I recently had some warranty work done on my accord and in the process the dealer marked up my dash next to the radio. The dealer attempted to repair the vinyl by heating the dash and pulling the dent out. You can still see the dent and the heating process gave the dash a melted look to it. The dealer offered to replace the dash, but warned me that this leads to a lot of rattles etc. Is this correct? Should I replace the dash or should I live with the damage done to the car? Are there any other possible cover up options I can install in the car? The location is to the left of the radio on the edge of the vinyl. Thanks

 

have them replace the dash

they messed up, it happens, but they should fix it and there is no reason it should rattle
