My 2011 Nissan Altima has a melted dashboard and the clear coat is coming off. Most importantly, there is a terrible glare from the damaged dashboard and it is a major safety hazard. See the attached pictures. I contacted Nissan nat'L and they said it was out of warranty, but they would help me. They had me get diagnosis on the dash and clear coat, then told me no, it's out of warranty!!? I understand a lot of other Nissan owners are having the same problems. Nissan has already had a class action lawsuit for these two issues for models up to 2009, so they knew the dash and clear coat were bad, yet they sold new models anyway!
