MELTING DASH - I HAVE THE LEXUS "MELTING DASH" PROBLEM ON MY IS250 AND HAVE WAITED FOR 1 1/2 YEARS, WITH NO RESOLUTION. MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY DASHES FOR OVER 6 MONTHS AND HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THEY MIGHT ARRIVE. MY DASH HAS MELTED INTO A SLICK BLOB AND THAT BECOME A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD. WHEN DRIVING DURING THE DAY, THE SUN REFLECTS ON THIS MELTED SURFACE AND BLINDS THE DRIVER. I HAVE NOTIFIED CERRITOS LEXUS AND LEXUS CORPORATE OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE. FORCING CUSTOMERS TO DRIVE UNSAFE VEHICLES WITH NO EXPECTATION OF WHEN A SOLUTION IS AVAILABLE IS UNACCEPTABLE. THIS SHOULD BE LISTED AS A RECALL DUE TO THE DRIVER/PASSENGER SAFETY CONCERNS. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO? I'M TELLING MY WIFE NOT TO DRIVE UNLESS IT'S AN EMERGENCY. *TR

TAKATA RECALL PLUS THE INTERIOR DASH AND INTERIOR SIDE DOOR PANELS ARE DETERIORATING. THE FRONT DASH HAS AN OILY SLICK RESIDUE WHICH GLARES INTO THE FRONT WINDSHIELD MAKING IT DANGEROUS TO OPERATE.

AT THIS RATE AND IF HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF NEITHER WILL BE REMEDIED IN MY LIFETIME.

APPROXIMATELY 2 YEARS AGO MY ENTIRE DASH BOARD AND SIDE PANELS STARTED TO MELT. I HAVE CONTACTED LEXUS AND THEY CONTINUE TO SAY THEY ARE WAITING ON THE MANUFACTURER FOR PARTS. I LIVE IN MARRERO LOUISIANA WITH EXTREMELY HIGH HUMIDITY AND TEMPERATURES. THIS HAS BEEN A SAFETY HAZARD. WHEN THE SUN HITS MY WINDSHIELD, THE GLARE FROM HITTING THE MELTED DASH COMPLETELY BLINDS ME. I HAVE TO LEAN TO THE RIGHT SIDE JUST TO SEE OUT OF MY WINDSHIELD. IT IS MELTED TO THE POINT OF IT BEING UNTOUCHABLE WITHOUT GETTING STICKY GLUE ON YOUR HANDS. ANYTHING THAT RUBS AGAINST THE SIDE DOOR PANELS CREATES GROOVES AND MARKS BECAUSE IT'S LIKE CLAY. NOW THERES A RECALL WITH THE TAKATA INFLATORS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG WHICH REALLY CONCERNS ME BECAUSE ITS AFFECTED BY HIGH TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY CAUSES DEGRADING OF THE PART. SINCE MY DASH BOARD IS COMPLETELY MELTED TO...

I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2007 LEXUS IS 250 FROM PARK PLACE LEXUS IN GRAPEVINE, TX. ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO, THE DASHBOARD PANEL STARTED TO GET VERY SOFT AND GUMMY DURING HOT DAYS. SMALL PIECES OF THE DASHBOARD PANEL CAME OFF EASILY. EVER SINCE, THE DASHBOARD PANEL HAS BEEN GETTING STICKY AND MELTING. THE MELTING DASHBOARD PANEL CAUSES A GLARE REFLECTION ON THE WINDSHIELD THAT PREVENTS THE DRIVER FROM BEING ABLE TO SEE ROAD CLEARLY WHILE DRIVING. IT'S A DANGEROUS SITUATION. LEXUS HAS REFUSED TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD PANEL EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE FULLY AWARE OF THE ISSUE. *TR

THE CAR MAKES A LOT OF CREAKING NOISES AND HAS BEEN TRIED TO BE FIXED SEVERAL TIMES AND NEVER GETS THE PROBLEM SOLVED. NOW CAR CREAKS AND RATTLES AT 10 MPH. SOUND COMING FROM THE A-PILLAR AND WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER. *TR
