I noticed power outlets were loose info dealership, panel was loose as well, dealership replaced a pin and fix pwr outlets. This was in Feb. . A month later power outlet panel loose again, dealership replaced pin, this has been happening so many times now, this time power outlet panel as fell to the floor board, I can't brake to well or accelerate with a panel by my feet. I have use the power outlet to run a dvd player and cell phone charger, panel has not drop after pulling the charger out, of power outlets. . Just when I'm driven down the road it falls, I have had another dealership look at thee problem and was info that thee panel was bad. I took it to another shop other than Toyota also got panel is worn and vibrations is making thee panel to fall. . . So I only know I have a panel laying on my floor board its hard to brake or to accelerate.
