I know Ferrari had problems in the 90s with the leather shrinking and pulling up the whole dashboard (ie the opposite of an adhesive failure). I'm specifically talking about 2015+ cars with real leather dashboards having adhesive failures. My 2005 Cayenne Turbo, 2007 911 4S, 2011 Jag XJ have no issues with full leather. My friends cars of similar vintage with full leather interiors have no problems with any delamination. However I am seeing all over the place problems with newer Cayenne's, X5s, AMG GTs, Astons etc that are 'it's not if, it's when' thing happening with the leather dashes. Was some high VOC glue that worked outlawed in the past decade? What is the deal? I love leather dashes but there seem to be SO many having problems now that I am reconsidering getting them on a modern vehicle.
