Description of the problem | From the start of this year i have realized that my dashboard seems to be melting. Its sticky and shiny and the shininess becomes distracting. I cant wipe it much because particles will stick to it. Toyota is stating i must pay for a new dashboard but i feel that isn't fair due to a defect with the car dashboard. I live in the us virgin islands and temperatures are always hot. I have owned a few cars and been in all my family members cars and have never experienced a melting dashboard. |
