Default Uneven glove box

I have noticed my glove box is sinking on one side. I have tried remounting and securing all the screws. Doesn't help. Has anyone had this and been able to fix it?

The 2004 Shop Manual describes the adjustment and should solve your problems.
Go to section 23, page 141
The dealer who says that they are all like that is lying, they are good at that as it is a prerequisite to get the job and then they get more practice. Remember a few dollars more profit is more important than good customer relations at most stealerships, sad but true.
How do you get a job at a stealership? You lie on your resume.

Thanks for finding that!!! I'll give that a try. I have the same glovebox tilt issue and it bugs me too.

You know, when I tore it apart and put it back together last time, I did notice that little latch could be adjusted. I toyed with moving it around, far enough so the latch would catch and lock, but still seemed to sag. I suppose I should give it another shot. Will let you know how it turns out.

Any possible way someone would be willing to post. I do not have access to shop manual at the current time, unless there is one online....

I had the same issue and found that readjusting the latch back (towards the front of the car) so it closes a little tighter fixed it...well its better than it was. its a t-15? torx and a bizzare yoga position to get at it.

This is funny... I thought I was the only one who noticed it. I looked into adjusting mine, but it didn't appear to have an appropriate way to correct it. I soon realized that every Crossfire I saw interior photos of had the exact same problem, so I figured (as the dealership said) they are all like that. I'm going to give the shop manual instructions a try.

I've poked the glovebox every time I look at it for 3 months now (like a kitchen cabinet that doesn't shut right). I can't wait to fix this tonight as it's the one thing on the interior that's been bugging me non-stop.

I'm waiting for someone to step up to the plate and get the interior done up in leather and bright stitching like you get on a Ferrari or Lamborghini...
