I was hoping something like this was started. I was just about to replace my whole upper dashboard cuz i hate the look of it
|
Sticky dash
Mines getting sticky like my bmw. So you're telling me that I can go in and inquire about the "faulty" dash and they'll replace it for free? Is there a recall out yet?
|
there was a TSB issued by lexus in december of 2011 but it only applied to 06-08 models under lexus comprehensive warranty (4-5 years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first.) i know you there is also nhtsa.dot.gov where you can file a complaint. make sure you state that the shiny/sticky dash causes a safety issue with glare on the windshield while driving and a degraded dash can result in possible degradation to the passenger front air bag. or something along those lines.

For those with 06' - 08' hopefully they will replace it for free. From the articles I've read, its really a safety hazard and it could be very dangerous because the cracks from the dash could potentially set off the airbags prematurely. I wouldn't want the air bags to knock me out while I'm driving in the middle of the freeway. |
Just filed mine lets see what happens....
|
Seems like everyone that's having this issue, I look at their location and all are from
Florida! :p |
Interesting. For those who have had it changed, what do they change it to? Same style, just different material? and if so, what type of material?

Airbags are set off by impact sensors.. not cracks in the dash. :)
http://www.wptv.com/money/consumer/t...ay-for-repairs "Because this dashboard has the airbag inside on the passenger side I wouldn't feel safe in a car that had a cracked dash," explained Stewart. "Anything that would make an airbag go off too soon or go off too late would be very serious." |
Dropped it off to the dealer and inquired about replacement. Also brought up the recall regarding this back in 2011. She said she will speak with the manager and give me a call back. The glare is extremely noticeable. Put in my complaint as well through link provided on previous post. This was done at Park Place in Plano, TX.
