Dodge Challenger dashboard discoloration issue resembling sun fade after winter storage on Dodge Challenger

Problem overview

Some Dodge Challenger owners report experiencing dashboard discoloration resembling sun fade after winter storage, likely caused by freezing temperatures that lead to oils and chemicals in the dash leeching out and drying in the air. This issue is common but can be alleviated by warming the car's interior. To prevent future occurrences, some owners suggest leaving the windows slightly down to allow the interior to breathe, which is particularly important for new cars to avoid hazing of the dash. Additionally, avoiding locking the doors can help prevent battery drain from the alarm system.
