Has anyone else's dash turned into a sticky pad?

Instead of window shades, I use a DASHMAT.

They are custom made for an exact fit, all for about $50. They also stop any glare from reflecting off the top of the dash into your eyes. I buy the SuedeMat style for all my vehicles.

After cleaning mine with plexus all the stickiness is gone..... Kind of expensive but works awesome.

I just washed my truck and was trying to get some dog hair off my dash and noticed I couldn't get it off. Then on closer inspection I noticed there plastic pieces on the dash that are getting hit by the sun are incredibly sticky. I mean if I touch it... my finger literally sticks to it... and I just can't get the hair off. Truck is still under warranty as it's a 2018 but what a joke that it can't handle the uv light / heat.

This may be an issue with the plastic that was used to form the dashboard. The technicians who were forming it may have forgotten to add in the UV/AO additive.....and the sun has now damaged the plastic. You might need to take it in to the dealer and complain about it.

I use 303 Aerospace Protectant on the dash.

That stuff looks good and it's cheaper than plexis I may give that a try.

Might literally be the ugliest and worst idea I have ever seen for a vehicle. Buy a Windshield reflector and save from having to put that in your vehicle. Now if you didnt use the reflector and your dash looks like a bag of doritos, then yes, do that dash carpet. But oh man, try to avoid that if you can.

Lmao this reminds me of a dude wearing a toupee, thinking it looks amazing and nobody knows, but secretly everyone is laughing at him. This is exactly what this dash mat is.

As someone who had his dash literally shatter when it was otherwise pristine, the dash mat was a great option. Later they started using molded plastic caps that looked factory-ish which are a better option IMO.
