    Began noticing the dashboard was beginning to feel very sticky & could not be wiped off. It progressively got worse, bugs sticking to it & not able to wipe off. Couldn't use sun shades as the bottom would rip from being stuck. The worst, however, is the glare that causes almost blindness when driving. You just can't hardly see & i believe that is a danger & something should have been done years ago about this…

    I have a toyota camry 2008. I reported that the dashboard was sticky when i went for my 32,000 mile check up. The dealer rep. Said," oh don't worry about it, i'm sure there will be a recall because we are seeing it on lots of cars. My daughter in law had the same problem on her 2007 model. Both of ours were gray in color. Several years later and no recall and a disgusting dash board. It is so melted that in florida…

    About a year after we bought our camry, we noticed that the dash panel was starting to get sticky. We tried wiping it down but it did not work and has continually gotten worse. It also creates a tremendous glare that makes it very hard to see out of the windshield. It is definitely a safety hazard for drivers as well as a ugly and nasty eyesore. *tr

    My dash has been sticky two years after i purchased my car. I bought my car brand new in 2008. I took it to the dealership and showed them that this is s defect from the manufacturer, but they refused to replace it. My other car is a toyota corolla and the dash is not like this. I feel that toyota needs to do a recall for this. I shouldn't have to come out of my pocket for something that was a defect for these…

    A few days after i took possession of my 2008 toyota camry, the splash guard came off. I was told that (1) i had gone over something and pulled it off, or (2) the factory may not have tightened the bolts enough. The dealer tightened the bolts. A few months later, the same thing occurred. This time, i noticed that the wheels were hitting the splash guard when i turned sharply. I brought the car in and reported the…

    Tl*the contact owns a 2008 toyota camry. While driving at any speed, there is a glare in the rear window that hinders the contact's visibility. She called the manufacturer and was informed that it was not a vehicle safety defect, but rather a design flaw. The contact purchased some black fabric and laid it across the inside of the window, which remedied the failure. The failure mileage was 800 and current mileage…
