“My dash panel is sticky cracking and in a state of deterioration . My concern is that in an air bag deployment parts of this cracked dash could impact my eyes like broken glass. This vehicle is garage kept and rarely used as it is at a vacation home. It does not sit in the sun or a parking lot. It is deteriorating on its own.”
NHTSA complaint #10543363, filed 2013-09, 15,400 miles“All of a sudden, the dashboard on my solar became sticky and started to crack in multiple spots. After doing a little research online, I learned that the solara and other Toyota models had issues with the dashboards. I learned that my issues was not isolated. Countless other Toyota owners were reporting the same issue online. Shortly after learning this, I took my solara to my local Toyota dealership for assistance and was told there is nothing we can do for you . …”
NHTSA complaint #10617793, filed 2014-07, 21,000 miles“I have a 2007 Toyota solara convertible that is in pristine condition. It is garaged and out the sun and is kept clean inside and out. A month after I purchased from a dealer the dash began cracking by the steering wheel, around the ignition and on the glove box trim. I took it to a interior trim specialist and said he has seen dozens of this model with the identical program. It begins as a small crack and then spreads like a spider web. It is a beautiful car that is not resellable with this problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10548432, filed 2013-10, 42,689 miles“The dash of my 2007 Toyota Camry Solara began to melt and crack in 2012, creating an extremely sticky surface as well as a severe glare on the windshield. This has continued to worsen over the last two years. The stickiness and glare worsen with high temperatures which is a critical issue when living in florida. Even when I travel to northern states in the winter, the stickiness and severe glare does not completely go away in freezing temperatures. I can gently touch my dash and leave a finger imprint at any time of the year and in any temperature. …”
NHTSA complaint #10661969, filed 2014-12, 35,000 miles“I noticed my dashboard was sticky and cracking and melting. I immediately went to the Toyota dealership in pompano beach. Pictures were taken by the dealership and submitted to Toyota demonstrating the defects. I received a letter from Toyota refusing to do anything to fix the problem. I contacted Toyota myself and spoke to several people in the company voicing my concerns and demanded someone investigate this problem as I have done my own investigation noting that every Toyota of my model and age have the same issues with the dashboard and interior melting and cracking. …”
