Consumer Description

THE DASHBOARD ON MY TOYOTA CAMRY APPEARS TO BE SLOWLY MELTING LEAVING BEHIND A STICKY RESIDUE AND A SHINE ON 90% OF THE FLAT SURFACE. THE REAL HAZARD IS THAT THE SHINE ON THE DASHBOARD REFLECTS ON THE WINDSHIELD MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE ESPECIALLY IN DAYLIGHT. THE STICKINESS OF-COURSE IS A NUISANCE. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE STICKINESS IS LESS IN THE MORNING BUT INCREASES AS THE SUN COMES OUT. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER BUT THEY REFUSED TO LOOK AT IT SINCE IT IS NOT A PART THAT IS BROKEN. THEY SUGGESTED THAT I HAVE THE INTERIOR DETAILED WHICH I DON'T WANT TO DO IN THE FEAR THE SURFACE ON THE DASHBOARD WILL COME OFF! *TR
