Avoid car mounts that mount your phone in front of the heater vent because: HEAT + BATTERY = BAD NEWS

Not saying that your phone will go boom but we all know that batteries just don't like heat.
If you're the type to charge your phone while in your car, then I'd avoid these types of car mounts for sure because heat coming from the vent while charging can't be a good thing.
There is one exception though. If you live in a warm climate all year around (and I hate you) then this is actually beneficial because you're running the A/C and cooling your phone while it charges.
