Can the Bulge on the Dashboard Recover by Itself?

Can the bulge on the dashboard recover by itself? The bulge on the dashboard is caused by placing an anti-slip mat. Because the anti-slip mat absorbs heat under the sun, it may cause the dashboard to bubble. Removing the anti-slip mat and exposing it to the sun can restore it to its original state. Alternatively, you can also go to a 4S shop for repair. Concept of dashboard buttons: The buttons on the car dashboard are used to control comfort and entertainment devices such as the car air conditioner and audio system. Scope of coverage: The air conditioning control panel is usually controlled by buttons or knobs. Nowadays, the dashboard of some car models is a large touch screen, which basically covers the adjustment of basic car comfort and entertainment functions.
When I noticed the dashboard of my car was bulging, I thought it would flatten out after some sun exposure, but weeks passed with no change. This is actually a result of material aging. The plastic or leather surface on the car dashboard, when frequently exposed to sunlight or heat, can bulge due to adhesive failure. I tried using a heat gun, but it didn't work and I worried about causing more damage. Later, a friend suggested taking it to a repair shop, where they had to disassemble and inspect the interior, replacing the adhesive or the entire panel. Dashboard bulging usually doesn't fix itself because the issue lies in the internal structure, not just a surface flaw. To prevent this, it's advisable to use sunshades or car covers when parking to reduce high-temperature exposure. If your car has the same issue, don't wait for it to heal on its own—consult a professional technician early to avoid the bulge worsening, affecting both appearance and touch, and making driving uncomfortable.
