That does not sound right. I complained that they kept ejecting pepsi can's, and they put the new version of the cupholders in without a single comment (under warrenty). You should complain that they keep ejecting drinks and have them repaired/replaced under warrenty.

Yes, you can. You can either buy new dashboard from junkyard or dealer, and buy a pair of cup holders.

He can't say his cupholders are ejecting drinks if he doesn't have any...

And yes, he probably does need, at minimum, new dash component(s).

But it might be better to get an aftermarket cupholder that can install somewhere else...some are fairly nice. You might try searching here (don't know if there has been discussion on aftermarket ones specifically).
