The lid of the central armrest got a "twist" recently and the hinges have failed. Don't think this repairable. Has this happened to anyone? How much needs to be changed?

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Its very frequent in eralier models were the hinges were plastic. It has an easy fix, they replace them with metal ones.

Here's the bit you need, part number is on the bag You don't need to remove the console to fit it. It has to be the easiest of fixes. Takes about 20 minutes max and costs about $10.
