Glare off dash board is blinding on sunny days. Dashboard is melting, the melted dash reflection is distraciton/ binding on sunny days, and smell from dash is not pleasant. Not knowing actual product that is melting is concerning since melting plastics and vinyl can be toxic. Took car out for ride on sunny day had to pull over because of glare dashboard. Tried to contact Nissan about any products to resurface and contain the melted mess an smell. They offered no solutions besides take in to local dearliship. Not shelling out 500 dollars for nationally known defective material. You can contact any quality managment firm or producer that have working knowledge with plastics and vinyl to confirm that this is a major quality defect. I can not even find out what actual material was used to cover for soft dash.

The dashboard in this vehicle similar to other Nissan models that have already been recalled is cracked, sticky, shiny and glossy. It-??s dangerous to have cracks in the dashboard in case of airbag deployment. The glossy shiny dashboard creates a blinding glare and is extremely dangerous while driving. It creates a glare that makes the front windshield appear black and unable to see through.

The dashboard is defective and breaking down chemically. The chemical compound that the dashboard is made of is not resistant to sunlight causing it to crack break down and become very shiny. Not only does this admit harmful toxins that can be breathed in by the passengers, more dangerously it creates a glare on the windshield making it difficult to see through the window. This can impair vision resulting in an accident by the driver. In addition from what I understand the airbag is under this piece of equipment which is degrading and faulty.

The dashboard is actually melting and becoming sticky nothing is able to clean it this causes a very shiny reflection of the sun that bounces back on the windshield making it hard to see at times therefore being a hazard

The dashboard on my 2008 Nissan altman is melting and is causing extremely impaired visibility due to the glare that is produced from reflection of light. On very sunny days, I feel nervous driving because it is so difficult to see. Also, when I initially start the car for the first time each day, it gives off this noxious odor that causes much concern about the toxicity of these fumes. The issue first became apparent in approximately 2016, but has progressively become worse.

The dashboard has melted causing dangerous sun glare. The dashboard is sticky, goody liquid like reflective surface. The extreme reflectiveness of the melted surface makes it very difficult to see out of the windshield when driving in sunshine.

My 2008 Nissan Altima coupe 2.5S' dashboard is melting giving off toxic fumes and making my visibility terrible while driving because the melting/sticky dashboard reflects into the windshield and Nissan refuses to fix it for free. The reflection in the windshield is particularly worse when driving towards the sun to the point where I cannot see anything while driving. I bought the vehicle with the dashboard like that because I figured that gooey gone could fix it but it didn't. again Nissan refuses to fix this problem and it is very dangerous while driving.

The dashboard is literally melting and it started just 6 yrs into owning the car. When I contacted the company and showed them what was happening and how it can affect my visibility due to reflection they advised that what they were seeing in the pictures was due to "environmental exposure" and that repair would need to be covered by me. Honestly, I found that hard to believe considering the company has two existing class action lawsuits against them in other states for the same issue. I have never seen anything like it before, and have heard of competitors with the same issue actually doing a recall on their vehicles. This company however, does not seem like it wants to take the blame for their own poor manufacturing. So in the mean time I cover it with fabric in order to diffuse the problem in the mean time.

Melting dash causing unsafe glare reflecting off windshield.

My dashboard is melting and it has gotten worse within the last two (2) years. I have trouble seeing the road when it is sunny because I get a big glare in the windshield due to the reflection of the melting dashboard. Also, I noticed I have been getting dizzy, upper respiratory problems and headaches right after I get in the car when it has been parked in the sun, despite a car window shield I put on it to protect it from the sun.

- Saint Petersburg, FL, USA

Not a single event... dashboard has progressively gotten softer/stickier over the past few years. It is now cracked and is melting next to the windshield. It has off-gassed an unremovable film on the bottom half of the glass, and the car has such a noxious smell from the fumes we no longer feel it's healthy to drive without the windows down.

- Wylie, TX, USA

I own a 2008 Nissan Altima. The dashboard began melting about 3 years ago however recently it started to melt more and become sticky to the touch. Every time I drive my vehicle, the glare that shines onto my windshield from the dashboard is terrible, so bad that it is hard to see at times. It has caused me to have trouble identifying things while driving. I have contacted Nissan about this issue and they will not acknowledge the issue and will charge $2500 for a new dashboard.

Our 2008 Nissan Altima dashboard has melted leaving it sticky and shiny causing distracting and glaring reflections off their windshields. I'll taking it to dealership twice about dashboard but they stated they was unaware of any issue with this vehicle dashboard. The second time I told them about the multiple lawsuits I found on-line and they directed my to Nissan consume department. Nissan told me the unit was out warranty and will not assist.

The visibility is difficult because of the melted -sticky dashboard. The glare blinds you when the sun hits you. There is no reason the dashboard should just "melt"
