Consumer Description

DASHBOARD IS MELTING. HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS. THE SHINY STICKY MESS CAUSES A HUGE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. IT IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND A SAFETY ISSUE. NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL! I LOVE MY VEHICLE, BUT IT IS TERRIBLE THAT I HAVE TO PUT A CARPET DASHBOARD COVER ON IT TO BE ABLE TO SEE.
