Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD THIS DASHBOARD PROBLEM WITH MY CAR AFTER THE FIRST YEAR IT WAS PURCHASED FROM CARMAX. I SAW A POST ONLINE TO WHERE I CAN MAKE A COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS AND HOPEFULLY GET IT REPAIRED. MY DASHBOARD HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT TO WHERE IF I DO NOT HAVE SUNGLASSES ON, I CAN NOT SEE OUT OF MY WINDSHIELD BECAUSE OF THE GLARE THAT SHINES OFF OF MY DASHBOARD. I CAN NOT CLEAN IT OR WIPE IT OFF BECAUSE IT IS SO STICKY. I FIND THIS VERY FRUSTRATING AND VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE I CAN NOT SEE THE ROAD DURING THE DAY BECAUSE THE SUN REFLECTS SO HEAVILY OFF OF THIS GLUE LIKE SUBSTANCES THAT MY DASHBOARD HAS TURNED INTO. I AM CURRENTLY A STUDENT AT A UNIVERSITY AND I WAS FORCED TO BUY A PARKING PASS IN A GARAGE(WHICH IS TWICE THE PRICE OF A REGULAR PARKING PASS) IN ORDER TO NOT LET MY DASHBOARD MELT ANYMORE THAN IT ALREADY HAS. I AM HOPING THAT YOU GUYS CAN SOMEHOW PUSH TO MAKE TO MAKE TOYOTA/LEXUS FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR
