How to Fix a Warped Buick Excelle Dashboard?
2 Answers
If the dashboard warping issue occurs during the car's warranty period, you can contact after-sales service for relevant handling. If the car dashboard warping problem appears after the warranty period has expired, you can go to an auto repair shop for treatment. You can try to repair the car dashboard yourself using glass glue, strong adhesive, or hot melt adhesive. To prevent the car dashboard from continuing to delaminate, warp, or deform, remember to cover the car with a sunshade. Purchase a sunshade and cover the glass with it.
The dashboard warping on a Buick Excelle is usually caused by adhesive aging or high-temperature deformation, which I've encountered several times. When repairing it yourself, first park in a shady area to let the interior cool down. Clean the dust and old adhesive from the warped area, wiping it thoroughly with alcohol. Then choose 3M double-sided tape or special automotive interior adhesive, apply it slowly, and press the warped part back into place firmly. Wait 12 hours for it to set before driving to avoid detachment from shaking. Be careful not to touch the wiring under the dashboard during the operation, as this could cause a short circuit. If the warping is too severe or there are cracks, it's better not to force a DIY fix—getting a new panel at a professional shop is more reliable. For regular maintenance, park in the shade and use a sunshade to prevent this issue from recurring.
