I did do like this: "I used lense cleaning pad to clean suction cup and the windshield where I planed to attach the GPS, and attached the cup when it was still wet".

Sorry to hear about the issues you're having with the suction cup. Please be sure both the surfaces of the both the suction cup and window are clean from dust over time. If you're keeping it hung on the window and you live in an area where climate is changing constantly you should reapply the suction cup based on temperature. Heat and cold exposure can cause the suction cup to expand and retract. If you have further questions or need a replacement please contact our support at garmin.com/support

Over time, the plastic (vinyl) suction cup loses it's pliability due to staying on a windshield that receives a lot of direct sunlight. Like most things in life, except for mosquitos, it won't last forever and needs replacment.
