2010 NISSAN ALTIMA Complaints

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2010 ALTIMA IS MELTING. I HAVE FOUND MANY OTHER OWNERS COMPLAINING OF THIS SAME PROBLEM AND I BELIEVE THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN PROCESS FOR 2008 AND 2009 MODELS BUT HAVE NOT FOUND ANYTHING RELATED TO THE 2010 MODEL YEAR. BESIDES BEING UNSIGHTLY AND ANNOYING AS MANY PARTS OF THE DASHBOARD ARE SOFT AND PERMANENTLY STICKY IT IS ALSO DANGEROUS. IN CERTAIN LIGHTING CONDITIONS THE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD REFLECTING OFF THE SHINY MELTING AREAS IS QUITE SIGNIFICANT INDICATED THIS OCCURRED ON 3/1/15 AS A DATE WAS REQUIRED. OBVIOUSLY THIS HAS DETERIORATED OVER TIME AND I AM NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER.

TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE A 2010 NISSAN ALTIMA. RECENTLY THE DASHBOARD APPEARS TO BE MELTING. THERE IS A STICKY RESIDUE ON MY DASHBOARD NEAR THE WINDSHIELD IT IS VERY CONCERNING BECAUSE THE GLARE FROM THE RESIDUE HAS OBSTRUCTED MY VIEW ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS.

THEY REALLY SHOULD RECALL THE ISSUE IT IS QUITE DANGEROUS!

DASH BOARD IS MELTING. HAS BECOME STICKY AND SHINNY CAUSING A GLARE WHEN SUN HITS IT. THIS OCCURS FROM EXPOSURE TO THE SUNLIGHT.

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING CAUSING A BAD GLARE. I CAN'T BARLEY SEE 10 FEET IN FRONT OF ME WHEN DRIVING DURING THE DAY. TRIED CONTACTING NISSAN TO FIX THE ISSUE THEY REFUSE. I EVEN OFFERED TO PAY LABOR & PARTS, BUT THEY WANT TO MAKE MONEY OFF MY FIXING MY SAFETY ISSUE. HUNDREDS OF OTHER DRIVERS ARE FACING THIS PROBLEM. IT MUST COST $300 TO FIX THIS ISSUE PER VEHICLE AND IF WE DON'T SOMEONE IS GOING TO END UP HURT OR DEAD. IT WOULD BE SAD TO THINK THAT A LIFE IS LESS IMPORTANT THEN FIXING THIS ISSUE OF VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING.

ALL FOUR OF DOOR LOCKS FAILED, WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK PLUS 1 WINDOW FAILED, WILL NOT LOWER.
