Also on the passenger side of the dashboard the outline of the airbag compartment can be seen. I believe…

In 2012, i started noticing some issues with the dashboard. It was very shiny and sticky to the touch. The texture is gummy and will come off in your fingernail if scratched or nicked.

It appears to be worse on the upper portion of the dash where the sun/heat would shine. When i contacted my local dealership about this issue at my last service they said they were unaware of the problem and that i must have used a chemical to…

The area on the front part of the dashboard (next to the windshield) has become sticky and shiny. It is tacky to the touch and easily gouges. It creates a glare for the driver that can impair his ability to drive. We have tried washing the area and it does not improve the condition! It is dangerous and unsightly! *tr

I have a gen6 toyota camry with a dash that has been getting sticky and seems to be melting. This has been slowly getting worse over the past 2 years. This has never been cleaned with chemicals other than soap and water. The dash closest to the window has become 'glossy' to the point of causing visibility issues and reflection of exterior lighting. I have searched the web extensively and there seems to be no 'one'…

I returned from the northeast. My car was in my garage. My entire dashboard seemed to be melting. You could put your hand on it and your hand would stick to it. It was very dangerous because it was very shiny and the dash would be reflected in the front windshield. You were unable to see clearly through the window. It's happened every october when i return to florida, toyota wouldn't acknowledge that it was their…

On september 2011, the texture of my dashboard started changing to a shiny tacky texture, and the closer to the window the more severe it was. I must add that i take great care of my vehicle and whenever it's parked outside i use interior windshield covers to protect it from the sun and heat. In an attempt to clean it, i noticed the dashboard was disintegrating. It was coming right off and it was impossible to…

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 dash has become very sticky and shiny like it is melting. When you drive towards the sun, the glare off the shiny dash is so bad you cannot see out of the windshield. Toyota will not recognize that there is a problem and will only give a small loyalty amount towards the repair since the vehicle is out of warranty. I have been talking to toyota for since 2011 and they are not willing to help. This is a tremendous…
