| Description of the problem | Melting dashboard, very sticky, everything sticks to it and the top layer (vinyl?) that is melting comes up when something sticks to it and is removed. The dash is very shiny, causing extreme glare on windshield. Glare very bad, lowers visibility, dangerous. The hotter the days, the stickier, more shiny this gets. Even when putting up a sunshade, the dash gets worse and worse. Photo taken on 9/7/2020 attached shows how bad glare is. |
