My dashboard has been melted for some time now and it-??s a safety hazard. When I drive at night, the light reflects on the dashboard and it makes it difficult to see, which is very dangerous with my kids in the car. I thought I could clean the dashboard but it-??s very sticky. Apparently this is a common issue with certain models of cars because I saw a news report on it.

The dash board is melting down and when the sun hits the sticky dash board it causes a glare in the windshield to where it makes it hard for you to see.

I have a 2011 Maxima, I purchased new on 5/1/2011. I noticed about 7 months ago my dashboard started becoming shiny looking and sticky to the touch. My car isn't a garage kept car, but I've always used a windshield shade to keep the sun & heat off my dash. Apparently, this dosen't help. It's like my dashboard is slowly melting away! it's getting to the point now where it's causing a glare in direct sunlight and making seeing the road harder now.. oh, and I've only used a damp cloth to clean it in the past, no chemicals, etc.

The rear glass panel of sunroof "exploded" with chunks of glass coming off the panel and over the next few hours the entire panel exhibited major cracking throughout. Sunroof was closed at the time and outside temperature was about 45 degrees. Wife was slowing on highway to turn into driveway. She stated the nearest vehicle was over 1/4 mile ahead of her so no possibility of rock being thrown from their tires. Sounded like a shotgun blast in the car when it occurred. Since it was the back panel no glass fell into the car that we could see.
