Dashboard is becoming extremely sticky and shiny. Nothing wipes it off, and its worse in warmer weather. Its shininess is becoming distracting while driving. I'm worried about this spreading to other parts connected to the dashboard, like ac and airbags. Called toyota and they told me the warranty was up and it was the responsibility of the first owner of the vehicle to get it fixed. As the second owner (bought it…

I was told no problems, no recalls.…

Due to the toyota sticky dash problem caused by material degradation, i am experiencing a safety situation when sunlight produces a glare off the shiny dash surface. The glare is at its worst when driving into the sun. Upon calling toyota, they stated that their voluntary warranty extension period has ended and there is nothing they can do for me.

Dashboards can become cracked and/or sticky/melted over time. Toyota issued a warranty enhancement notification on this issue which expired january 2, 2018. My 2008 camry did not experience this problem until may 2018. This is a huge safety hazard as the sticky/melted dash acts as a mirror reflecting any light into the drivers face. It is especially hazardous in night driving when street lights and headlights glare…

The dashboard of the car is melting and has become very shiny causing a glare on the windshield that partially obscures the view of the road, particularly when there is bright sunshine. Toyota already acknowledges the safety issue and extended the warranty on the dashboard to 10 years. My car (purchased new) did not exhibit the melting issue until after we moved it from northern states, md and mi to fl starting in…

My dashboard became sticky last year. I have done what i can to properly clean it but it kept getting worse. Now, i can't even touch it without pieces of the dashboard coming apart. Items like lint and dust stick to it. In addition, the dashboard becomes incredibly shiny at night with a terrible glare that makes it difficult to drive. Toyota says they will not repair it because a voluntary recall expired in 2017. I…

Dashboard has melted and become sticky and highly reflective. When driving in sunlight it reflects onto the windshield and obscures vision. Was never notified by toyota that it could be replaced, but only by a certain date. This has become a hazard because of the reflection on the windshield. Nothing removes the stickiness and the reflection.

My sunroof exploded while i was driving. I heard a loud bang and it sounded like my tire blew or something else and then i heard air. I thought one of the windows was hit but it was actually my sunroof. There's huge hole and glass is shattered. I am thankful that it wasn't open and that my son was not in the car at the time.

Dashboard is very shiny and sticky - the glare from the dashboard in the sun or at night with lights is very unsafe in my opinion. I contacted toyota and they advised they sent letters about a warranty extension which i never received and said at this point i have no recourse. This poses as a safety issue and i was surprised this wasn't a recall vs a warranty extension. I am the original owner of this car and we…
