What the hell is up with the overhead console?

Huh? My damn overhead console's buttons seem to hate me. Every time I push one, they don't do jack s**t and then they STAY in the console instead of popping back out. I have to give it a good bit** slap to get them to pop out. Frankly, my hand hurts. Help me please!!!

It sounds as if the buttons are gummed up. Try shooting them with a bit of contact cleaner from Radio Shack, or perhaps some WD-40.

my dome button is doing the same. I just push it in real far, and then slide my finger off to the side so it pops itself out real hard. Seems to work for me.
