My 03 had this problem for awhile but now it's gone. Don't know how or why.

This problem came and went on my 2003, more often in warm weather. I gave it a few careful shots of dry silicone spray last summer and I think that might have cured it.

I know this thread is a couple of weeks old. If you didn't get it fixed, maybe this will help.
