Consumer Description

MY 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA COUPE 2.5S' DASHBOARD IS MELTING GIVING OFF TOXIC FUMES AND MAKING MY VISIBILITY TERRIBLE WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE THE MELTING/STICKY DASHBOARD REFLECTS INTO THE WINDSHIELD AND NISSAN REFUSES TO FIX IT FOR FREE. THE REFLECTION IN THE WINDSHIELD IS PARTICULARLY WORSE WHEN DRIVING TOWARDS THE SUN TO THE POINT WHERE I CANNOT SEE ANYTHING WHILE DRIVING. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE WITH THE DASHBOARD LIKE THAT BECAUSE I FIGURED THAT GOOEY GONE COULD FIX IT BUT IT DIDN'T. AGAIN NISSAN REFUSES TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS VERY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING.
