Damn it, now mine started bubbling Anyone actually had their dash replaced? If so, do you have any problems because of it? I am very weary about letting the dealership do this.

My dash also started to bubble. Took it to the dealer and they replaced the dash. It took the dealer two days to replace it.

I'm afraid of having it replaced and the new dash doing the same thing. I would think they would have fixed this problem for the 07 models.

Has anyone that has had their dash replaced had any issues afterwards? Rattles, fit issues, or has the new dash bubbled?

I am dissapointed to hear about this and extremely happy that I have no sign of it whatsoever on my 06.

Our local dealer tech told me one came off the truck with bubbling and he had to take down the whole dash and redo it. Said it was a pretty quick job but I would absolutely hate to have that done to my car.

i have very few of these 'bubbles', they are almost impossible to see, but in the right light, you can focus in on them. for you guys that do have some bubbles, do you notice that if you run your fingers over them...in those areas, it seems that the dash gets softer, sorta sinks in? this is what i noticed.

Can't you just take a sewing pin and make a hole in the middle of the bubble to let it air out? I remember doing this to stickers and you can't see the hole at all.
