2007 LEXUS ES Structure Problems

I RECENTLY READ ABOUT THE ISSUE WITH THE LEXUS IS MODEL BEING GIVEN A TECHNICAL ADVISORY FOR THE BREAKDOWN OF THE DASHBOARD AND I WAS WONDERING WHY THIS PROBLEM IS ONLY ADDRESSED ON THE IS MODEL AND NOT THE ES AS WELL. I AM AN ES 2007 OWNER WHO IS AND HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM FOR MANY MONTHS NOW. I WAS TOLD BY LEXUS THAT TO REPLACE IT WOULD COST $3000 AND I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED THE INSTRUMENT PANELS ON THE STEERING WHEEL FOR THE SAME PROBLEM WHERE THE RUBBER HAS BROKEN DOWN AND DISINTEGRATED. I AM ANGRY BECAUSE THIS IS A LEXUS FOR GOD'S SAKE. I RECENTLY ASKED MY INSURANCE COMPANY IF I COULD CLAIM THIS DAMAGE AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD HEARD OF THE SAME PROBLEM IN 2007 TOYOTA'S AND IS'S AND THAT TOYOTA ISSUED A RECALL. MY THING IS IF TOYOTA ISSUED A...

I PURCHASED A CERTIFIED USED 2007 LEXUS ES 350 IN 2010 WITH APPROXIMATELY 26,000 MILES. IN 2014, I LEFT THE LEXUS IN MY FLORIDA PARKING LOT FOR THE SUMMER (MAY-OCTOBER). WHEN I RETURNED FROM NEW YORK, THE ENTIRE LEXUS DASHBOARD HAD MELTED! DUE TO THE MELTING, THERE IS A SHINY GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO SEE. I BELIEVE THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. I PAID A LOT OF MONEY FOR THIS CAR, AND THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECT. LEXUS SHOULD RECALL THESE CARS AND FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR

THE DASH BOARD ON MY CAR IS MELTING THE GLARE IS VERY BAD MAKES DRIVING ON A SUNNY DAY VERY DANGEROUS CAR IS NOT SAFE. *TR

DASHBOARD STICKY AND SHINY CAN BARELY SEE WHEN IT'S SUNNY OUTSIDE. *TR

I HAVE A COMPLAINT ABOUT MY ES 350 LEXUS 207. THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PROBLEM. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY ISSUES. THIS IS MY SECOND LEXUS AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE FIRST ONE; (DASHBOARD) ES 300 LEXUS (2003). I HOPE THERE WILL BE AN INVESTIGATION ABOUT THIS MATTER. THANK YOU *TR

I'M RESPONDING TO THE SEGMENT I SAW ON THE NEWS REGARDING THE MELTING DASHBOARDS. I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE LEXUS DEALERSHIP BACK IN 2010. THEY WERE NOT VERY FRIENDLY AS A MATTER OF FACT THEY TRIED TO MAKE ME FEEL STUPID BY TELLING ME THAT WHO EVER IS WASHING AND CLEARING MY VEHICLE MAYBE USING A CHEAP PRODUCT ON THE VINYL. AND WHEN I ASKED ABOUT THE AREAS THAT WERE NOT MELTING. I WAS TOLD THAT, THOSE AREAS ARE PROBABLY NOT BEING CLEANED. I WAS THEN ASKED IF I'M PRESENT WHEN MY CAR IS BEING CLEANED AND WHAT PRODUCTS ARE BEING USED. I CONTACTED LEXUS AGAIN THIS YEAR AFTER LEARNING THAT SOMEONE WROTE A STORY ABOUT MELTING DASHBOARDS AND I WAS TOLD THAT THEY DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND IT SOUNDS LIKE WEAR AND TEAR. WITH THE DASHBOARD MELTING LIKE IT IS,LEAVES A BLINDING GLARE WHICH IN MY...

THE DASHBOARD ON MY VEHICLE IS MELTING. THIS IS CAUSING AN UNSAFE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD DUE TO THE MELTING, SHINY DASHBOARD REFLECTING ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. THE DASHBOARD IS VERY STICKY TO THE TOUCH, YOU CAN'T WIPE THE DASHBOARD DUE TO THE STICKINESS CAUSING A RAG OR CLOTH TO STICK TO THE DASH. THERE IS CURRENTLY NO HELP AVAILABLE FROM LEXUS IN REGARDS TO THIS PROBLEM. THIS S A VEHICLE DEFECT, I HAVE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE DO THIS. THE ONLY FIX IS TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD. *TR

MY DASHBOARD HAS BEEN MELTING AND HAS CAUSED ME TO BE BURNED AND CAUSES A GLAZE IN MY WINDOW WHEN I DRIVE IT. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS VERY STICKY TO THE TOUCH. WHEN TRYING TO REMOVE THE STICKINESS WITH A PAPER TOWEL AND CLEANER, THE PAPER TOWEL BECAME STUCK TO THE DASHBOARD. AT THIS TIME UNABLE TO CLEAN THE DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD IS CREATING A GLARE ON THE FRONT WINDOW MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE AT TIMES. THE BLACK RUBBER EXTERIOR TRUNK RELEASE BUTTON MELTED. I WENT TO OPEN THE TRUNK AND HAD DIFFICULTY GETTING THE TRUNK TO OPEN. WHEN I BENT DOWN TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE BUTTON, IT WAS TOTALLY MELTED AND SMEARED ACROSS THE BOTTOM. I HAD BLACK RESIDUE ON MY FINGERS WHEN I TOUCHED WHAT WAS LEFT OF THE BUTTON. I REPORTED BOTH INCIDENTS TO MY SERVICE MANAGER IN JUNE 2014 WHEN I TOOK MY LEXUS IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE TRUNK BUTTON WOULD BE OVER $300 AND THE DASHBOARD WAS NOT COVERED....

THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND SHINY VERY STICKY. THE GLARE FROM THE DASHBOARD IS INTERFERING WITH THE DRIVER'S VISION. *TR

THE DASHBOARD OF MY 2007 ES 350 IS MELTING AWAY. IT HAS A REALLY SHINY & STICKY AREA ON THE DRIVER SIDE WHICH, CAUSES A LOT OF GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD & MAKING IT A SAFETY CONCERN. ALSO, THE DASHBOARD HAS AREAS THAT STARTED CRACKING DUE, TO THE SAME ISSUE. ALSO, THE DOOR PANELS ARE MELTING AS WELL. I TRY TO PROTECT THE DASHBOARD WITH THE SUNSHADES, BUT IT IS GETTING WORSE (EACH DAY). PLEASE HELP. *JS
