Under construction
Millions of years from now, Phobos will disentegrate due to tidal forces and form a planetary ring. However, Terraforming would increase atmospheric drag on Phobos, potentially causing it to collide with Mars. Moreover, Phobos is a problem to the construction of a space elevator.
Deorbit
One solution is to deorbit Phobos and allow it to collide with Mars.
