Component	VISIBILITY/WIPER

Description of the problem	The top of the plastic dashboard has a very shiny sticky oil like substance at migrates to and coats the surface causing an extreme glare on the windshield impairing visibility. In addition, this substance outgasses and condenses on the inside surface of the windshield as a milky haze which further increases the impaired visibility. This condition also affects the rear deck plastic as well. It would appear that a defective batch of plasticizer, or an improper ratio was used during the fabrication of the affected parts causing excessive migration of the plasticizer to the surface. The manufacture is aware of and acknowledges this problem however, no fix or solution is forthcoming. This condition is most prevalent on affected parts used in hot environments ie; florida and southern california. The substance can not be removed by cleaning. It is extremely difficult to see thru the glare and haze on the windshield during sunny days causing a dangerous situation.
