Warped dashboard by middle AC vents
We've been having a massive heat wave in Southern California, and I noticed today that my dashboard around my center AC vents looks like its warping....have others been experiencing this? Anyone have it replaced through warranty?

I just checked mine and I believe I have the same issue. Above the right vent the dash is slightly raised and I can push is down to hear it sqeak.
I live in Miami so it's been warm most. Had the car since Dec 2013 Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk |

This was noticed last summer:
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=41323 Noticed it on mine as well, it hasn't grown since I noticed it but like you guys I worry about it getting worse. Seems like the adhesive isn't capable of taking the temperatures of a black dashboard in the summer.

Had my entire dash replaced because of this. Glad I did, as it gets worse looking and looks like shit.

definitely going to monitor it. I just placed an order for a Covercraft sun shade to replace my generic one, so I hope that helps. I'm going to continue to monitor it, if it gets worse I'll have no choice but to have the entire dash replaced

I tinted my windshield in hopes to prevent this.
