    The dashboard in my 2007 toyota camry is melting and has taken on a very sticky and shiny appearance. Every little thing sticks to the dash and it can't be cleaned. Not only can't it be cleaned, it also creates a large dangerous glare on the windshield while driving in the day.

    At the first day of warm weather, the sun seemed to melt the dash and cause a glare on the front windshield. It gets so bad that it is impossible to see oncoming traffic. The dash top seems to turn to a sticky, glue substance. This is very dangerous.

    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.

    We just bought this car for my daughter yesterday evening from a toyota dealer in fl. I saw a shiny blemish on the dashboard up by the left front speaker and the salesman told us the dash was probably damaged by cleaning agents. I realized today after the car was in the sun that the whole dash was soft and sticky like it was melting and was causing a very blinding glare when facing certain directions with the sun.…

A reflection from the dashboard is displayed on the windshield and is like looking directly into the sun.

It is a defect on the part of toyota and should be addressed immediately before someone gets…

    I had to select visibility/wiper because it was the nearest answer to my concern. The driver side sun visor just flops down and won't stay up when not needed.it makes it difficult to see the road when it settles to odd obstructive positions by itself.

    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,…
