Description of the problem	I notice a shine started to build up on my dashboard. I thought that the car wash place might have used too much product so i stopped going to the carwash. I decided i was going to clean it off myself and when i went to clean it off i realized there was a thick film of sticky residue. The residue is was so sticky that nothing could take it off and everything would get stuck to it. After a few months the film kept growing to the point where the shine became almost glassy and too reflective. I realized the substance had become a hazard to my safety and those of others, so i proceeded to try a number of products to try and remove the film. I was unsuccessful and proceeded to do some research online, where i discovered that this is not a maintenance problem, but rather a factory defect that is well documented now with both this agency and nissan itself. As far as i can tell there are at least 100 other cases. I would like nissan to acknowledge and repair the problem before lives are lost.
