loose. It has a lot of jiggle movement, is there a way to tighten it, so it is more flush to the windshield and doesn't jiggle at all?

More than likely there's a set screw that needs to be snugged down. Look for a small allen-head or slotted screw head.

There isn't a screw of any sort.
