| Description of the problem | Dash started to get sticky and whatever i tried to clean it with would end up sticking to it. Over time this has gotten much worse. Today , if you put your finger into the dash it will create an indentation and stay that way. I have been on the internet about this issue and a lot of toyota owners seem to be having the same problem. It is time for me to purchase a new vehicle and im not sure if i should get another toyota or go to a different vehicle. I have tried to sell my car out right and every dealer is taking at least $2000. 00 off of what the car is worth. Why has this problem not been recalled? It is obviously a manufacturers issue and should be repaired or replaced by toyota. Im hoping that you will be able to help me resolve this issue as soon as possible. |
