    My 2007 toyota camry's dashboard is melting, with an extremely shiny glare and is very sticky leaving it impossible to clean. It becomes a dangerous blinding hazard when the sun is baring down on the dash. *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

    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

    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…

    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

    I purchased this 2007 toyota camry from carmax in july 2013. Following the purchase, i noticed the dashboard was sticky and thought maybe some type of detailing cleaner had been used on it. The dashboard is sticky because it is melting in the heat. The shiny, melting dashboard causes a glare on the front windshield affecting visibility. *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…

    When i bought the car i didn't notice that the dash was so sticky. It is really bad like it is melting and if you touch it and your nail hits it. It takes a big chuck out of the dashboard so upset about this. I noticed alot of complaints so sad. It just looks terrible and dusty cause you can not touch it unless your hand sticks to it. *tr
