| Description of the problem | I purchased this 06 solara with one small crack on the dash, i thought the stickiness and bright shine (that impairs my vision) was due to the use of a vinyl or leather high gloss protector the was used on the dash (silly me). The car is garage kept, a month later i noticed another crack and this is continuing. At the present it looks as if has been in a cat fight. I owned a camry for 12 years and it wasn't garaged, neither did i have this problem. I wonder if there is pressure some where in the dash, is it the material that was used, or is it the design of the dash. Will there ever be a recall or at the least some kind of help with the repair that has affected so many people? |
