|
|
| anyone else have this problem, Yesterday when I tried to disconnect my navigation from the cigarette lighter the whole cylinder for the cigarette lighter came sliding out from the car like the clip holding it in the dash was broken or something. It still works fine and charges the navigation but I don’t want to keep pulling on it and end up snapping a wire. Anyone have any suggestions about how to fix it |

| Your car is under warranty so go to the dealer and have it fixed. This shouldn't be happening on a brand new car. Thats how you should fix it :) |

I power my XM Roady with the cig lighter. It was acting up and when I pulled out the adapter to reset the unit I experienced the same problem with the socket internals pulling out. My car is less than 2 weeks old -- this may be a common issue.
