Consumer Description

ON FEBRUARY 2013 I HAD A FRONTAL CAR ACCIDENT DUE TO THE GLARE ON MY WINDSHIELD OF MY MELTING DASH BOARD ON MY 08 ALTIMA. MY DASHBOARD SEEMS TO BE MELTING WITH OUT NO REASON. DEALER WILL NOT REPLACE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD AS IT IS NOT PART OF A RECALL. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WHICH MAY CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT RAVEN DEATH TO A MOTORIST OR PEDESTRIAN. NISSAN NEEDS TO MAKE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS WAS A DEFECT ON THEIR BEHALF FOR THE MAJORITY OF 08 ALTIMAS. *
