Description of the problem | The dashboard seems to be melting and is sticky and shiny. It creates a blind spot when the sun hits it just right. I contacted my lexus dealer in austin and they say car is out of warranty so they want us to pay to fix it. I don't think a dashboard should be melting and turning glossy. This should be considered a defect that poses a safety issue. |
