THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED, SHINY AND STICKY, SERIOUSLY AFFECTING VIABILITY. I AM NOT THE FIRST OWNER OF THE VEHICLE.

DASHBOARD HAS BECOME SO STICKY TO THE TOUCH THAT IT CAN LONGER BE CLEANED. IT IS OMITTING SOME SORT OF AIR POLLUTANT THAT IS CAUSING THE WINDSHIELD TO BE HARD TO LOOK THROUGH. IT ALSO CAUSING A STRONG GLARE WHEN SUN IS OUT MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AT CERTAIN ANGLES TO THE SUN. CALLED TOYOTA OF ORLANDO (866-945-0493) AND SPOKE TO ASHLEY IN THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON OR ABOUT 11/03/2015 AND SHE CONFIRMED THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE VEHICLE AND SHE SAID THEY WOULD ORDER THE DASH THE FOLLOWING MONDAY. HAVE CALLED NO LESS THEN SIX TIMES TO FOLLOW UP ONLY TO BE TOLD THE PART HAS NOT ARRIVED YET. IT HAS BEEN SIX MONTHS NOW SINCE THE REQUEST FOR SERVICE WAS ORIGINALLY PLACED.

OVERNIGHT MY 2008 CAMRY SOLARA DASHBOARD HAS MULTIPLE CRACKS AND HAS BECOME TACKY AND SHINY. THIS MANUFACTURER DEFECT CONTINUES TO PROGRESS TO CURRENT DATE. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT CAUSES A GLARE WHEN SUN IS IN DIRECTION OF TRAVEL OR SUN IS BELOW 70 DEGREE PLANE TO REFLECT OFF THE DASH SURFACE. POLARIZED SUNGLASSES DEFER SOME OF THE GLARE. THERE IS A SAFETY CONCERNED WITH THE CRACKS EXPANDING AND CHANGING AND THE GUMMY SURFACE BLENDING AROUND AIRBAG LOCATION WHICH WILL PREVENT PASSENGER AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. TOYOTA USA AND DEALER WILL REPAIR AT MY COST WITH A VERY NOMINAL COST ADJUSTMENT ABOUT 20% FOR REPLACING THE DASH SURFACE. THE CAR IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE, ALWAYS GARAGE KEPT AT WORK OR RESIDENCE. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF TOYOTA CARS OR PERHAPS TENS OF THOUSANDS WITH THE SAME ISSUE OVER MULTIPLE MANUFACTURER YEARS. THE DEFECT BECOMES AN ISSUE SHORTLY AFTER THE CARS PASS THE WARRANTY PERIOD. *TR

I HAVE LOVED MY TOYOTA SOLARA EXCEPT FOR ONE MAJOR ISSUE. A FEW YEARS AGO THE DASHBOARD BECAME STICKY AND GUMMY. EVERYTHING STICKS TO IT AND IT IS VERY SOFT TO THE TOUCH. IT IS TOTALLY MELTING AND THE DASHBOARD HAS CHANGED TO A SHINY SURFACE. THE BRIGHT AND SHINY DASHBOARD CREATES A HUGE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD RIGHT IN MY LINE OF VISION. LASTLY, THE DASHBOARD HAS BEGUN CRACKING...FIRST CRACK APPEARED BETWEEN THE AUDIO/RADIO SYSTEM AND THE GLOVE BOX A FEW WEEKS AGO. *TR
