| Description of the problem | The dashboard on my 2008 toyota camry is melting, and in the process becoming sticky and shiny. The stickiness is a nuisance, but the shininess is a hazard as it promotes heavy glare on the windshield. It makes me on a sunny day they can lose sight of the road, i almost hit another car due to the visibility. This is on the news, internet. I didn't receive any letter from toyota about enhancement warranty and even when i check with toyota dealer they said it has no recalls. Now toyota said my car out of warranty 7 mpnths ago, and they can't do anything. This should be a recall. |
