    The other day I was getting ready to use the 12V power outlet. The left one seemed kinda loose, like the bezel could twist slightly, left to right, but didn't move when I tugged on it to pull it out. Does anyone else notice this, too? The 12V power outlet on the right seemed tight with very little side to side movement. Please note, my truck is only a couple of months old and I've only used the outlet twice for my Garmin GPS unit. Should I be concerned and or just ignore it?

    I just noticed this on my left one last night. Mine comes out and stops working unless I push it in. I might have to open everything up to see what the deal is.

    My 2013 Tacoma left power outlet is loose, wiggles side to side some. It works and doesn't come out, but feels loose. Don't know how to tighten it.
