Any one have this on their dash?

Hi everyone,

Does anyone else get these from using phone/gps mount on their dash. Is this permanent or is there a way to fix this? It just looks ugly as hell.....

You can try to get it out with a hairdryer.

Agree with the hairdryer idea, but on low or medium heat and don’t concentrate in one place for any length of time ... keep moving the air flow from top-to-bottom and side-to-side.

Have seen this warning before by several members here. At least nobody could get rid of this mark at the time, including applying the heat. It seems to be permanent.

Park it in the sun for a while and see what happens.

Was that caused by a suction cup or adhesive mount?

Should be suction cup.

Should be suction cup.

That's what I assumed, but I would think a suction cup wouldn't hold a vacuum due to the textured surface.

You’d think so but this circle mark is all caused by suction cup based on previous reports, and the plastic textured surface is basically deformed by the vacuum power over time.
