| Description of the problem | The dashboard of my altima is melting and has been melting. It is extremely hard to see when driving, in fact has almost gotten me in multiple wrecks. Is it still safe enough not to be recalled? When the sun hits the windshield i can hardly see. You'd rather risk lives rather than have the manufacture replace a faulty cosmetic part they put on the market. |
