| Description of the problem | 2009 toyota camry hybrid dashboard melting in florida sun. I am concerned that the airbags will not deploy properly due to defect. Contacted toyota regarding defect and was told that they know about the problem and have fixed the problem, but owners like me are out of luck. The cost for new dashboard is $1,400. I asked if they were certain that it would not affect airbag deployment and was told there is no way to know for sure. *js |
