I lost my charge port cover.

[Joe Dablock]

My wife clipped my Lightning backing up while it was charging and nocked the plastic cove off the charging port door. I snapped it back on but then she did it again. So finally it just fell off and was lost. I tried to order the cover but had to order the entire assembly. But then got informed the part was out of stock. I have now ordered the same part from a different supplier and waiting. Shame is all I really need is the cover. Has anyone else had this problem and how did you reach a conclusion?

Can't help on the cover but if you use a tiny bungee cord, you can keep the charging door closed slightly to help this from happening again

Yes, others have posted, it happens to the best of us.

did you reach a conclusion?

Conclusion is your wife needs practice (or training) driving in close proximity to objects.

Sounds to me like someone needs to park in a different place.

Check eBay for the part. I replaced the broken Sunglass holder in the ceiling console and bought it on eBay.

You might want to order more than one......

Wife?

Based on the cost of parts, it would probably be cheaper to order a new wife.

Thanks for the advice! I did watch a video on how to remove and install the charge port door (if I ever get a replacement!).

Pretty sure this is one of those fool me once shame on me, fool me twice..... type of situations. You should know your wife better than anyone else, this might be your fault......

If it were me, I would trade the truck or trade the wife.

Found one on Ebay, but turned out to be a little too generic.

I struggle with the one I have, cannot imagine having more than one.

I am 100% sure it is his fault, whether it is or not...
