If it is still under warranty I'd let your dealer sort that out, these sensors are pressed into a retaining clip/mounting - which in turn is either bonded by plastic welding to the inner face of the bumper or maybe now just stuck on with heavy duty double sided tape.
Now if it has just unplugged from the still attached sensor mounting, then getting your finger up behind the bumper would sort that easily - but if the mounting has come off the bumper then what.
From that picture I'd guess that the mounting is still stuck to the bumper, can you stick a small finger through that opening and see if you can feel the edges of the mounting still close to or part of the bumper, then push it back in until you feel the retaining clips engaging over the end of the sensor assembly.
Edit:- though on re-thinking that approach, the number plate recess might make reaching up behind a bit tricky so maybe the bumper needs loosening off to provide access.
Yes they are attached with brackets which are stuck on with strong double sided stuff. Real pain to get off. Swapped mybrear diffuser on my last car skoda superb sportline and had to swap the sensors over. Took me 1.5hrs lol.
Does anyone know how to access the rear parking sensors and how they are held in the bumper?
Had the car a week and has come out!! Excuse the dirty motorway mileage bumper!! View attachment 12582
I had the same problem recently, I managed to push it back by removing the number plate lamp and putting my finger through to push from behind. Before that I was considering drilling a hole behind the number plate.
