Default Instrument cluster blemish




My ES 350 F-Sport instrument cluster shows some blemish at the 12 and 6 o’clock position under direct sunlight. Anyone else have this problem? Should I have the whole cluster replaced under warranty?

If it bothers you and they're willing to replace it, why not?

Looks like a manufacturing defect to me. I'd take it in...

I tried looking closely at mine but tough to see - maybe with a flashlight. In any event, do you really want them taking apart the dash on a brand new car because of that? If so, take it in.

The cluster comes out easy, whole dash doesnt have to be taken apart. Almost looks like a fingerprint or something doesnt it?

If it bugs you, Im sure theyll replace it.
