Consumer Description

I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED ON MARCH 2010. AT FIRST I THOUGHT THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD SPRAYED SOMETHING ON THE DASH TO CLEAN IT. THE DASH WAS REFLECTING THE SUN SO BAD THAT WE FINALLY BOUGHT A COVER AND INSTALLED IT. THIS HAS BEEN A LIFE SAVER! I SAW ANOTHER PERSON ON TV WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, AND THIS PROMPTED ME TO DO SOME MORE RESEARCH. IT IS TRUE THAT THE ENTIRE DASH BOARD IS MELTING! I WAS UNDER WARRANTY WHEN I BOUGHT IT AND PAID FOR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 4 YEARS. MY WARRANTY JUST RAN OUT IN APRIL AND I HAVE NOT RENEWED IT AT THIS TIME. I DID MENTION TO MY LEXUS DEALER ABOUT THE ISSUE WHILE I WAS UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO CORRECT IT FOR SOME REASON. EVEN WHEN I TOLD HIM THAT THE GLARE WAS SO BAD, HE STILL COULD NOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM. SO I WOULD LIKE TO ADD MYSELF TO THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME CONCERNS AS MINE. *TR
