Earlier this year I noticed cracks showing up around my ignition, those cracks have spread up to the top of the dash on the drivers side. Now, there are cracks on the passenger side leading up to and around the airbag. Just this week, I noticed the dash is starting to get tacky and dust is starting to stick to it. I am beginning to be concerned. About the safety as it appears the dash is deteriorating more and more as the days go by and am concerned for anyone riding with me. I understand Lexus has been aware of this problem for quite sometime but have failed to correct the defective dashes.

The dashboard on my 2006 Lexus RX330 has deteriorated over time. There are cracks in the dash, and soft spots that reflect sunlight as glare to the occupants of the car. My Lexus dealership (Lexus of tampa bay, fl) has so far been unable to help me with the dashboard defect. They told me Toyota corporate won't acknowledge the defect, nor provide any relief, especially since my car is out of warranty. I should note my car is kept in a garage, and the dashboard is only exposed to the Florida sun when I am driving (with the air conditioning on).
