2018 Ford edge cupholder rubber band routing?

[Cobra4fun]

So I took my cupholder apart on my wife’s 2018 Ford Edge because the beverage retention tabs weren’t working and loose.  I found out that the clear colored rubber band had come loose that pushes IN all the retainers to hold beverages in the cupholders.  
 

Does anybody have pictures or a diagram of how this clear rubber band is supposed to be routed around the cup holder retention tabs???  
 

It looks like it goes around every tab twice at the top and bottom

I figured it out. See the photos below for the proper routing.  I had one of the small broken tabs that needed to be JB welded back on.  That’s why the “rubber band” came loose.  Fixing it now.  On the first photo below the cup holder on the Right-side in the photo is a mirror image of the loop on the left.  I was repairing my tab so I didn’t show it.

Interesting.  Any idea as to how the band came loose?

[Cobra4fun]

Yep, this specific tab (red arrow) that the rubber band wraps around, broke free slightly to allow the rubber band to come off.

 

Now I know why the cupholder retainers weren’t working and we’re rattling in the car.  A little JB Weld should repair it so I can wrap the rubber band back around it.

This is good to know.

Thank you for the how-to.

 

I bought my 17 new with the cup holder fingers loose. Warranty replaced the entire assembly. Was probably this same tab broken.

Luckily this has not happened again, but good to know how to fix it if it does.

Awesome man.  Thanks for the write-up and the pics.  Mine are good right now, but it's something to tuck away and remember...hopefully!
