Does your case have a magnetic claps to keep the case closed?

 

That is how the Car Dock knows when to activate, although when you remove the phone, it should go back to normal operation.

 

Maybe a clear cache could help.

Actually if you case has a magnet on it to keep it closed that is your issue, this has been a common issue with some cases...  If you do not use the dock you can get Dock Nothingness from the Market at https://market.android.com/details?id=net.geekherd.docknothingness&feature=search_result , this allows you to bypas the app avtivating when placed near a magnet or dock.

I purchased a third-party case and this happened all the time. Nothing serious, but annoying. I took it to a Verizon Store and the clerk asked me where I bought my case. I told him from a kiosk vender at one of the malls. He then told me about the magnet and what it will do. So, I bit the bullet and purchased a case made specifically for the Droid X. Never had that problem again.
