Consumer Description

THE MELTING DASHBOARD IS CAUSING TREMENDOUS GLARE FROM SUN CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD. TOYOTA IS AWARE AND HAD A VOLUNTARY RECALL, BUT I DID NOT GET THE LETTER. WHEN I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE RECALL, I THOUGHT DATE OF FIRST USE WAS WHEN I BEGAN DRIVING THE CAR, IT IS NOT. THE SECONDARY COVERAGE FOR 10 YEARS AFTER DATE OF FIRST USE WAS 8/3/17. I CALLED TOYOTA ON 11/17/17 AND THEY SAID TOO LATE. I WENT TO TOYOTA AND CALLED CORPORATE ON 5-30-18, BUT THEY WOULD DO NOTHING. I USE A SUNSHIELD AND CAR IS MOSTLY GARAGED, BUT IT IS THE TEXAS HEAT CAUSING IT, AND I CAN'T STOP IT. I RECENTLY SAW THIS PROBLEM ON THE NEWS WITH NISSAN AND TOYOTA AND HOW DANGEROUS IT IS. THIS IS WHY I AM NOT FILING THIS REPORT.
