Your car is posessed, not a biggie, Stop complaning

 

same thign happened to me, looking to get the dealership to fix it.

same year as mine too, maybe there's something going on with these 02's...

 

Have your answer. Not a big worry, but a little work to fix. No you don't have to take the glove box out.

Move the driver seat all the way forward. Remove the screws from the two hooks on the black panel (they look like clothing hooks). Then remove this panel. Now lift up the leather pad on the arm rest from the back. Remove the two screws on the bottom of the glove box underneath the pad. Now you should be able to move the plastic out enought to get a hand behind the plastic.

The DC adapter has a metal sleeve that for some reason likes to unscrew itself. Simple hold the outside portion of the DC adapter and screw the sleeve back on. Now replace all the screws in the reverse order you took them out.

I use this outlet for my detector and have to do this every 3-4 months.

Good Luck!!!

I just got home but had to get it towed... very bad weekend..stock clutch btw..I might as well install a performance clutch noww. But thanks for the info! Very much appreciated!
