Consumer Description

I'M REPORTING ON MY 08 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE DASHBOARD HAS A SHINE TO IT AND IS STICKY. IT HAS BEEN GETTING WORST OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS. IT HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT WHERE I CAN'T EVEN WIPE THE DASHBOARD OFF TO CLEAN IT. I HAVE TO BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL AROUND THE DASHBOARD OR BITS AND PIECES OF THE VINYL WILL COME OFF EXPOSING THE FOAM LAYER UNDERNEATH. THIS HAS ALREADY HAPPENED BY MY DRIVER SIDE AC VENT WHILE CLEANING THE DASH OVER A YEAR AGO. THE SHINE OF THE DASHBOARD CAUSES A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD FROM THE SUN AND ONCOMING CARS AT NIGHT. I CONTACTED TOYOTA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ALSO MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP BOTH WHICH REFUSED TO ADMIT THAT IT WAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND WOULD NOT REPLACE OR DISCOUNT ANY REPAIRS. HOPEFULLY THIS WILL BE FIXED AND ANYONE ELSE WHO IS EXPERIENCING THESE PROBLEM AND MYSELF CAN HAVE PIECE OF MIND OF OUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OUR PASSENGERS NOT TO MENTION OUR INVESTMENT. *TR
