2008 NISSAN ALTIMA Complaints

DASHBOARD IS MELTING!!!!! IT IS MAKING THE DASHBOARD VERY SHINY AND IT IS SO HARD TO SEE FROM THE GLARE! I HAVE HAD SEVERAL "ALMOST ACCIDENTS" FROM NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE. CLEARLY THIS IS A DEFAULT IN THE MATERIAL OF THE DASH. I SEE SEVERAL OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM! THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED FROM THIS STUPID DEFAULT! *TR

THE DASHBOARD OF MY CAR APPEARS TO BE MELTING. IT IS EXTREMELY STICKY AND CANNOT BE CLEANED. THE GLARE SOMETIMES IS UNBEARABLE. I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM BUT APPARENTLY, I'M NOT. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPAIRED. *TR

MY DASHBOARD STARTED MELTING ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO. IT IS GETTING WORSE AND CAUSES A TERRIBLE GLARE ON MY WINDSHIELD. *TR

MY DASHBOARD APPEARS TO BE MELTING. IT IS VERY STICKY TO THE TOUCH AND CREATING A GLARE IN THE WINDSHIELD. I TRIED WIPING IT DOWN WITH A DAMP CLOTH BUT IT REMAINS VERY STICKY AND THE GLARE REMAINS MAKING IT HARD TO SEE IN THE SUN. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF DRIVING ON SUNNY DAYS WITH THE GLARE. *TR

DASHBOARD STARTED MELTING SOON AFTER WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. IT HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AS TIME GOES ON. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE GLARE IT CAUSES AS THE SUN SHINING IN. IT HAS GOTTEN SO STICKY THAT YOU CAN'T EVEN PUT A WINDSHIELD COVER UP TO TRY TO PROTECT THE DASH. EVEN WITH THE WINDSHIELD PROTECTOR THE DASH WAS STILL MELTING. *TR
