Nissan Altima dashboard cracking and leaving chemical smell. Cracking advances in the sunlight/heat. Appears to be an issue with Nissan Altimas in the 2007-2009 range.
Melting and cracked dashboard.
My dashboard is cracked by many parts. My car is always in a garage, because I don't work. Sole owner since 2007, no kids.
While walking to the vehicle an object was seen hanging down from behind the left drivers side rear wheel area. After crawling under the vehicle to investigate I positively confirmed the rear sway bar was broken off right at the bushing. The driver side end of this bar is still attached at the linkage rods, but is completely broken off from the rest of the sway bar at the left side bushing and bracket. Please force Nissan to step up to the plate and at least issue a service bulletin if they are too stubborn to issue a recall. Make them agree in writing to dump the manufacturer of this inferior hollow part. Judging by the numerous broken 2007 Altima sway bar complaints, there is an apparent quality problem here.
Help please! my 07 Altima dashboard is cracking on its own. It is also melting and Nissan will not do anything about it. The glare from the shiny dash is hard to see when driving in direct sunlight.

Nissan Altima 2007 4 cyl. The entire dashboard is cracking in various areas. Many lengthy cracks which are beginning to open wider and becoming larger. Also the dashboard is very sticky. This vehicle has been garaged for 4 years. Would be nice if Nissan would look into this defect. I have seen many other owners complaining of the same problems with the dashboard.
My nissian Altima, the dashboard is starting to crack and melt. The local news channel in my area did investigation on this problem. Looks like I'm not the only one having this problem. They advise to file a complaint, and the local dealership only solution is to have the whole dashboard replaced.
The dash board appears to be falling apart. It has become shiny, sticky, and has multiple cracks that can be seen all over the dash and they are getting worse with time. My vehicle is parked in an enclosed garage most of the time. This does not appear to be simple wear and tear but a defect with the material used to construct the dash. This is ultimately a safety issue as the glare inside the vehicle at times can cause you to be unable to see out your front windshield.
