And if this keeps happening, you have an '08 so it's still under warranty, take it to the dealership.

It is not a common thing to be blowing fuses in a car. You should replace the fuse that you used, but any more than that is probably unnecessary. Just be careful to not cause the short that blew the fuse again.

That is weird our little crappy town has a 24 hour autozone.
BTW i dont buy new fuses. i just pull it out of the ones that i dont need. Got too many of them in the fuse panel any ways.

FYI - there are three spare fuses in the main fuse box in the engine compartment under the cover on the driver's side. There is also a fuse puller to make removing fuses a simpler proposition. The only bad thing is, there's no 15A, just a 10, 25, and 30A. Still, if you're unable to find a fuse, you can always install the 10A for a 15A.

Wow! great info and tips . Yep! there are 10, 25 and 30AMP spare fuses and the "useful" fuse puller as marked in the pic. 10A for 15A is temporary type of solution right- could I use that permanently?

You could as long as the device you plug in does not need more than 120 watts. I only plug in a phone charger or a radar detector so a 10A is more than enough for me. If you're plugging in an inverter or something that heats up, more than likely you'll need to use the 15A fuse.

I've had a similar problem and I took it to the dealership to have it checked out. They fixed it and have told me that the cigarette lighter by the front should not be used to charge anything. Its kind of detrimental, because the chargers r usually wider, and thus over time it widens the space. Now I just use the one beside the AUX input and hook it up to a 3-Way socket that I sticked to the side.
BTW, mine is a 08 and it was free of charge to get it fixed.
