    First to fail was the speedo after the abs and brake light came on. No actual brake problem but the lack of speedometer is unsafe. Abs unit essentially controls instrument cluster..not necessary or safe plus dealer repair part approx $1800.00.

    I purchased a new 2009 toyota camry se, after owning ten toyota vehicles since 1978. I still own four today! I have never experienced anything like this issue in another car. In 2014-2015 (estimated) my entire dash board became sticky, as if i had poured oil on it. Today it releases a thick sticky residue onto the front windshield when parked in the sun. This makes the dash impossible to wipe... As towels, sponges,…

    Excessive oil consumption recall: over the last year i noticed my oil consumption was drastically increasing. I started burning through oil and having to add a quart every 2 months and now monthly. In the past few months, a very large plume of white smoke would spew out of my tail pipes; not just a little but a large cloud of smoke. It has a very burnt smell to it too. The smoke dissipates after the car warms and as…

    The dashboard to my camry is very sticky. I live in the state of florida and the glare on the wind shield caused by the melting dashboard is so bad i have to lean to my right while driving in order to see better. This is definitely a safety issue and i need some information asap on getting this problem resolved. It's a shame that toyota does not correct this issue. How many accidents/deaths have to occur before…

    In spite of keeping sun shades up all the time the car is parked, my dashboard is increasingly sticky and melting. The shiny glare that has developed on the dashboard reflects in my eyes and makes it very difficult to drive safely.

    Sticky dashboard. Depreaciated value to try to seel. Who would want it. Feel stuck. Frustrated. Sticky dashboard causing glare on window that can cause an accident when it sunny out.feel cheated by toyota. I have bought toyotas for the last three cars. Not again. I feel like i can't sell it or even trade it without taking a lost on the value and its their fault not mind. I feel taken, screwed and want something done.

    2 year wait for a recalled dashboard. This is absurd. We are a family of 3 toyota's and this one is an embarrassment. Surely, there is someone who can get this fix done. Please call me, [redacted].

The problem was that as an owner i did not receive any notification of…
