Consumer Description

THE DASHBOARD IS BREAKING DOWN (MELTING) CAUSING IT TO BE EXTREMELY SHINY AND STICKY. AS WELL AS OMITTING A GAS WHICH HAS CAUSED A SEVERE GLARE ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD. THIS HAS MADE IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. LEXUS HAD MY VEHICLE IN SEPTEMBER OF 2016 TO FIX AN OIL HOSE RECALL AND PURPOSELY DID NOT MAKE ME AWARE OF THE FAULTY DASHBOARD ISSUE,( SAID THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO) THEREFORE, I MISSED THE WINDOW TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED AT THEIR EXPENSE. LEXUS REFUSES TO MAKE THIS ISSUE A RECALL WHICH HAS AFFECTED THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES.
