| Description of the problem | I purchased my 2009 nissan altima in january of 2017.. By may 2017 i noticed as the climate changed my dash was sticky and if your finger scraped it pieces would come pff.. I noticed my dash was melting as the summer went on and it was sticky and dust or a wash cloth i used to clean it particles were sticking to the dash. When the sun is out the sun hits spots where it blinds you driving due to the dash melting.. The dash should not melt in a car and its a real issue that now even though i love my car i want to get rid of it due to the dash melting. |
