- Conroe, TX, USA

My entire dashboard has started to disintegrate. I noticed it started to get shiny and sticky by the window and it is now the entire thing is so soft I can slightly press my finger nail into the plastic and it will actually cut or gouge the plastic. I have never seen a cars dashboard do this. I only use water and a cloth to clean the dash and crack my windows in the summer to avoid extremely hot temps. It is like the sun has melted the dashboard but it doesn't matter how hot or cold it is it is always brittle.

Dashboard has black sticky substance that reflects a glare and is hard to see out of the windshield. The glare is so distracting at times that it is hard to see the road clearly.

- Spring, TX, USA

My 2008 Nissan Altima dash has been melting for the past 3-4 years and is now causing an inability to see while driving. There is a large reflection on the windshield during daytime driving making it very difficult to see objects and other cars in front of me. The corporate office at Nissan offered 1/2 off the price, but I believe this should be a recall due to the dangers that it's causing for many drivers.

- Deltona, FL, USA

Dashboard in 2008 Nissan Altima appears to be melting, becoming very sticky and causing a glare on the windshield. Unable to clean it with anything, due to the gummy texture of the dash. Has a shiny appearance to it and gets worse every day. This is causing a problem with vision on bright sunny days while driving. Afraid as it gets progressively worse how it will affect the electrical components inside of the dash area.

- Ocilla, GA, USA

The dash of my 2008 Nissan Altima is melting or deteriorating. It has become so shiny that when the sun or streetlights reflect on my windshield, it is almost a complete white-out effect. I nearly hit a pedestrian crossing the street because I could not see them. Nissan has been contacted repeatedly and I have not had an acknowledgement from them. A local dealer said that this was not a defect, but I have seen numerous complaints about the same problem. The stickiness I could live with, but the way it reflects off my windshield is dangerous.

The dashboard is sticky which sometimes causes a glare on the windshield when driving the vehicle. My daughter is 18 and the primary driver of the vehicle. She has stated that sometimes on sunny days there is a glare on the windshield caused by the sticky dashboard. My concern is for her safety when driving and this causing an accident because of it. We live in Texas where the heat and sun can be extreme at times.

Dashboard, steering wheel, and shift handle have all melted from heat. The dashboard has become almost liquified, and the glare from the now shiny surface creates a reflection on the windshield, creating a safety hazard. The steering wheel has become gummy, making steering unsafe, and the rubbery material on the shift handle has become gummy, making it difficult to safely shift gears accuarately.
