Ashboard Plastic in My Suzuki Every Is Fading and Cracking – Is This Common in Pakistan?

I own a 2015 Suzuki Every, and the dashboard plastic has started to fade and crack, especially near the windshield. I park mostly under the sun in Lahore. Is this a common issue with imported Every models in Pakistan? What can I do to prevent further damage?

Yes, it’s a common issue in Pakistan, especially in cities like Lahore, Karachi, and Multan where vehicles are exposed to direct sunlight. The plastic on the dashboard in JDM Suzuki Every vans is not UV-protected for Pakistan’s climate, so over time it:

Fades, cracks, o r even peels

Becomes brittle, especially near the front glass

How to prevent/fix it:

Use a dashboard sunshade when parking outdoors.

Apply UV protectant sprays like Armor All o r Formula 1.

For existing cracks, use dashboard repair kits o r covers.

A full dashboard replacement is costly and rare – usually not recommended unless severely damaged.
