loose shift knob

I recently noticed that my shift knob has become loose and can swivel (slightly) both clockwise and counter-clockwise. Has anyone else experienced this? In addition, is there a simple way to solve this problem?

Yeah just push it back down. I got the shift knob and shifter replaced under warranty, and it never happened since. But try to not shift like you're pulling a slot machine handle down.

Thanks Superchargedman. It worked like a charm. It's back on tight. Hopefully it stays that way.
