Sticky Dash and peeling paint for tainted paint color 040/ that of which my car was painted with 040 Super White - I have documentation proving the pain code at time of purchase. Toyota over the telephone says it goes by the VIN number - but Toyota-??s website states completely the total opposite - it states any vehicle painted with paint color 040 from 2008 -2017 model is eligible for a paint re- do?

My 2010 Camry has become incredibly unsafe to drive or be in due to the dashboard melting. There is an unbelievably unsafe glare caused by the dashboard reflecting sunlight and the more the dash melts the more intense the glare becomes. There is also a smell that renders the vehicle almost worthless on hot days and causes headaches. This is on top of not being able to clean the dashboard because you cannot touch it with anything. All bugs and any dust that land on the dashboard live there permanently. You cannot wipe it with anything. Your finger prints stay on the dash with the lightest touch and often it becomes so hot you cannot touch it without potentially burning yourself. The dash melting is a safety hazard to everyone on the roadways. There are likely millions of cars with this defective dashboard that have not been repaired. I have contacted Toyota several times, including executives and high ranking corporate employees, and they say that they will not replace or help with this defective and unsafe cheap component that they used in order to increase their margins. The problem has been acknowledged by Toyota but they failed to contact an incredibly high number of owners that are affected. I first noticed the glare in 2014 and it has gotten progressively worse. I took the vehicle to a toyota dealership twice (2016/2023) and they refused to fix the defective dash both times. They expect owners to pay $3,500-$5,000 for a dashboard repair on a vehicle that has 100k+ mile life left yet is only worth around $5,000. They are essentially totaling cars that owners have worked hard to maintain and get the most out of. Toyota is stealing 10+ years of vehicle life from many consumers and placing the burden of their profit margins increasing onto consumers that buy toyotas because of their longevity and reliability.

Dashboard is becoming severely reflective to the point where I can't drive it safely. It's gotten stickier and more reflective over time. Dealer refuses to accept it's a defect and is charging me two grand just for the part (labor is more.) reflectiveness is much worse than what the attached picture shows.

Dashboard is melting causing severe glare on the windshield which is obscuring my vision and creating a hazardous driving condition to vehicles and pedestrians. I noticed this during test drive of the car. Its worse and the dealer will not replace the part since warranty extension expired 6/3/2019. A full safety recall needs to be implemented.

The dashboard is shinny, melty and very reflective. It's becoming a hazard to drive the car as the dashboard is reflected on the window. Toyota's dashboards should not melt because of time.

Dashboard became sticky and has started to peel off.

I was driving on highway ( houston tx), suddenly I heard a sound like a explosion at my car ceiling. I panicked and almost lost control of my car, luckily there weren't any car near me ( front back, right or left). Found out my sunroof exploded. The reason I am confident that there wasn't any piece that flew off and hit my car is because I didn't had any car near me nor I was driving in any side lanes. I was in middle lane. I believe it is a safety issue if a sunroof exploded like that without being hit with anything.

Dash board is sticky and melting. Called Toyota because found warranty information and they said their warranty expired in May 2017. In may, my dashboard was fine. Today's date is August 22, 2017. Does Toyota know exactly how long the dashboard lasts and terminate their warranty a month prior. Car is not drivable due to shiny reflection of sun.

This car has required 6 sets of tires in less than 90,0000 miles. The driver's side window will roll down when pressing the button to roll it up. This has been going on since the first oil change. The air conditioner occasionally switches itself from recycled to fresh air while driving for unknown reasons. Sensor in passenger seat malfunctions causing random alarm about seatbelt when no one is seated there. The dashboard became sticky to the touch, and cloth would stick to it when attempting to wipe it clean. The dashboard then developed several deep cracks, running erratically ly from front to back. In places around trim pieces, dashboard plastic has flaked away. Plastic on the top of the console's lid has chipped and flaked away, and cracks have developed around it. Paint on trim of console has bubbled up and ruined the finish in console drink holder lid. The cd player malfunctioned, with a disc read error reported, though no disc was inside the player, requiring replacement of system. The aux audio port failed after only a year of regular use. The floor mats had to be removed due to the acceleration recall and the service department at dealership wanted to provide recall service limited to securing these with a zip tie. Carpeting became stained and filthy, and could not be effectively cleaned, so carpeting had to be replaced by owner. Recall notices received from Toyota by the owner have been expressly limited to weight capacity rating sticker, although this was Toyota financed vehicle and owner's address remains unchanged. Otherwise, all recall notices received by registered owner, have been limited to those reported by NHTSA following owner's registration at website. Local dealership has routinely been uncooperative, dismissive, or contentious when warranty service requests were made. Dealership offers only reasons to deny warranty repairs or replacements.

The contact owns a 2010 Toyota Camry. While driving at approximately 60 mph, there was an abnormal noise coming from the front passenger side tire and the steering wheel vibrated. The failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the tires needed to be balanced. As a result, the transmission and the front wheel bearing was replaced. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 114,000.

On or about the above date of April 15, 2015 I washed my 2010 Toyota Camry at a local car wash using their automated high pressure wash and wax. A few days afterward I realized the center trunk area, that holds the spare tire, held 2 to 3 inches of water, and the right side of the trunk also had water. I have read post after post online stating many other Toyota owners had the same problem, and some have stated the rear window and body panels were not securely sealed from the outside elements when the vehicle was assembled at the factory. In June of 2014 water was getting inside on the carpet on the driver and passenger side soaking the carpet completely. The air conditioner condensation drainage tube had plugged up underneath the vehicle that caused the interior by the driver and passenger side to be soaked in water. There is no evidence whatsoever that this vehicle was ever involved in an accident. The odometer just recently turned over 45,145 miles. Now, there is already an indication of mold, and mold can be deadly.

The dashboard of my 2010 Camry is melting, is so sticky.

- Houston, TX, USA

The vehicle was stopped at an intersection attempting to make a left hand turn. The car was hit in the side front from the tires forward so the fluids and bumper were destroyed. Driver did hit the dashboard and no airbags deployed from the side curtain airbags or the front airbags. No airbags were ever deployed to protect the driver. When this car was purchased it was because of the safety of the airbags...which were no help in this accident.
