Dash Is melting and cracked. Causing visibility impairment.

Something on windshield that makes it hard to see, it impairs my vision. Dashboard Is literally melting! it's sticky! now I don't understand why Lexus doesnt take care of their customers and send out a recall. Fix their mistakes and do it right. I understand they tried to pass some cheaper products off on their vehicles but that only bought them some time. Word of mouth Is their worst enemy right now.

The dashboard of my 2006 Lexus Is250 Is slowly melting and becoming sticky. Unfortunately as it has, deteriorated the dashboard really reflects the light, so much so that it becomes blinding at times. I have not treated my dash with any chemicals or cleaners this Is a known problem among Lexus owners, it just at times becomes very worrisome since the glare from the dash onto my windshield becomes blinding at times if the light hits it right.

Back in sept 2014, I notice a brown stripe in the rear view mirror, but I tough it was dirty, then after a few months it got worse, and now Is very difficult to see, I think it should be an investigation of this problem and a recall because there are many owners of this model with that problem. There Is no reason for a mirror to turn brown like that unless Is like 50 yrs old.

I have a melting dashboard. The dashboard has been turning soft, gooey, and shiny over the years. If I reach for something on the dashboard a piece of the dashboard comes off with the slightest touch of my hand. The shine Is extremely dangerous in that it obstructs and distracts the view of the driver. A recall should be alerted to resolve this Issue. Ive contacted Lexus about this Issue several times and I get no help from regarding the dashboard.

The dashboard on my Lexus Is250 has started to litterally melt. It Is very sticky to the touch and very shiny. The shinyness causes a very serious glare on my front windshield which can blind the driver.

The dashboard Is melting and Is so shiny when the sun or light hits the windshield it blinds you very very dangerous something must be done no one else should have to die before you guys force Toyota/ Lexus to recall and fix this problem !!!!!!.

The dashboard seems to be melting and Is sticky and shiny. It creates a blind spot when the sun hits it just right. I contacted my Lexus dealer in austin and they say car Is out of warranty so they want us to pay to fix it. I don't think a dashboard should be melting and turning glossy. This should be considered a defect that poses a safety Issue.

The safety Issue with my vehicle Is the "melting dashboard," it seems to be common with vehicles like mine. The stick-glue like substance Is not only a nuisance but also a safety hazard. It creates a glare on the windshield that makes it nearly impossible to look straight forward, especially during afternoon hours of driving. At times I have to lean to one side or the other. The gooey substance and gashes along with the safety concern over the glare in my opinion call for a recall. This Is not normal. Please look into this Issue.

My navigation system screen stopped working while 1000 miles away from home. The biggest problem with the screen going out was the fact that all of the heating and air conditioning controls are ran through that same unit. Without being able to adjust my temperature in the vehicle I am not able to defrost the windshield in times when it may fog up.

I have a sticky dashboard with all four of doors are cracking,soft and sticky, upon touching the sticky soft dash rubs off onto your hands and clothes, there's a glare that reflects unto you eyes when the sun shines upon sitting and/or driving which causes a severe vision impairment which can and will cause an accident eventually.

Minimum visibility because of melting dashboard. The glare from the sun does not let you see.

Took car to dealership due to shiny and sticky dashboard. Was told this Is a known problem but will not repair under good will since warranty has passed. Dashboard Is extremely sticky, will this cause air bag problems during an accident? the shiny surface also reflects and makes driving difficult in sunlight.

The dashboard panel has deteriorated to the point that it Is soft, tacky, and a significant glare Is reflected onto the windshield reducing a driver's visibility. The deterioration continues to worsen spreading throughout the dashboard where the passenger airbag Is enclosed.

I received 2 recalls in the mail one was for front wiper nut and the other was trunk release lever. I called Lexus of mobile to set up apt to have the recalls fixed. I live in destin, FL and mobile Is the closest Lexus dealership. I have had another recall on my Lexus Isf and they picked it up and left another Lexus until they were able to have it done. This Lexus dealership just doesn't meet standards of the Lexus experience I actually flew to Lexus in knoxville in 2008 to get my Lexus Isf because the mobile Lexus Is horrible customer service. With all this said the lady I talked to today lynn worthington was one of the worse customer service people. I asked if they could pick up my car 1. Because it Is a 2hr drive 2. I do work land 3. I didn't cause this recall the letter was sent to me. She told me it was nothing dangerous (the nut on the wiper) it was only if you were dealing with snow. This may be true I don't know but I would hate to be driving down the road and it fall off because she says it Is nothing. This being said she said no they would not pick up the car of course she was rude the people that work there usually are. I feel as though I should still experience the Lexus experience I have loved my car and would like to buy another but not with this type of service. The conversation ended with her saying she would call me tomorrow because it's expensive for them to pay drivers to come here. Really? wow! I thought that's why you buy expensive cars to get a little service.

As I drove down i95 my visibility was impaired by a large glare on my window cause by a reflection off of the melted and defected Lexus Is250's dash board. I have brought this up to Lexus of pembroke pines and was told the can not do anything for me.

The rear view mirror has become blackened with spots over time, visibility Is reduced.

Bought a certified pre-owned 2006 Lexus Is250 from hawaii dealer, noticed there was a massively blinding glare from the dashboard when driving during the morning and evening hours. Upon further inspection the dashboard and various other interior trim pieces felt soft/sticky and would easily scratch and gouge. This has been a known problem among owners of 2006-2013 Lexus Is sedans.

Dashboard has melted with a liquid appearance. When the sun Is high in the sky, a reflection causes a severe glare on the windshield. Often it Is necessary to move my head over around the glare to see whats directly in front. The dealer so far has just stated we should get the dash replaced at our expense, but this does not seem like something that should have to be replaced on a luxury car after only 5 or 6 years. We may be forced to do this to keep the car safe. We have heard there are some class action lawsuits starting in some states. We may be interested in participating in one of these to get the dash replaced.

My dashboard Is melting horribly. I have contacted Lexus on several occassions. I was told that I first needed to bring it the nearest dealership in my area to have to serviced and get an estimate. The service report stated that the dash was in fact melting and needed to be replaced. I followed up with another call to Lexus and was informed that it was out of warranty and that it could not be replaced. I indicated that that Issue Is by far not a warranty Issue but in fact a defect in the material used to make the dashboard. The visibility on the driver side Is horrible and quite dangerous.

The dash of my vehicle melts on moderately warm days. It gets so shiny that it reflects off the windshield, making it very difficult to see. Others have also complained about the fumes making them physically ill. The manufacturer had a brief program (zld) to replace the dashboard, but I did not receive a notification and missed the very short window. I don't understand how this Is something that they can now refuse to fix in my vehicle when it clearly affects safety. This Is a recurring and persistent Issue and has been for years.

Dashboard on this vehicle Is slowly melting off causing a hazardous glare when driving. The glare interferes with vision while driving. With the dashboard melting I am now questioning whether the air bags are in full function or if they are faulty. The door panels are staining clothing and handbags as well. Lexus has said this has been reported many times and they are aware but they are unable to assist with this Issue. Driving this car during daylight Is becoming dangerous.

Very big glare in dashboard that blinds your view in the windshield while driving.

Black dashboard of vehicle Is "melting" causing a glare on the windshield for the driver. This Is a safety concern as your vision of the road and surroundings are compromised. The inside door panels of the vehicle are also made from the same material as the dashboard. From a cosmetic standpoint the dashboard and door panels cannot be touched without leaving a mark or print behind. I have reached out to the local treasure coast Lexus dealership and the Lexus customer service line twice to be told that I am responsible as the owner to repair. Because I did not purchase their warranty, I am out of luck. Lexus Is negligent for the materials used in production for this vehicle. Will it take a vehicle accident before they take action for their customers? I hope not.

I bought this vehicle used from a dealership in miami, FL. The first couple of weeks I noticed the driver and passenger door panels were getting scratched by simply touching them. A couple of weeks after that, the dashboard on the vehicle started to "melt" and became very sticky. Also by simply touching the dashboard, it become/becomes scratched and pieces come out when touched with fingernails. Sometimes it Is difficult/impossible to see when the sun Is out because it creates a huge glare due to the dash melting. This problem has been getting worst as time passes. I contacted the dealer regarding the problem and they told me they were aware of it but I would have to pay the labor and dash cost if I wanted the problem to go away, est cost: $1200. The same problems are on driver, passenger and backseat door panels.

Black dashboard and inside door panels are melting on my 2007 Lexus Is 250. While driving, the sun will glare off of the melting dashboard compromising viability to the driver. If you touch the dashboard, an imprint Is left. Valet services are unable to place tickets, or any other material for that matter, on the dashboard because it will stick to the dashboard and leave residue. The same material Is used for the door panels. As you open the car door from the inside of the vehicle, the black material gets caught under male and female fingernails, gouging the material. I believe this Is a manufacturing defect. This Is not a result of owner neglect. On a side note; this vehicle has lived in many environments - colorado (dry climate), texas (dry climate), and florida (moist and warm climate). Lexus customer service has been contacted and does not take responsibility for the defect. If I want it fixed, Lexus states that it Is my financial responsibility to replace. If cosmetics and quality are not important to Lexus, safety should be!.

My rear view mirror Is discolored and has black spots on it. It's a safety Issue and it's difficult to see. I've told the dealer several times and they said it would cost over 800 to replace the part. I see many Lexus owners have the same Issue and I believe its a defalt in the part. I dont think I should pay 800 to have it replaced.

Rear view mirror on my 2006 Lexus Is350 has horrible visibility. It Is not damaged on the surface. The surface Is smooth and clean, however there are multiple spots where visibility Is not available.

The dashboard Is melting, it gets sticky and when driving in the sun there's a noticeable glare that makes it hard to drive. And the same thing Is happening to the driver side door.

Dashboard Is extremely sticky as if melted and causes an awful glare on the windshield during night and day hours. Lexus said this was a vanity Issue and would not warranty it out. I do not have the money to replace the dashboard. Also the handles on the doors where the same materials Is, Is very soft and able to be manipulated which does not affect driving but it Is an Issue.

The entire dashboard and top section of the front door panels in my 2006 Lexus Is250 are basically melting. The consistency has deteriorated so drastically that the dash Is shiny, sticky and covered in small nicks and scratches. The dash Is so soft even the slightest touch leaves a permanent scar! efforts to clean or treat the dash/door panels are useless - anything I use just sticks. My clothes have been ruined by black sticky residue from simply coming in contact with the door panels. The sheen from the melting dash reflects directly onto the windshield at such an angle that it's difficult to see in some lighting. This Is obviously a manufacturing error Lexus refuses to correct. Any help Is greatly appreciated.
