2010 Nissan Altima

My dash is melting and it is so shiny that the glare on the windshield makes it almost impossible to see on a sunny day. The dash is so sticky that you can’t even clean it. And it is admitting a foul odor which makes me sick makes my nose run and makes my eyes water. I don’t have another vehicle to drive but it’s getting to where I can’t drive this one

My dashboard has been melting since I purchased the vehicle last year. Dealership went out of business. It’s over $1,000 for dashboard to be replaced. I read the complaints on this website and y’all are WELL INFORMED of this issue and the safety concerns associated with it. Ditto for Nissan! A recall was issued for the previous two year models so why in the world should we have to pay for this repair out of pocket and how many complaints does it take to get y’all to do something????? I’m not sure what you’re here for if not to address issues consumers are having with their products. DO YOUR JOB AND MAKE NISSAN PAY FOR THEIR MISTAKES!!!!

My dash is melting. Besides being a mess as I am not able to clean it, it obstructs my vision when the sun hits it and glares back at the windshield. In Georgia there are many sunny days and if I am facing the sun, my view is really bad. I have contacted several Nissan dealers in the area and not one has a way to help me. I have read about consumers winning lawsuits in Texas and Florida, but the damage is the same here in Georgia.

I have three issues with this car. The dash has melted, so much so I could not see out the windshield if the sun was out. The glare on the dash was blinding. I called Nissan and spoke to agent 'shelly', ID #7312915, case # 32725497 in September 2018. I took it to one Nissan dealership and they said not a manufacturing defect, but gave me a quote of $3500 to repair. Took to another Nissan dealership and they gave me another quote for a repair using a dash from the junk yard for 1/2 the price. I gave up and finally purchased a dash cover in August 2019 for around $300 from carparts.com and installed it myself. Very much a driving/safety concern! The sunroof leaks if more than a sprinkle. The back floor board stand in 3" of water. I have to take it to the dealership to have the headliner ripped out to clean the waterline from sunroof to outside (rear wheel well). I have taken it in 2-3 times at a cost of ~$150 each time. I need to go back now, but have currently duct taped the sunroof shut. The VDC and slip light, brake light and tire pressure lights are on. Have had them reset. Last time they told me to disregard the brake light. Just ignore it.

concern: melting dashboard safety: visibility - the dashboard is very shiny and sticky, potential glare confirmation: Florida recalls have already been made against 2008 and 2009 Nissan vehicles, but nothing further. symptoms: no idea that the dashboard was melting; college student used vehicle corrective action taken: washing/cleaners do not improve or correct the issue. Also, the replacement cost and/or labor required to fix the issue is extremely limited for consumers to take on personally.

THE MATERIAL THE DASH IS MADE FROM GETS EXTREMELY HOT AND MELTS, AND THE UPPER DASH HAS A GLARE THAT SHINES AND COMES OFF THE DASH INTO THE WINDSHIELD AREA & CAUSES A MAJOR DISTRACTION FROM THE GLARE. MY 20-YR OLD DRIVES THIS CAR AND HAS ALMOST CRASHED DUE TO THE GLARE. THE DASH NEEDS REPLACED. I TRIED A PHOTO, BUT DOES NOT SHOW THE GLARE.

VEHICLE WAS GARAGED FOR FIRST FOUR YEARS IN NEW YORK. NOW IN FLORIDA FOR 6 YRS. AND DASHBOARD IS MELTING MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE ON SUNNY DAYS. I FEAR HAVING AN ACCIDENT AS THE GLARE FROM THE MELTED DASHBOARD IS OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW. ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT BREATHING THESE CHEMICALS.*DT CONSUMER STATED SHE DID NOT HERE ANYTHING REGARDING THE COMPLAINT.*JB

IN THE LAST YEAR OR TWO I NOTICED MY DASH START CHANGING. ITS STARTED HAVING SPOTS BTHAT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS MELTING. I THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING SIMPLE THAT COULD BE CLEANED. I WAS WRONG, IT JUST KEPT GETTING WORSE. THE DASH IS GOOEY AND STICKY AND NOW HAS SUCH A SHINE ON IT THAT REFLECTS ONTO THE WINDSHIELD THAT I HAVE ALMOST HAD SEVERAL ACCIDENTS AND COME NEAR HITTING PEDESTRIANS BECAUSE YOU JUST CANT SEE FROM THE GLARE IT CREATES,
