Has anyone had an issue with loose wires falling out from under the dash. These keep falling down near the clutch. I can’t figure out where these are supposed to be supported. Seems like maybe there should be a panel there.

Isn't that where your OBD2 port is supposed to be? Looks like there is something (alarm, GPS tracker, aftermarket something??) plugged into it.

I did have a dash cam installed by my dealership, so it could be from that. I may have to bring it back to them to take a look at it. I definitely would have expected there to be a panel of some sort holding in the wiring.
Anyone know if that metal bracket there is supposed to holding something in place?

Yeah I think so too. The only way to get it fixed is to go back to the person who installed it and hide the wires better behind the dash.

In your pic where the connector says OBD-II, the male side of that joint is the factory OBD-2 port and was originally mounted to that silver rectangular bracket. Your dealer used some sort of universal adapter to power your dashcam and did a sloppy job of it.

Much appreciated! I suspected something of that sort. It was done almost a year ago, so I’m surprised it’s taken this long to start falling out.
