| Description of the problem | This vehicle was purchased brand new at sterling mccall toyota, houston, texas in 2007. It has had only one owner and currently has approximately 148,00 miles. The concern on this vehicle is that the dashboard has melted within time, and sticky. This is in the area closest to the front windshield. With this being the case, the melted dash has become shiny in this area and causes an extreme inter glare. This causes a hazard with the driver during daylight driving hours. I have called multiple dealerships and informed them about the dashboard. All of the dealerships that i have contacted have told me that there are no recalls or technical service bulletins with this issue. I have researched the internet and have found a lot of complainants online with the same problem. Thank you concerned consumer |
