My front ashtray is stuck. I pushed it back in after using the 12v plug to charge my phone, and now it won't open up again. Any quick fix or tricks, or should I just take it to the dealer?

TIA

If you're still under warranty let the dealer work it out. Something may be jammed in there and if you 'break' it trying to fix it it'll be on you!
