I'm guessing yours may be getting UV damage from constant exposure combined with wear.

Regardless.....I'm confident MK will fix you up.

When not in use, the remote normally stays on the front seat of my truck or it comes in the house. It's only exposed to the elements when I'm fishing. There's nothing wrong with the buttons themselves, just to rubber seal. Exposure to UV, water, and wear are normal for a top of the line outdoor sporting product. MK did not balk at my repairman's request to replace the rubber under my warranty, so I have no complaints about the service. I'm just surprised that a best-of-breed product is falling apart like this and would caution other owners to keep an eye on the rubber seal. Once it starts cracking, water begins seeping in, the display fogs, and more serious damage can't be far behind.
