Mechanic claims blemish in car 'caused by air freshener', not cigarette

When STOMPer Anthony got his car back from the workshop, he found a blemish that looked like a cigarette burn mark at the air-con vent. When the STOMPer confronted the mechanic, the latter claimed that the blemish was caused by the air freshener bottle.

The STOMPer said:

"My car met an accident last week and was sent to this workshop at Autobay Kaki Bukit for repair.

"I noticed this mark at the air-con area and feel that it is a cigarette burn mark, so I went back to the workshop.

"The rude and loud mechanic there claimed that it was the 'Glade' air freshener that created that mark when it was not even being placed there in the first place.

"Please give me your view. Can the air freshener bottle cause the mark or is it a cigarette burn mark?"

It is the air freshener. I stopped using these liquid type as it had "melt" portion of my dashboard surface. You will never know when it will leak.

Confirm is air freshener. If the liquid inside get into contact with plastic, the plastic will "melt"

Airfresheners contains surfactants, diluent and solvents. From this I guess you'll know that they have a certain degree of reactivity to paint and/or plastics. Not the least surprised.

Anyway there are some users here who have already noticed that first...!
