Lexus es 350 2007 dashboard is melting and compromised. due to the sticky mess the airbags will not deploy properly and death will likely occur. very concerned about the toxicity of the dashboard as well. it's melting, changing color from black to white and cracking. this carcinogenic material is now poisoning all who ride in the vehicle. included photo does not convey the glossy melting ,sticky reality of it all. the glossy melting reflection causes lots of glare and impairs visibility on sunny days. this issue must be resolved before a life is taken needlessly. lexus refuses to replace the dashboard even though they admit that its a compromised part and have deceptively allocated this safety issue as a warranty problem that has expired. because my vehicle is seldom driven and garaged (69,717k miles) problem did not surface until now.
The dasboard is melting severely which causes a bright glare day and night, causing visibility and safety concerns. there is also a very obnoxious smell to it. i bought this car used and didn't notice the issue at the time. lexus should just own up to it and replace the dash no matter how old the car is since it is a safety hazard to me and others on the road. i personally try not to drive during the daytime when its the worst but thats not always feasible.
I have a curved mirror on the passenger side of the auto. the mirror is distorted. the objects in the mirror are closer than they appear. it is dangerous and misleading. it causes backing up and lane change accidents i just received a new patent that uses a flat mirror on both sides of the vehicle. it is called the "see more switch" it is an " automotive side mirror control system" with no blind spots (perfect view) this system is automatic in drive and reverse. it is available for sale or lease
Dashboard melt when the temperature reach 80 degree which is most days of the year in florida, couple of month ago the melting dashboard is causing a severe glare that make visibility difficult, as a result it is a hazard to drive this car every day or for more than one hour at the time or the temperature is 80 degree or higher. lexus refused to remedy the defect in the past and now that many people are complaining lexus is saying the do not have enough parts to replace all the melting dashboard. meanwhile i can be killed in a car accident and lexus could care less. i have three young children, safety and visibility are essential to drive my car. i no longer feel safe in my lexus es350 2007 and i lost my trust in the brand name. i need your help in remedy my hazard/safety issue caused intestinally by lexus knowing florida has a higher temperature than most other states. *tr

While driving down the road at varying speeds i have noticed that the outside mirrors on my car change position without any input on the switch. during the week or so prior to the first time that this occurred, i had noticed that when returning to the car after leaving it parked overnight that the mirrors, selecting the memory switch would return the seat and mirrors to their preset position. however this has now progressed to where the mirrors will change position while the vehicle is in motion. the driver's mirror will not change position dramatically, however the passenger side mirror will frequently tilt up to nearly the full extent of its' travel and without any warning or input from the driver. this has led to several occasions where a quick glance, especially at night, did not show an obstruction on the passenger side of the car and nearly led to an accident. pressing the memory recall button numerous times will eventually bring the mirror back to the set memory position. this is a safety hazard and i would like my vehicle to be repaired. *tr
