(Thread Starter) |   Not Ranked : 0 score  AP V3 charger lock/tabs falling out. Has anyone here had a problem were the pressure/lock tabs on the sides of the V3 plug have fallien out? Mine fell out and seem to have disappeared in the depths of nothing. @Evan@COBB; have you heard of this being a problem? I'm not trying to flame or blow it out of proportion. I am not a "disgruntled" customer lol just wondering if it is a problem that has popped up before.

I have the same problem. Both the tabs on my cable have broken off, I was also wondering if it was just me or if other have had this happen.

| Not Ranked : 0 score That fucking sucks, why can't Cobb make that end like, for example, the Aim Solo? You simply screw it on/off, no fucking tabs that can break. King Scumbag likes this.

| Not Ranked : 0 score I emailed Cobb directly when that happened to my v3 cable. Cobb warrantied the cable and sent the new/replacement cable in advance along with a return shipping label for the defective cable. Was painless & fast. King Scumbag likes this.

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score AP V3 charger lock/tabs falling out. I think if more and more people have this problem it should probably be addressed. I understand they are replacing them under warranty but then what? Wait another 1 to 6 months for that replacement one to do the same?

| Not Ranked : 0 score Both mine took a shit the first few weeks, i just use a pair of small angled hex keys..in some way i don't mind incase some low life decides to try and steal it and there is no tabs to remove it they will go commit suicide instead...but they are weak as, especially after you have just done a 4th gear log with BT and still shaking trying to remove the AP to get the data
