F02 Astray Gremlin

A few months back the front ashtray cover froze in the closed position in my F02 (I use the port in there for phone charging). Dealer replaced the whole thing (8 weeks from Germany). It just happened again. Exact same symptoms. WTF? Anyone suffering from this gremlin?

Sucks that it happened. But it never happened to mine. I do know that the the tray for bottles do easily come off which might cause the froze position.

Also in the Insideline long term car review of the F01 750i, there was an incident that it also came off or froze.

Good luck with the bay area dealer!
