I ordered a super sized drink that was too large to fit in the cup holder, so I sat the drink in the center console to keep it stabile while I drove home. A car drove thru the stop sign without stopping and I had to make a sudden stop and the drink tipped over in the console. I removed the console thinking I can wipe off whatever I can wipe off, let the area air dry for a day or two then put it back together and it would be alright. However, the light remained on while driving.
