If the dashboard warping issue occurs during the car's warranty period, you can contact after-sales service for relevant handling. If the car's warranty period has expired but the dashboard warping issue occurs, you can go to an auto repair shop for handling.
I've been repairing cars for decades and have seen many cases of Buick Excelle dashboard glue failure. This is usually caused by high summer temperatures inside the car or material aging compromising the factory adhesive. Before repair, thoroughly clean the separated area, using anhydrous alcohol to remove dust and grease. Choosing the right adhesive is crucial - I recommend automotive interior-specific glue like 3M brand, which is heat-resistant and strong. Apply the glue evenly, press firmly for two minutes, then use weights to secure for half an hour to ensure proper bonding. Small gaps can be handled DIY, but for large-scale loosening, dashboard reinstallation might be necessary - better left to professionals. Using sunshades when parked helps prevent glue failure by reducing direct sunlight exposure. A loose dashboard isn't just unsightly - the rattling noise while driving can distract you, and safety comes first. During regular maintenance, check the adhesive condition - interior aging is a common issue with Buick Excelle, so early repair extends lifespan.
