Default Lighter Not working!

I have an 02 4x4 QC 1500,
the lighter in the dash has no power, checked the fuse, and it's Ok, even replaced the fuse. Still no pwer.
Any Suggestions?

P.S. The same thing going on in Wife's car. 02 Intrepid ES. No lighter power (FUse OK)

Do you think its just lighter itself...go to Target/Walmart or whatever and get a $3 lighter and see if that helps. Weird problem?

Thought about that, but it's not the lighter. Cell phone does not work in it either, I've even stuck a test light in there and no power.
