2007 TOYOTA CAMRY Structure Problems

DASHBOARD ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS GOTTEN VERY STICKY. CAUSES GLARE ON WINDSHIELD AND MAKES DRIVING VERY HAZARDOUS. *TR

MY DASH IS MELTING AND DISINTEGRATING. IT IS REALLY STICKY CAUSING A DANGEROUS GLARE WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND APPARENTLY I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP BUT THEY WANTED ME TO PURCHASE A NEW DASH. THIS CAN BE A DANGEROUS SITUATION WHILE DRIVING WITH SUN SHINING CAUSING A GLARE AND MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD MELTED DUE TO EXCESSIVE EXPOSURE TO THE SUN. THE DEFECT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR WAS THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 91,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

MELTING DASHBOARD NOT SAFE. *TR

THE DASHBOARD OF MY CAR IS STICKY AND VERY SHINY! I HAVE FOUND NOTHING THAT WILL REMOVE THE STICKY STUFF OR THE SHINE. THE SHINE CAUSES A BLIND SPOT FOR THE DRIVER THAT IS VERY DANGEROUS. IT IS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND IN THE DRIVER'S LINE OF SIGHT. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM OF ENGINEERING BY THE COMPANY THAT MAKES THE DASH. THEY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING THIS DASHBOARD. IT IS ALL OVER THE TOP OF THE DASH. *TR

TOYOTA CAMRY DASHBOARD IS VERY STICKY AND MELTING. IF YOU PRESS YOUR HAND OR FINGERS AGAINST THE DASH BOARD THE RUBBER/PAINT WILL STICK TO YOUR HAND. EVEN IF YOU TRY CLEANING IT, IT WILL STICK TO THE PIECE OF CLOTH OR PAPER AND REMOVING THE PAINT AND RUBBER FROM THE DASHBOARD. *TR

DASH BOARD IS VERY STICKY, BECOMING SHINY, COMPOSITION IS CHANGING TO VERY SOFT, EASILY DEPRESSED AND INDENTED, AND PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE. SHINY DASHBOARD CAUSES GLARE TO REFLECT ON WINDSHIELD AFFECTING VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING ON SUNNY DAYS. *TR

THE DASHBOARD HAS BECOME 'STICKY' WHICH IS CAUSING A 'BLINDING GLARE' TO COME OFF OF WINDSHIELD. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS SO STICKY THAT I CANT DRIVE MY CAR IN THE DAY TIME WITH OUT FEELING SAFE. MY DASH BOARD HAS TURN INTO A GLUE TRAP FOR ANYTHING THAT COMES IN CONTACT WITH IT. I HAVE CALLED TOYOTA AND MADE A CLAIM AND THEY TOLD ME NOT ONE PERSON HAS MADE A COMPLAINT. I FIND THAT VERY HARD TO BELIEVE WITH ALL THE POST AND VIDEOS ON INTERNET OF THIS PROBLEM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. WILL PLEASE SOMEONE HELP, MY CAR IS NOT SAFE AS YOU CANT SEE IN DAY TIME OUT OF WINDOW. *TR

I HAVE BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN SEVERAL TIMES COMPLAINING ABOUT MY SHINY, STICKY, AND DANGEROUS DASHBOARD. IT IS A RECALL BUT MY TOYOTA DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME IT WOULD BE OVER $2500 TO REPLACE. AFTER CALL THE HEAD CORPORATION IT WAS DROPPED DOWN BUT I STILL CAN'T AFFORD IT. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND DISTRACTING I TRY TO COVER THE SHININESS BUT WHATEVER TOUCHES THE DASH GETS STUCK TO IT AND I AM LOOSING PIECE AFTER PIECE. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE WHEN IT IS SUNNY OR RAINING AS THE REFLECTION SHINES RIGHT IN MY VIEW WHILE DRIVING. I LIVE IN FLORIDA AND IT IS ALWAYS ONE OR THE OTHER HERE. THANK YOU FOR ADDRESSING THIS. *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY CAR IS MELTING, THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN GARAGE KEPT SINCE 2011. THE DASHBOARD IS EXTREMELY SHINY AND STICKY AND CAUSES A SERIOUS GLARE PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING IN DAYLIGHT. I AM AFRAID TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS, DUE TO THE SERIOUS POSSIBILITY OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THE NEAR ZERO VISIBILITY CAUSED BY THE GLARE OFF THE DASHBOARD. *TR

DASHBOARD MATERIAL MELTS IN WARM AND SUNNY CONDITIONS. DASH BECOMES EXCESSIVELY STICKY AND HAS DEVELOPED A SHINY SURFACE THAT CAUSES CONTINUOUS GLARE (UNDER SUNNY CONDITIONS) CAUSING VISIBILITY PROBLEMS FOR THE DRIVER. ONGOING SAFETY ISSUE AND WELL DOCUMENTED FOR THIS CAMRY MODEL/YEAR. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS A STICKY MESS. IT MELTS IN THE SUN AND CREATES A HORRIBLE GLARE WHILE DRIVING. I CANNOT MITIGATE THE GLARE AND IT SOMETIMES MAKES DRIVING QUITE DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE DASHBOARD WAS MELTING AND THE SURFACE BECAME VERY STICKY AND SHINY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000. UPDATED 11/20/14*CN THE CONSUMER STATED THE SURFACE BELOW THE WINDSHIELD BECAME SHINY AND REFLECTED THE SUNLIGHT IMPAIRING VISIBILITY. UPDATED 5/5/2015 *JS

GLARE FROM DASHBOARD DISTRACTED ME. ALSO SEEMS THAT DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND BREAKING APART IN SMALL AREAS. MAIN CONCERN IS THE GLARE, IT SEEMS THAT GLARE IS GETTING WORSE ALONG WITH THE MELTING. REALLY WORRIED THAT GLARE MIGHT DISTRACT TO THE POINT OF AN ACCIDENT. TRIED CLEANING BUT NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK, CLOTH OR PAPER PRODUCTS START TO STICK TO DASHBOARD. *TR

9-30-2014: MY DASHBOARD AS BEEN MELTING FOR MORE THAN A YEAR. AT FIRST I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS SOFT ON ESPECIALLY HOT DAYS, BUT THE CONDITION CONTINUED TO DETERIORATE. NOW PIECES ARE STARTING TO COME OFF AND VISIBILITY IS GETTING WORSE DAILY AS THE DASH BECOMES SHINIER. I PARK MY CAR IN A CARPORT OUT OF THE SUN. I DRIVE THE CAR SHORT DISTANCES ONCE A WEEK OR LESS. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER IN GAINESVILLE FLORIDA SEVERAL TIMES ASKING WHAT TO DO. THEY FINALLY TOLD ME TO CALL TOYOTA CORPORATE, WHICH I DID IN AUGUST. THEY SAID THEY WERE UNAWARE OF OTHER OWNERS WITH PROBLEMS AND SINCE I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND WAS NOT A PREFERRED CUSTOMER (SINCE I HAVEN'T PURCHASED MORE THAN ONE TOYOTA) THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. TODAY I WENT TO THE LOCAL DEALER IN PERSON. [XXX], THE SERVICE REP, SAID IT WOULD...

I BEGAN NOTICING THAT THE DASHBOARD OF MY CAMRY WAS BECOMING SHINY/WET LOOKING APPROX A YEAR AGO. IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE AND NOW IT IS SO BAD THAT THERE IS A GLARE ON MY WINDSHIELD DURING DAYLIGHT DRIVING. THIS VEHICLE STAYS IN AN ENCLOSED GARAGE AND NO HARSH/CAUSTIC CLEANING AGENTS HAVE EVER BEEN APPLIED TO THE DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD IS SOFT AND STICKY. IT IS LITERALLY MELTING! ADDITIONALLY, THERE IS A FOUL ODOR AS A RESULT OF THE MELTING DASHBOARD. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND MELTING. I HAVE TAKEN METICULOUS CARE OF THIS CAR, USED SUN SHADE & GARAGED FOR THE FIRST 4 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS GETTING VERY SOFT AND WHEN SOMETHING TOUCHES IT, IT GOUGES OUT PIECES OF IT. IT LOOKS HORRIBLE IN MY $30,000 CAR !!!! *TR

OVER THE COURSE OF THE PAST YEAR, THE DASHBOARD OF MY CAMRY HAS DEVOLVED INTO A STICKY, SHINY MESS. THE SURFACE OF MOST OF THE DASHBOARD HAS A GLUEY TEXTURE, WITH THE PARTS NEAREST THE WINDSHIELD HAVING COMPLETELY LIQUEFIED. THE STICKY AREAS ARE VERY SHINY, CAUSING GLARE THAT COVERS MUCH OF THE WINDSHIELD WHEN DRIVING TOWARDS THE SUN OR UNDER STREETLIGHTS. THIS GLARE IS VERY DISTRACTING AND SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCES VISIBILITY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS MELTING AND CAUSED A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,500.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SE HAS A MELTED DASHBOARD THAT SEVERELY DIMINISHES VISIBILITY WHEN THE SUN IS OUT. A REFLECTION FROM THE DASHBOARD IS DISPLAYED ON THE WINDSHIELD AND IS LIKE LOOKING DIRECTLY INTO THE SUN. SOONER OR LATER THIS IS GOING TO BE THE CAUSE OF AN ACCIDENT THAT MAY OR MAY NOT RESULT, BUT NOT LIMITED TO DEATH. IT IS A DEFECT ON THE PART OF TOYOTA AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN AND THEIR LIVES SHOULD NOT BE PUT IN DANGER FOR AN OBVIOUS DEFECT THAT MUST BE CORRECTED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD COVER WAS MELTING AND FRACTURED WHEN TOUCHED. THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT AREA MELTED AND EXPOSED THE BOARD. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE AIR BAGS MAY DEPLOY AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WIRES MAY FAIL, IF EXPOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

DASHBOARD IS MELTING CAUSING DANGEROUS GLARE. *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY VEHICLE IS MELTING. IT'S STICKY, LOOKS WET, AND ON SOME DAYS IT ACTUALLY FEELS LIKE CLAY. WHEN THE SUN IS OUT IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE DUE TO THE INTENSE GLARE. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY DAYS I TRY TO LOOK AT THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD WHEN THERE'S BEEN ONCOMING TRAFFIC LIKE YOU DO WHEN SOMEONE IS COMING AT YOU WITH THEIR HI-BEAMS ON. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS VEHICLE SAFETY COMPLAINTS MADE CONCERNING THIS ISSUE BUT NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED. WITH THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE REPORTING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE ITS TIME FOR SOMEONE TO STEP UP AND MAKE OTHERS WITH THE ABILITY TO HELP DO THE RIGHT THING. THIS IS NONSENSE. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IN THIS CAR IS MELTING AND CREATING A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. IT MAKES IT HARD TO SEE. *TR

THE DASH BOARD ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS BECOME EXTREMELY SOFT AND GLARES BACK INTO THE WINDOW CAUSING IT HARD TO SEE. THIS CLEARLY SHOULD BE A DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE ANYONE GETS HURT. IT IS CLEAR TO SEE THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED CASE AS PER ALL THE POSTINGS ON THE INTERNET. I HOPE THAT THE AGENCY IN CHARGE OF SAFETY LOOKS AT THIS AS A REAL PROBLEM AND NOT WAIT UNTIL SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS BEFORE REACTING. *TR

ON 9/19/14, I SPOKE WITH "[XXX]", CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE CENTER, TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS REGARDING MY MELTING DASHBOARD. I EXPLAINED THAT IT'S A SECURITY ISSUE THAT TOYOTA HAS BEEN MADE AWARE OF, AND WHICH I BECAME AWARE OF BY LOCAL MEDIA. I INFORMED HER THAT THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT GLARE FROM MY DASHBOARD, AND ANYTHING THAT COMES IN CONTACT WITH IT STICKS, SO I CAN'T EVEN USE A VISOR. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN DELRAY BEACH, FL HAS OFFERED TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD FOR AN OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSE TO ME OF $600 (TOTAL REPORTEDLY NORMALLY $2000), HOWEVER, I ADVISED TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS THAT THERE SHOULD BE NO COST TO ME DUE TO THE KNOWN SECURITY ISSUES, REPORTED ACCIDENTS, THEIR COMPANY'S INTEGRITY AND MY LOYALTY AS A LONGTIME TOYOTA CUSTOMER. [XXX] REMINDED ME THAT MY CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, AND THAT "OUT OF RESPECT FOR YOU, THE DEALERSHIP IS OFFERING YOU ASSISTANCE. WE DON'T HAVE A RECALL...

DASH IS STICKY. THE GLARE IS VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO THE RESIDUE ON THE DASH . NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED. *TR

THE TOP OF THE DASHBOARD IS TACKY OR STICKY AND EXTREMELY SHINY. SUNLIGHT REFLECTS OFF THE SURFACE OF THE DASHBOARD, CREATING A GLARE THAT OBSTRUCTS VISION. THE STICKY NATURE OF THE DASHBOARD SURFACE MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO CLEAN. THE MATERIAL IS EXTREMELY SOFT AND EASY TO DAMAGE. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS SOFT TO TOUCH AND STICKY ESPECIALLY IN THE HEAT. IF YOU TOUCH IT WITH YOUR NAIL IT WILL MAKE A INDENTION. IT IS VERY HOT TO TOUCH. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND DAMAGED. *TR

3 OR 4 YEARS AGO MY DASH BOARD STARTED MELTING. IT IS STICKY AND HAS A SHINE TO IT THAT CAUSES A GLARE WHEN DRIVING INTO THE SUN. I HAVE ASKED TOYOTA ABOUT IT AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY WILL DO. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT HAS THE MELTING DASHBOARD. I COMPLAINED ABOUT IT MANY TIMES STARTING IN SEPTEMBER OF 2012. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS MY FAULT. SOMETHING I USED ON DASHBOARD. (CLEANING PRODUCT). I KNEW I HAD NOT AND INSISTED MID LAST YEAR THAT THEY TAKE PICTURES AND SUBMIT TO HAVE IT FIXED. I DID NOT GET A RESPONSE. LAST MONTH AUGUST, 2014 8 ON YOUR SIDE AIRED THE STORY ON MELTING DASHBOARDS. I CALLED TOYOTA AGAIN AND THEY SAID THEY WERE SORRY NO ONE GOT BACK TO ME. THEY SAID THEY HAD THE COMPLAINT ON FILE, BUT COULD NOT EXPLAIN WHY I GOT NO RESPONSE. A FEW DAYS LATER THEY SAID THEY WOULD FIX IT FOR JUST UNDER $800.00. I FEEL THIS IS A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM AND THINK IT SHOULD BE A RECALL. THE GLARE IT CAUSES OFF THE WINDSHIELD MAKES IF DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. ALSO...

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING,AND ITS ONLY GETTING WORSE,CANT CLEAN IT OFF,BUT ASIDE FROM THAT I FEAR THAT IN AN EMERGENCY MY PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT PROPERLY DEPLOY...THIS IS A HORRIBLE YET SCARY ISSUE TO HAVE...SUCH A BEAUTIFUL CAR WITH A MELTING DASHBOARD,I AM A BIG HONDA AND TOYOTA FAN AS FOR THE REST OFF MY FAMILY..AND I CAN TELL YOU THIS CANNOT BE TOYOTA QUALITY OF SERVICE,AND I HIGHLY DOUBT THAT THE CHEAP MELTING GUM LIKE MATERIALS USED FOR THESE DASHBOARDS ARE NOT UP TO TOYOTA STANDARDS.. *TR

TOYOTA SHOULD PROVIDE A RECALL REGARDING THE REPLACEMENT OF A DEFECTIVE AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS VEHICLE DASHBOARD. MY CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION BUT FOR SOME REASON THE VEHICLE HAS A STICKY, MELTING AND DIRTY DASHBOARD WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAN BECAUSE IF YOU TOUCH IT VANISHES, WHILE CLEANING IT. FURTHERMORE, WHEN YOU DRIVE ON DAYLIGHT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE WITH THE GLARE COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD, WHICH DEFINITELY MAY CAUSE A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT, INCREASING THE POSSIBILITY FOR INJURY AND EVEN DEATH ALONG TIME. *TR

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ASSISTANCE IN REPLACEMENT OF DEFECTIVE AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS VEHICLE DASHBOARD . *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED NOT ONLY WAS THE DASHBOARD MELTING, STICKY, AND UGLY, THE GLARE COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD AND THEREFORE GREATLY INCREASED THE POTENTIAL FOR INJURY. *JB

ENTIRE DASHBOARD IS STICKY/MELTING. YOU CAN'T CLEAN IT AND THERE IS A GLARE. IF YOU BUMP THE DASH, A SMALL PIECE WILL COME OFF. *TR

DASHBOARD MELTING, STICKY, DISINTEGRATING TO THE TOUCH AND BASICALLY FALLING APART!!! *TR

I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THE MELTING DASHBOARD AND HOPE I DON'T. IT IS AN ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE DEALT WITH. IT SEEMS THAT TOYOTA WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT UNLESS THEY ARE MADE TO SO. MY DASHBOARD HAS GOTTEN SOFT AND CONTINUES TO GET SOFT EVEN THOUGH I KEEP IT GARAGED. THERE ARE GLARES AND GOUGES NOW. THOSE ARE DISTRACTING AND CAN EASILY RESULT IN ME OR SOMEONE ELSE HAVING A CRASH BECAUSE OF IT. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING THIS ISSUE.I HAVE SPOKEN TO CORPORATE AND THE LOCAL DEALER AND HAVE COME AWAY FRUSTRATED. ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS ASSIST IN THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DASH, AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY$1100 MYSELF. IT NOT RIGHT FOR THE CONSUMER TO PAY SUCH A PRICE WHEN THE CAR MAKER HAS CLEARLY MADE A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS STICKY AND BEGAN TO MELT. THE FAILURE CAUSED A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD AND IMPAIRED THE CONTACT'S VISION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY, AT FIRST (APPROX. 2011) THE DASHBOARD WOULD FEEL STICKY, AS IF SOMETHING HAD SPILLED ON IT. HOWEVER THE STICKINESS COULD NOT BE CLEANED UP. IT WAS IN FACT THE MATERIAL OF THE DASHBOARD MELTING. IT CONTINUES TO GET WORSE AND SPREADS ACROSS A LARGER AREA, TO THE POINT THAT NOW (2014) THE DASH CANNOT BE TOUCHED WITHOUT A MARK BEING LEFT IN THE MELTED MATERIAL. IT LOOKS WET AND IS SO GLOSSY THAT THE GLARE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THROUGH MOST OF THE DAY. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AS IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD, NOT JUST WITH THE BLINDING GLARE WHICH IMPAIRS VISION, BUT BECAUSE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS CONTAINED INSIDE OF THE DASHBOARD AND THE DASHBOARD BEING MELTED MAY AFFECT ITS DEPLOYMENT. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING EAST ON A 4 LANE HIGHWAY THE SUN WAS HITTING MY DASHBOARD AND BECAUSE OF THE MELTING CONDITION OF THE DASHBOARD THERE WAS A GLARE IN FRONT OF ME THAT IMPAIRED MY VISION. IT FORCED ME TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN TO GET WAY FROM THE GLARE. THIS DASH BOARD BECOMES SO STICKY IN THE HEAT THAT I CANT DISPLAY PARKING PASSES IN THE WINDOW BECAUSE I WON'T BE ABLE TO REMOVE THEM. BECAUSE OF THIS I RUN THE RISK OF BEING TICKETED. A DASHBOARD SHOULD NOT BE IN THIS CONDITION. IT IS MADE OF FAULTY MATERIAL. *TR

I'VE NOTICED MY 2007 CAMRY DASHBOARD IS MELTING UNDER THE HOT FLORIDA SUN. IN THE MORNINGS IS NOT AS STICKY BUT WHEN HEAT STARTS GOING UP THE DASHBOARD GET STICKIER AND SHINY MAKING A GLARE ON WINDSHIELD MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. THIS IS A PROBLEM I CANNOT HAVE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP! *TR

THE UPPER PART OF THE DASHBOARD (TOWARD THE WINDSHIELD) HAS BECOME SOFT AND STICKY. IT IS ESSENTIALLY MELTING. I HAVE TRIED TO CLEAN IT BUT THAT ONLY MAKES IT WORSE. IT IS NOW JUST A STICKY GOO. *TR

MY DASHBOARD HAS BEEN MELTING FOR THE LAST 5 YEARS. *TR

DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND IS VERY STICKY. GLARE FROM THE SHINY CAUSES DISTRACTION ON THE ROAD. HARD TO SEE THE ROAD BECAUSE OF THE SHINE. DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND IS VERY STICKY. *TR

MELTING DASHBOARD. *TR

A FEW INCHES OF THE FRONT DASHBOARD AREA NEAREST THE FRONT WINDOW MELTED AND WOULD GET ON THE SUNSCREEN AND FROM THERE ON TO THE FRONT WINDOW. I SPOKE TO THE SERVICE PERSON AT MY DEALERSHIP AND ON THE ADVICE OF HIS MANAGER I SENT AN EMAIL TO TOYOTA. THEY ONLY OFFERED TO PAY FOR HALF OF THE REPLACEMENT COST. I HAD THE DASHBOARD REPLACED AND HAD TO PAY $688.70. *TR
