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

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

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,…

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,…

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

I called toyota and the rep i spoke to flat out lied about there being an issue. She told me that due to the warranty expiration i would have to pay the full cost of replacing the dashboard.

My dash board is melting. It seems this is a current issue faced by many owners and toyota has yet to address it. It seems as if extreme heat will make the dashboard malleable and especially susceptible to nicks and scratches. It is impossible to clean. Any rag, wipe, etc. Leaves sticky fibers in the already tacky surface. *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…
