| Description of the problem | I recently bought a used 2009 camry, with a melting dashboard. The car salesperson told me it's just cleaner, so of course i believed them. Although, when i got home i read all about toyota's problem with melting dashboards. I am very upset with this company's interior manufacturing. There is an intense reflection on the windshield due to the sticky dashboard. This makes it hard to see while driving. |
