I'm having trouble ejecting the passenger side cupholder. It will sometimes work after multiple tries. Other times nothing I do will eject it. Haven't contacted the dealer yet, but was wondering if any one else has had this problem and found a solution.

I would recommend having it replaced. If it's like mine eventually it will get stuck and never come back. I'm at 42,000 miles and I'm on my 4th cupholder. My dealer has always replaced them, no questions asked. If you live in a cold climate it might have some affect on the sticking, I'm not real sure as I live in Houston. If there was one thing I would change on my 9-7x it would absolutely be the cupholders... they're awful. Unfortunately the space between the two front seats is just too narrow. :cry:

I agree. There is a lot I like about the 9-7x but the lack of 'junk' storage area around the front seats is poor. The flipout cupholder is a joke and the cupholder on the driver side is almost as bad. The odd part is that it doesn't have to be that way. Granted it is a little tight between the seats, but a little common sense engineering would have created little nooks and flat spaces to set things.
