TECHNICAL
Subject:
Front Floor Rear Console Cupholder Does Not Properly Retain Drink Containers (Install Updated Rear Console Cupholder Liner)
Models:
2007 Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe
2007 GMC Denali, Sierra, Yukon Models
with Center Console (RPO D07)
Condition
Some customers may comment that the front floor rear console cupholder can not retain drink containers while driving.
Cause
The current rear console cupholder mats do not have any retainers to properly hold the container while turning or accelerating, causing the container to tip over or fall out.
Correction
Replace the existing mats with the updated one piece cupholder liner using the procedure below:
Open the front floor rear console cupholder assembly.
Remove the existing two rear cupholder mats. Refer to the graphic above.
Discard the old cupholder mats.
Obtain an updated cupholder liner. The liner will have four outer tabs and inner retainers.
The four outer tabs will not allow the cup liner to seat properly into the rear cupholder assembly causing a poor fit and a gap.
Carefully cut off the two front outer tabs (1), referring to the graphic above, and cut off the two back outer tabs.
Install the updated rear console cup liner as shown above.
Close the console cupholder assembly.
