On May 22, 2015, when I got into my car, the sun visor was down. I tried to put it back into its proper place, but it would not stay up. No matter what I tried, it kept flopping down, obstructing the view when driving. If I push it forward toward the front window, I can see better, but still I don't have maximum visibility. It flops back down at times, totally blocking my view of the road and the review mirror. This is a definitely safety hazard and if authorities were aware, I would probably be given a citation for driving an unsafe car. When it flops down and obstructs view of the rear view mirror, the only way I can see what is behind me is by using the side view mirrors which takes longer and, therefore, could easily cause an accident. I find that many others have filed complaints about the sun visor problem, yet Toyota continues to deny responsibility. If this is the way Toyota stands behind their cars, I need to return to Nissan for my next car.

The sun visor is broken. It occurred through normal use. The cars that were affected by the 2007 to 2011 Camry. Toyota is not standing behind their product.

The passenger side sunvisor flops down unexpectedly obstructing the drivers view.

The sun visor on the drivers side won't stay in place - it falls down and totally obstructs my view out of the front window. Toyota refuses to fix this so I now have it tied up with string so I can see out the window. I don't know how long this temporary fix will last! this is my first Toyota - I've always had Ford for many years (40+) and have never experienced this problem with any other car! Toyota received numerous complaints about this - especially with the 2007 thru 2011 Camry models. They sent us a "enhancement warranty" in 2012. Earlier this year, the sun visor began to slowly drop only about an inch. Living in Michigan with all the ice and snow and since the dealer is about 50 minutes away in good weather, I decided to bring my car in for this when my oil change was due, which was in May. When I called to make the appointment I was told that it's out of warranty and no longer covered by the enhanced warranty - that it expired in Jan 2015. I called the 800 # and they refused to cover it. This is a dangerous situation - which blocks the front window view - it is a clear safety hazard!! the sun visor on the drivers side of my car is completely dropped (won't stay up at all), while tons of others Toyota owners have same/similar problems - they have either dropped or drop suddenly when going over bumps, etc. - in others, they never know when this will happen and their view is obstructed! Toyota is aware of this problem but refuses to acknowledge that this should be a recall!! Toyota new motto should be "money is more important than lives" - or is this already their motto? please don't let Toyota get away this serious defect too!! shame on Toyota again!!

I purchased this 2007 car new in late 2006. After about 5 years, the dashboard began to get shiny and very sticky. It appeared to be melting. If you touch it, it is sticky and can easily be gouged. No amount of cleaning is able to resolve the shiny, sticky mess. During the day, the dashboard has so much glare that it is nearly impossible to see out the windshield (car has a grey interior with a light grey dash) without putting a towel or dark sweatshirt on the dash to cover the glare. I have never used any chemical product on the dash. No armor all or other products were ever used. I live in southern Georgia just North of the Florida border now. When I purchased the car, I lived in Massachusetts. I moved to Georgia in 2008 and the problem started in 2011-2012. This is an extreme safety hazard due to the glare during the day significantly limiting visibility. To date, Toyota denies the problem and refuses to assist in resolving what is an obvious manufacturing defect. I have seen hundreds of the same complaints on line and in various internet forums.

The dashboard has molten and become shiny. The windshield reflects light from the dashboard that may cause accident due to poor driver's vision.

Vehicle dash started melting and became reflective. This is hazardous situation. Now it is a stage when driving under sun becomes unbearable and reflection is so bad that it is very difficult to see. Dash is completely melted and being poor design. Dealer said it happens in 1 out of 10 cars.

- Missouri City, TX, USA

The dashboard is starting to melt and is causing glare on the front windshield while driving. Nothing remedies it and there is question as to whether or not the passenger air bag will deploy properly due to the increased elasticity of the dashboard.

- Columbus, GA, USA

The top of the entire dash is melting causing a very high gloss appearance which makes a glare on the inside of windshield making it difficult to drive at night especially with lights from oncoming traffic glaring of windshield. It also has some glare during the day as you can see the shiny dash reflecting off the inside of windshield. Some days worse than others depending on the temperature or amount the sun has been hitting the top of dash thus melting it more and making it more shiny.

- Richardson, TX, USA

Opened door on driver side, attempted to pull sunvisor down and it broke and would not stay up. Took to dealer and paid to get it fixed. Now two years later same problem with the same sun visor, broken will not stay up, dangling.

- Prattville, AL, USA

The dashboard is melting from the sun and it throws a glare upon the driver's front window and obstructs the driver's visibility.

Sun visor fails to retract and hangs into drivers field of vision. It appears the entire housing has busted out of the driver and passenger sun visors.

- Raleigh, NC, USA

My dashboard has practically melted. It shines and reflects onto the windshield while I'm driving, impairing my vision. Whenever I try to wipe it, whatever I'm using sticks to it and won't come off without tearing and leaving pieces on it. Not only is it an eyesore, but it makes it very difficult to drive.

The issue with my 2008 Toyota Camry, is the dash board is starting to melt. Thus making it hard to see while driving. I'm concerned with this because it can be a safety issue while on the road.

I own a Toyota Camry 2008 le (4 cyl. ). I had taken my car in for servicing several times (normal oil changes), the dealer noticed that the dashboard was getting shiny, disintegrating and falling apart. They took photos of it and told me they would replace it when Toyota granted them permission to do so. On June 19, 2014, I was called by a female from the dealer and told that they would replace the part ( allegedly the part costs $2200, and they would bear the costs of the part), but since I was not the original owner, but second owner, I would have to pay labor costs of $525. Obviously, I do not want to part with $525 for a faulty, cheap, badly engineered part which has safety issues and or design flaws, and replace it with another one of the same kind. If replacing the dashboard is a safety issue, it should not matter if you are the original owner or not. I thought that the standard to be used is whether the car is safe or not. Apparently Toyota has forgotten about making cars safe.

I bought my 2008 Toyota Camry in September 2012 and shortly after the dashboard started melting. It is now very sticky and continues to melt. Because of the melting, the windshield produces a glare and makes driving very difficult during the day. I cannot drive unless I am wearing polarized sunglasses, which helps minimize the glare. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle because of the constant glare on the windshield from the reflection of the melting dashboard. I am especially nervous when I have to drive my 10 month old niece around! nothing will clean the dashboard and it continues to melt becoming stickier which in turns causes every little particle of lint, dust, grime, etc to stick to the dashboard. I even use a sunshade daily to help keep my car cooler and I also park in the garage at home, but the dash still melts and is sticky. Absolutely disgusted with Toyota's quality!

I am submitting this complaint, because I have had several near collisions due to poor windshield visibility caused by melting dashboard on my 2008, Toyota Camry. I first notified Toyota corporate of the problem with the dashboard deteriorating in Sept of 2012 and was told it was not a warrantied item. The first near accident due to poor visibility(sticky residue on windshield) occurred in Oct, 201. I mentioned the melting dashboard problem and visibility to my dealer(ed morse Toyota, del ray, fl) at my next oil change and they quoted me a price of $1760.66 to repair, sometime around Oct 2012. The residue has become increasingly worse and due to my age(81) it is very difficult to clean off the windshield using standard household products. After watching a news report on wflx, West palm beach by [xxx] I called again(May 2, 2014) and was given a case number. To date I have never heard back from Toyota...I am anxious about driving the car due to this obvious defect. Do I have any recourse? information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The dashboard on the Camry is melting in the Texas sun. The car is parked inside our garage except for the early mornings. When it is hotter than 75 outside the dash becomes extremely soft and sticky. When it gets above 80 the dash starts to get shiny, real shiny to where it reflects on the inside of the windshield making it difficult to see. Additionally the off gassing from the dash causes a film on the windshield that has to be cleaned every weekend. I have searched online for repairs/remedies and have come across hundreds if not thousands of owners in hot climate zones with the same exact issue on their Camry and Lexus of the same production model years.
