Description of the problem	I noticed around this time that the latch holding the center console shut in my 06 sonata was loose. I tried to put it back into place, but it then broke free in my hands. The console will fling open over most speed bumps. I'm worried in a crash that anything inside of it will fly all over the place. Plus there is a potential for this to surprise the driver and cause a crash. A local dealership will be replacing the whole console, but i wanted to file a report and see whether or not this is an isolated incident.
