WOW!..After reading this thread, it made me paranoid enough for me to just go out to the garage and apply another coat of Aerospace Protectant 303 to the dash.

I have a 2010, with less than 50K that I bought used with the certified pre-owned warranty. I think it kicks in after the factory warranty expires, but I'm not sure. The dash looks horrible bubbled up. Terrible workmanship for such a high end car. If it's not covered by the original warranty I can't see paying 3-5K to fix it. I was thinking of using a syringe to inject some adhesive. I don't think you would notice a small pin hole in that area.

My car is past warranty has anyone tried any MCgiver like fixes? My leather has moved outward on both sides of the speaker.
{imagination now needed} Im thinking maybe some type of mechanism that has retractable arms and some sort duhicky that extends and shortens the arms thus pulling the leather in closer and maybe some type of adhesive to eventually hold the leather in place. Any Ideas. Im no way interested in paying 3-5k to fix this leather

I just bought a 2010 XF with 40k miles. The dash was fine at the dealer when I bought it but now after a month bubbles appeared. It is hot here in Florida and the previous owner must have kept it garaged. Definitely out of warranty. Any suggestions on gluing it myself? A little hole or cut. How about some Fuzit or so? What is beneath the leather? A solid piece of sheet metal?
