    I searched but I do not see anyone else has posted about this.

    Anyone have an issue with the latch on the middle armrest breaking? I can only lift in one area to get the little nubbins to move enough to get into it now. It's like a piece of the spring mechanism gave out.

    did you ever get a fix for this?
    My center console / armrest came off its rear hinge. I've tried unscrewing the underside and snapping it back into place but the strong spring makes it pop back out again. Any ideas how to repair this?

    I had no luck finding any help on this. I'm still using a broken latch. With the warmer weather I would love to find a fix so I can work on it.
