    I had the car interiorly detailed and seems from all the humidity that some moisture got under the dashboard display (the one that shows your mph and amount of gas left, not the mpg/radio/climate touchscreen). Is there a easy and/or good fix? Thanks in advance.

    Note that the speedometer display is reflected from a window on the dashboard. Stand outside the car on the driver's side and look at the dashboard to find the window. Maybe, if you clean the top of the window, the problem will go away. If the moisture is really under the window then it will be difficult to remove.

    Actually, you're right - Thanks. To clarify, the window you are referring to is on the horizontal level surface of the dashboard. It is not really visible form the outside of car. But it in front of the (mph, fuel) display.
