My 2011 does the same, though only when over steadily bumpy pavement or large potholes. Don't know of a fix.

I have the brushed aluminum trim available for sale. If yours is brushed, it would come with the glove box door if you wanted a replacement.

Hey man, just offering trying to help... check the fuse for the glove box. There is an auto locking feature that may not be working. I've heard of the opposite where the glove box won't open, but worth a shot.
