DASHBOARD MELT. *TR

I JUST BOUGHT THIS TOYOTA CAMRY AND DIDN'T REALIZE UNTIL AFTER THAT THE DASHBOARD IS VERY STICKY AND GETS REALLY SHINEY AS THE TEMPERATURE RISES. THIS CAUSES A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. AFTER RESEARCHING I FOUND OUT THAT TOYOTA ISSUED A EXTENDED WARRANTY. HOWEVER THEY SAID THAT IT EXPIRED ON 5/31/17 AND THEY CANT DO ANYTHING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I BELIEVE THAT IT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND THEY SHOULD REPLACE THE DASHBOARD. THE CAR ONLY HAS 68370 MILES AND HAS A LONG LIFE. I DO FEEL THAT MY LIFE IS IN DANGER WITH THIS KNOWN PROBLEM THAT THEY DON'T WANT TO FIX. PLEASE HELP!!!!! THIS ISSUE IS ALL OF THE TIME. *TR

CAR DASHBOARD WHEN EXPOSED TO SUN , GETS STICKY AND GLOSSY. THE REFLECTION ON THE WINDSHIELD CREATES HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITION. THE DASHBOARD MATERIAL APPEARS TO BE VINYL. THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED, TOYOTA MOTOR CO. DID SEND A LETTER INFORMING THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS SITUATION, BUT HAS NO RESOLUTION OR TIME FRAME IN SOLVING THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS UNFAIR TO CONSUMERS. *TR

A "STICKY" AND CRACKING DASHBOARD FROM FLORIDA HEAT CAUSES A HUGE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. THIS MAKES VISIBILITY EXTREMELY LIMITED WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE NOT USED ANY CLEANING OR POLISHING PRODUCTS ON THE DASHBOARD. I AM CONVINCED IT IS JUST FROM HIGH TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY OVER TIME. AFTER NOTICING THE PROBLEM I TRIED TO REDUCE DIRECT SUNLIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD BY USING WINDSHIELD COVERS; HOWEVER, THE DASH STILL REMAINED "STICKY" AND THE COVERS JUST SIMPLY STUCK TO THE DASH. THE ISSUE USED TO ONLY OCCUR WHEN IT WAS HOT OUTSIDE, BUT NOW THE DASH HAS BEEN "MELTED" SO MUCH SO THAT IT HAS BECOME GLOSSY. WHICH MEANS EVEN IN COOLER TEMPERATURES THE DASH REFLECTS ANY SUNLIGHT AND CAUSES A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. AGAIN, THIS ISSUE HIGHLY DECREASES VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. IT IS OFTEN DIFFICULT TO PERFORM THE EASIEST MANEUVERS SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU CANNOT SEE. I HAVE EVEN BOUGHT EXPENSIVE...

AFTER OWNING MY 2007 CAMRY FOR OVER 3 YEARS THE DASHBOARD BEGUN TO MELT. WHEN TOUCHING THE DASHBOARD YOU CAN IMMEDIATELY FEEL THE STICKINESS AND IMPRINTS ARE LEFT AFTER A SIMPLE TOUCH. *TR

MY DASHBOARD STARTED MELTING LEAVES A RESIDUE ANYTIME I TRY TO CLEAN IT. THIS CREATES A GLARE WHEN I DRIVE. *TR

MELTING DASHBOARD. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS LITERALLY MELTING AWAY.THERE IS A HORRIBLE STICKY, GOOEY SUBSTANCE THAT IS OOZING OUT OF THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD.YOU CANNOT TOUCH OR CLEAN IT, AND WHEN DRIVING IN THE DIRECT SUN, IT CREATES SUCH A REFLECTION ON THE WINDOW THAT YOU CAN HARDLY SEE. I HAVE APPROACHED TOYOTA ON THIS ISSUE SEVERAL TIMES, ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS AND THAT THE REASON THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING IS BECAUSE I LIVE IN TEXAS AUSTIN. *TR

THE DASHBOARD OF OUR 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS MELTING. THERE HAVE BEEN NO CHEMICALS USED ON THE DASHBOARD WHAT SO EVER. IT HAS ALWAYS ONLY BEEN CLEANED WITH WATER. THE MELTING IS PRONOUNCED MORE AS THE DASHBOARD NEARS THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD. IT IS NOW VERY STICKY AND IS COMPLETELY RUINED. MOST IMPORTANTLY, SINCE MELTING, IT HAS BECOME VERY SHINY. IT CREATES A HORRIBLE GLARE OF BRIGHT SUNLIGHT DIRECTLY INTO YOUR EYES AS YOU DRIVE. IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT. IT IS ALMOST LIKE A MIRROR DIRECTLY ON TOP OF YOUR DASH. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THEY WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. THEY STATE THE DASH WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS REPORTS FROM OTHER CAMRY OWNER'S WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. PLEASE HELP. *JS

DROPPING MY KID OFF AT SCHOOL ONE MORNING AND IT WAS VERY SUNNY. WE WERE LATE THAT MORNING SO A SCHOOL ATTENDANT CLOSED ONE SIDE OF THE GATE. THE SUN WAS VERY BRIGHT AND BECAUSE MY DASH IS MELTING, THE SUN BUT A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. I WAS ABLE TO SEE THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE GATE WAS OPEN BUT I WASN'T ABLE TO SEE THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE GATE WAS CLOSED (LARGE GLARE ON WINDSHIELD). I WAS ABLE TO MAKE OUT THAT THERE WERE NO CHILDREN AROUND TO PROCESS TO GO THROUGH THE GATE BUT COULDN'T CONFIRM THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE OF GATE WAS CLOSED. DRIVER SIDE OF GATE WAS OPEN SO I NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THE OTHER SIDE WOULD BE CLOSED. PUT A BIG DINT IN MY CAR BY PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WINDOW. I EVEN HAD SUNSHADES ON. TOOK ALL PERCUSSIONS OTHER THAN GETTING OUT...

DASHBOARD IS MELTING CAUSING GLARE INTO FRONT WINDSHIELD. *TR

I REPORTED THE STICKY DASH PROBLEM TO DEALERSHIP AT ABOUT 60,000 MILES IN 09 ALONG WITH THE STEERING WHEEL MATERIAL FALLING APART. THIS PROBLEM HAS ONLY GOTTEN WORSE TO THE POINT WHERE MY DASH IS CREATING A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR ORIGINAL OWNERS AS THIS CAN BE A SAFETY HAZARD. FULL RECALL SHOULD BE MANDATORY . BUT IF OWNER HAS TO PAY IT SHOULD BE VERY LITTLE . MAYBE LIKE 500 INSTEAD OF THE 1800$ QUOTE I GOT FROM THE DEALERSHIP . I'VE OWNED OTHER CARS IN FLORIDA AND NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM . I'M KINDA DISAPPOINTED THAT TOYOTA WILL NOT TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THIS WILL AFFECT MY BUYING DECISION IN THE FUTURE UNLESS THEY FIX IT SINCE THIS WILL AFFECT MY TRADE IN VALUE. *TR

DURING JULY, 2013, I NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD ON MY CAMRY WAS STICKY AND LOOKED GRIMY. I ASKED MY HUSBAND IF HE COULD CLEAN IT FOR ME. WHEN WE HAD THE CAR SERVICED IN AUGUST, 2013, WE WERE GIVEN THE TELEPHONE NUMBER FOR TOYOTA TO REPORT MY PROBLEM. IT WAS NOT UNTIL A ROAD TRIP THIS PAST SUMMER, THAT WE NOTICED HOW EXTREMELY DIFFICULT IT WAS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT THE DISTRACTION FROM ONCOMING HEADLIGHTS HITTING OUR GLOSSY DASHBOARD. WAS DISTRACTING AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THE GLARE OF THE DASHBOARD ON THE FRONT WINDOW FROM THE SUN DURING THE DAY WAS AS TERRIBLE. WE COULD NOT SEE EXIT SIGNS OR TRAFFIC WARNING LIGHTS BECAUSE OF THE CONSTANT GLARE AND BLINDING REFLECTION. AFTER I SAW A NEWS INVESTIGATION ON NBC6 MIAMI CONCERNING MY SAME PROBLEM, I REALIZED THAT THIS SITUATION IS A GROWING CONCERN FOR TOYOTA OWNERS AND SHOULD BE BY TOYOTA....
