    The dashboard on my 2007 toyota camry is melting and causing a huge glare on the windshield. It looks like i slathered baby oil on the first 5 inches of the dashboard. This causes difficulty seeing out of the windshield especially in the florida sun. This should be a manufacture recall since it is a serious safety concern for drivers. *tr

    When sun comes out the dash board gets shiny and and oily. The reflection of the sun's rays from the oily surface of the dash board makes it difficult to see the road. The visibility is quite reduced and it is dangerous to drive with such poor view of the road in front. When taken to the toyota dealer in bradenton, fl. He says he has not seen any dash board like that.

    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

    Both my sun visors have broke to the point they are becoming a safety issue. They now dangle and will not stay up. Im reading this has become a huge issue for many toyota camry owners. I can understand if there was a lot of wear and tear on them however i know there is not and should not be breaking this quickly.

    Almost a collision. I have a dash that is sticky and the glare from the sun reflecting off the sticky dash is a very bad safety hazard. On 3 different occasions i could have had an accident. It even happens accident night when the street lights reflect off the dash. I have had the cat in motion and stable and have had near accidents. Please let me know if there is anything i can do about this. It is out of warranty.…

    The driver side sun visor was loose for several weeks. It would not flip up or stay up at any given time. It would always flop down. The piece had broken so much that the visor sagged if i put it to the left of me. I would have to duck my head down to see if any traffic was coming. I only used the visor if the sun was bright so not being able to adjust it to block the sun caused a lot of trouble because i'd have to…

The glare of the shiny material makes it very difficult to drive in daylight. This hazard could result in an accident and should be addressed with tms. *tr

    My 2007 toyota camry has developed a very soft and very sticky dashboard. At first i thought it was some sort of residue but the dashboard just kept getting worse. You can not touch it without leaving a mark on it, either a finger print or a nick from catching it with your fingernail. Any and all dust particles stick to its surface and because of the extreme stickiness it can not be cleaned off. The glare from the…
