Get an updated cable from the dealership - should be no charge.

The interesting thing that I found is even though the iPhone doesn't indicate that the battery is charging, it must be. I've had mine plugged in to my car for 2 months now and have never charged it outside of the car.

If you have the newer iPhone or iPod you will need the new cable. Apple changed the connection on the bottom so that the charger works differently now.

Yes, that's true. If you have the iPhone 2 or lower then the cable works fine. I have the iPhone 3G which is not supposed to work with the standard cable but it seems to charge fine.

Just doesn't indicate that it is actually charging.
