Default Black Lint From Glove Box

Does anyone have a problem with tons of lint from the liner in the glove box?

I notice that I whenever I pull stuff out it is covered in short black fibers from the lining of the glove box.

I don't have this problem with my 2013, but I did in my former BMW glove box. BMW told me that's just the way it was, so I brought it home and took my vacuum to it, which pulled a bunch of the stuff out and at least reduced my ongoing problem.

My suggestion is, assuming what you have stored in the glove box (sharp?) isn't rubbing the black coating off, I'd report it next time you take the truck in for service. Lexus may well take care of you, especially if it's a problem with say the removable tray they could more easily replace...

BTW as a side note, your userid is clever... "An RX in the Hawaii Area Code". Makes me smile every time you post, since I lived on Oahu for a number of years.
