Have also noticed a glare on dashboard while driving. You can also put your fingernail thorough parts of the dashboard, very sticky and soft.

I have not experienced issues with the dashboard till this last month and was not aware of any issues concerning this part of the car. Nor did i receive anything which stated there was anything going on with the dashboard for this make or model. |
