There has been a discussion about this a couple of weeks ago. The dash can mean that some objects in a selection have Overprint on. But often it is just false alarm and should not be worried about.

In doubt, turn View > Overprint Preview on.

If white objects disappear, they are still set to Overprint and you should select them and turn it off.

If nothing changes, turn View > Overprint Preview off and don't worry about it.
