Hi Wendy,

Toyota knows there is a problem, but they don't want to do anything about it. We all should go to the media and complain, maybe they will listen!

Got a response from Toyota, They will not replace the dashboard because it is out of warranty. We might have to go to a consumer watch dog, anybody got connections here?

Just got my local Toyota Dealer to take a picture of the sticky dashboard this morning, they will respond once they get something from Toyota, hope for the best that they would replace it! Let you guys know what the response is.

Hi Deborah,

I think there are other people who have the same problem as us , we just have to band together and see if Toyota will fix up the issue. My smash repairer quoted me $650 for the dash plus $350 for the labor, $1000 in total . A lot of money to spend unless I just put up with it. I'll call up my Local Toyota dealer tomorrow and see if they would help me out. I just don't like the service manager there, they just want to rip me off, I'll see how it goes though, let you know.

Hi Deborah,

Have you heard anything from fair trading about your sticky dashboard, I have the same problem too, I have a 2007 Aurion Prodigy where the dashboard is so sticky, it looks like it is melting because of the heat, it basically affects the drivers side where the instrumentation panel is. It would cost me $700 to buy a new dash plus labor, but if Toyota will replace it, it would be good. Let me know so I will know my next step.
