Over time, my dashboard has melted and has become sticky. I have tried my best to deal with it, but it is a safety hazard. It causes a reflection of my dashboard on my driver's window, making it hard to see when I am driving (especially when it is sunny...and I live in los angeles, California...where the majority of the time it is sunny.) I called Toyota and they claim to have sent out an extended warranty, but I have never received a notice. They claim they can't fix it anymore because of an expired warranty (which I was never notified of...if I was, I would've fixed it asap). It is dangerous to drive due to their faulty manufacturing.

There is an oil consumption issue and Toyota is saying it is an extended warranty issue, that has expired and that I am going to have to fix it and pay for it all out of pocket. This should be a recall not a waranty issue. It's not fair or right and they should stand behind their production issues that are flawed. This is a saftey issue because the light doesn't even come on when it is low, so if I don't check often then I am in danger when I am driving. I bought the car to drive, not to become a mechanic.

So in my 2007 Toyota Camry my windshield that had no chips and was in perfect condition. And parked in a parking lot. I was sitting in my car about to get out when I watched the windshield crack by itself independently nothing hitting it no chips or imperfections to make it crack no sounds nothing it started on the passenger side in a spiderweb fashion and cracked all the way across my windshield and keeps continuing to spiderweb across the entire windshild there was no chips initially nothing hit it no pressure after talking to several professionals they also can not see a reason for the cracked windshield states it looks like it cracked from the center out. I researched and found I'm not the only person this has happened to on this make and model car

I purchased this car brand new from the dealer who registered it and gave me paperwork listing my address on all of the forms. I just recently found out that there was an extended warranty program for the driver side visor defect. I had been having issues with it for a few years but since I rarely drive during the daytime it wasn't an issue until my shift changed. So now it's broken and today, years later, Toyota tells me that the warranty information was sent to an address other than the one I have lived since I purchased this car. Since I didn't register the car and all of my paperwork had my then and still address on it, I feel that they should honor the warranty because they sent it to an address that wasn't mine. They will not give me the address but referred me to my state' dmv, who also will not give me this phantom address where my info was sent. Colonial Toyota registered the car for me so I have no idea what mistakes were made in the registration process and no way of getting the information. Toyota is doing what all big companies do, pass the mistakes they made to the consumer. I will never purchase anything from atoyota dealer ever again.

My 2007 Toyota Camry has developed a shiny, sticky dashboard. Not only is it sticky but it because it is so shiny it produces a glare so seeing the road becomes more difficult. This glare is a safety hazard as it makes it difficult to see. I called my local Toyota dealer and they informed me that there was nothing they could do about it except replace the dashboard at my expense. They stated a few years ago there was a program to replace the dashboards as the warranty was extended but since my problem happened after the extended warranty expired I was out of luck. Why didn't I get notified of the extended warranty or the issue with the dashboard? I have had this car since it was new so they had all of my information in their database and contacting me would have been very easy. I was going to pass this car down to my daughter that just got her license, but I am hesitant to let her drive the car as the glare makes it dangerous to drive. I don't want to put my daughter in an unsafe vehicle.

My Toyota did not exhibit the sticky dashboard until June of 2017. I was told that the recall only went until May 0F 2017 and was refused by Toyota. It seems to me that it was a definite factory defect and should have been corrected. Now I have this continous glare which affects both day and night visability.

I am complaining about my 2007 Toyota Camry SE car. This car has a dashboard problem that can cause severe accidents. Its dashboard is becoming sticky, smelly and shiny as a mirror. The problem has been developing for years and it is getting worse. When I call a Toyota dealer about 3-4 years ago to ask whether there was a recall or other solution to this problem, I was told there was no recall and they could do nothing. This year, the problem is becoming severe since the shiny dashboard often blinds my eyes and I almost hit a walker. I googled this problem and found tons of similar complains and some lucky costumers got free replacement. So, I called the same dealer again asking about the policy. I was told that there was a recall several years ago, but it expired two years ago, so they could do nothing. This answer is ridiculous considering I called them before. I then call the headquarter. The operator told me that it was not a recall, but an extended 10-year warrantee. Since my car has been more than ten years, Toyota will not be responsible for the dashboard unless I have written evidence that I contacted Toyota before about the dashboard. My complains are as follows: (1)this dashboard problem should be a recall since it can cause dangerous accidents. As mentioned, the specular reflection from the shiny dashboard can blind the drivers and make the driving very dangerous. Toyota must have known this problem a long time ago and should notice all costumers to change the dashboard for free, instead of finding excuses to reject most unlucky customers. Toyota should be responsible and care about its customers' lives. (2)Toyota shouldn't put the burden of providing evidence only on costumers. The request of written evidence that I contacted the dealer before is ridiculous. The fact that the dealer failed to provide me a right suggestion/solution becomes my fault.

The dashboard is sticky and melting and it puts a glare in front windshield day and night which make it hard to see. I bought car from its original owner and it was doing this when I got it. I thought it was because it was recently detailed, and come to find out, this is a permanent issue.

2007 Toyota Camry's were installed with a sun visor that was later recalled due to a defect in the inner plastic body.... making the arm unable to hold the visor in place effectively, obstructing the view of the driver. I went to Toyota who said that the recall is expired and I would have to pay full price. I never received information regarding the recall.

After the car engine odometer hit 70.000 the car started to burn oil more than normal. I took the car for an oil change and the car had very little oil. Since then I had to add 3 quarts of oil in between oil change at 78.000 and 2 quarts of oil in between oil change at 83.000 miles.

Dashboard is sticky and cracked in multiple places much like that on the sienna when it had a problem. It is our son's car that we drove for the first time in a while so we do not know the date the problem started.

The dash on my 2007 Camry is sticky and soft. It creates a glare that at times makes it difficult to see. It accumulates dust and dirt. I contacted Toyota regarding any recall and was told there is nothing. In addition both visors have failed which also appears to be an issue with this year of vehicle.

"takata recall" while driving my 2007 Camry I've always noticed that my dashboard was extremely sticky and seemed to be melting. My wife noticed and said it wasn't normal she google it and said that it was a recall on the dashboards being defected. I'm trying to find out what step do I need to take in rectifying this issue.

Melting dashboard. Bought a used 2007 Camry. Thought the dashboard was just overdone with armour all. Found out the dashboard is melting causing multiple problems but the dangerous glare is the biggest concern. Called Toyota. They said there was a time limit on this defect being fixed. They have admitted this is a defect but wont fix it.

Takata recall sun visors falling down

The dashboard in my Camry is tacky and sticky. I have the service bulletin but they are telling me it is expired. It is really a bad issue. Toyota has made billions from selling cars in America alone and they allowed defective materials to used in the construction of their cars and that is not fair to the consumer. This should be a total recall in place of a service bulletin. This could be a safety hazard should someone come in contact with this defective material in a crash.
