Every other bump I go over and my glove box falls open. I did some poking around the latch and hook area but I didn't see anyway to make any sort of adjustment that might fix my problem.
Anybody heard of this problem, or have an idea of how to fix it. Thanks! |
I had the same problem–the slightest bump would set it off. Took it the dealer–they fixed it no problem, no charge.
Now I go over railroad tracks and it stays closed no matter what. |
My wife's LY/Bl had the same problem. I'm waiting for the 10K service to have the dealer repair it properly. There is an adjustment to the catch (you need a torx) but that didn't fix it. As an interim fix I placed a small 3/4" wood spacer above the catch (between the case of the glovebox and the dash above) to lower it. That did solve the VERY IRRITATING problem, for now.

Yeah - I had the 'glovebox issue' too... So far, it's the ONLY issue I've had :smile:
Anyway, I just took it down to my dealer and they pulled out the 'loose' glovebox and installed an new one - no charge - covered by warranty. Only took about 20 minutes....Give your dealer a call. Good luck!! :wink: - - Michael |
I'm guessing you've already tried duct tape!? :lol:
I'd say the best solution is the dealer, it's their problem, let them fix it. Get your money's worth out of them. |

Thanks for all the feedback. While my dealer isn't that far away I was hoping to avoid having to avoid the hassle of taking the time to go there.
I did a bit more poking around in the latch area and I noticed that there are two rubber "bumpers" behind the outside latch handle. If I put some pressure on the handle I could make the latch move into a more tight fitting position but then the bumpers would just push it back out of position. So what I decided to do was cut about a 1/4" off of each of the bumpers, and lo and behold, no more glove box falling open problems. |
