Good question. I haven't used this in extreme heat yet. It's been in the 80s and worked just fine. I'm really impressed how well it holds my iPhone and stays on the windshield. It's not adhered by adhesive. It has a lever you move in the up position and them place where you want it and then move lever down and stays. Seems like it's a suction deal. I would think it would work fine in extreme heat.

Hi... yes it will... it works great if u attach it directly to the windshield ... but the disc will come off in the heat if it is attached to the dashboard

I've had mine mounted for about 2 years now in a vertical position next to my radio & it is still perfectly secure. We live in southern NJ where temps range from 100 degrees down to 5 degrees & no problems at all. Hope this helps. :-)

Adhesive?? I don't remember there being adhesive. This product was BAD.. I bought an iOttie HLCrio102 dash mount. It's awesome

It comes with double sided sticky tape. It is fairly thin, so pretty unnoticeable (doesn't create lift to the mounting plate). So you can pull off the mount plate later, and scrub off the double sided sticky tape off your dash.

The adhesive and suction are very strong an sturdy. I have mine stuck to my dashboard and I do not remove it. However I'm sure, as with most adhesive backings, that if u keep removing it, it will probably wear down. I don't know about that company's policy on replacements.

I have a Honda Accord 2007, dash is textured. From the time I placed it on the dash, I have not removed it once. So far, its sticking. My concern is if I take if off, I won't be able to place it on again. Since I purchased it when the weather was starting to cool down, I'm not sure how heat will affect it. But so far, I'm still very happy with the product. I use it daily due to my job.

I absolutey the Arkon mount, in fact I bought one for my other car. Most of the windshield mounts fall off when it gets really hot outside, not this mount. It stays stuck like glue until you want to remove it.

It's been in my windshield for a couple months and I haven't had to reposition it once. It doesn't stick to my dashboard nearly as well as either of my Exogear Exomount car mounts though. If you're looking for a dashboard mount, get an Exogear Exomount!

The product is meant to protect something from heat, not to wrap "heat" and keep it in to protect "the outside". So it depends how hot the oven becomes. The adhesive side might not like to be in direct contact with a very hot surface. If the oven is sort of hot, that's probably OK. It is very hot, then you may want to consider coating something else next to it that may suffer from the heat. I hope this is helpful for what that's worth...

You can apply some pressure as you mount the unit to the windscreen. Cleaning the silicone surface from time to time does help. Or there may be some temperature differences as when you mount the unit and it then gets exposed to sunlight, where the air inside the mount expands. Anyway, even with a secure mounting, it won't stick forever (over a course of several days), so you might have to remount occasionally. I usually detach the unit whenever I have to park the car in the middle of sunlight for extended number of hours. I didn't do so with my previous unit and it bluetooth appeared to stop functioning as I assumed the electronics should have been worn due to excessive heat.

Two suggestions: First and foremost, when first installing the disc, make sure it's on a flat section of your dashboard and pile books on it for the first few days whenever the vehicle is not in use. This will allow the adhesive to "cure" before you attach your GPS bracket or the bracket for some other device. Secondly, try to use those aluminum foil windshield shades whenever possible and throw a wash cloth over the GPS to shade the adhesive disc whenever you're not driving the vehicle. We do this in NC where the sun is also hot and it's been working.Paul Baragona Raleigh, NC USA Two suggestions: First and foremost, when first installing the disc, make sure it's on a flat section of your dashboard and pile books on it for the first few days whenever the vehicle is not in use.

My Trailblazer has a slightly curved dashboard top also along groves all over the surface. To my surprise, it stuck to the surface and still has not come off even with this hot weather. As I previously mentioned, just make sure you wipe the surface down (I used Windex) and let it dry before you mount.

After a year I had mine melt into the dash one day in Seattle. I have a review with pictures in that section. It has seen hotter weather but something about today (68 degrees measured in the shade) and it decided to melt.

If you are using the extension you probably want to remove it. Also, since your unit came with two suction cups, you might want to have them in line with the direction of travel. You could also place the mount on the windshield rather than the hood. Since that is a long piece of flat metal, it may actually be flexing. Just some thoughts.

The suction cup windshield mount comes off if left in the sun. Not sure how much heat the camera can take before having problems.

The back peels off. It is self-adhesive like a tape. Make sure the roof surface is dry and as clean as possible for best results. This is really a great product. If you can, I have found it's best to apply it when it's sunny so it can bake on once applied.

Mine came off once and I think it was because of the extreme heat but I was able to stick it right back on without any problem.
