DASHBOARD ON MY 2009 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID BOUGHT IN FLORIDA NEW HAS BECOME A DANGER TO DRIVING DO TO THE SHINY AND STICKINESS ON THE DASHBOARD. BACK IN AUGUST 13, 2014 I NOTICED WHEN DRIVING IN THE DAYLIGHT THE GLARE FROM THE DASHBOARD DISTORTS YOUR VIEW THE PROBLEM IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE I CALLED THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR AND I TOLD THE SERVICE MANAGER THE PROBLEM HE SAID THEY KNOW ABOUT IT AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO.I WENT TO A CAR DETAILING SERVICE AND THEY SAID IT IS THE WORSE THEY SEEN HE ALSO CHECKED ON THE WEBSITE FOR A SOLUTION, NOW IT IS UP TO NHTSA TO FORCE TOYOTA TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BEFORE SOME ONE GETS KILLED. *TR

THE DASH ON THE CAMRY BECOMES VERY TACKY AND REFLECTIVE, ESPECIALLY DURING WARMER WEATHER. OBSCURES VISION THROUGH WINDSHIELD DUE TO GLARE AND REFLECTION. ALSO CONCERNED OF ANY TOXIC FUMES WHICH MAY BE RELEASED DUE TO THIS CHEMICAL REACTION IN AN ENCLOSED CABIN OF A VEHICLE. *TR

VSC SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT COMES ON, AND THE BRAKES BECOME VERY "SOFT", NEARLY FAILING. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN TEMPERATURES REACH 50 DEGREES OR BELOW, AND IS QUITE COMMON WHEN IT'S AROUND FREEZING OR BELOW. *TR

MY HUSBAND & I WERE INVOLVED IN A COLLISION WITH A DEER ON JUNE 8, 2014, WITH OUR 2009 CAMRY HYBRID. WE WERE TRAVELING ABOUT 70 MPH ON INTERSTATE 72 EAST AROUND JACKSONVILLE, IL. IT WAS A FRONT END COLLISION AS YOU WILL SEE IN THE PICTURES. NEITHER OF US WAS INJURED; HOWEVER, THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. HAD THIS BEEN SOMETHING STATIONARY THAT WE HAD THE COLLISION WITH WE WOULD HAVE BEEN INJURED. CAN YOU TELL ME WHY THIS WOULD HAPPEN? I AM NOW VERY CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY IN MY CAR. - THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE REPORTED THIS AND HAVE GOTTEN NO FOLLOW UP. *TR
