| Description of the problem | My nissan altima coupe interior dashboard is melting. It is very very shiny, and very sticky all across the areas adjacent to the windshield area. The glare is impossible to see through. In florida that is much of the daylight hours when the sun is the most intense. It is very unsightly as well. This began in october 2013. It has progressively become worse. This car was garage kept a large part of the time i have owned it. There has been nothing applied to the dash. I purchased this car new. |
