Recently reported STRUCTURE problems on 2006 Lexus RX 330

In april 2014, my mom was contacted by lexus about the melting dashboard issue that has plagued almost 5 million lexus vehicles. she was told she would have to "wait in line" for her customer number to pop up in the system in order to fix the melting dashboard, which has affected her visibility when it is sunny outside as well as her steering mechanism. we do not know if there is damage to the airbags, but with a continuously melting dashboard we can only imagine the damage and danger that lurks underneath. the steering has gotten progressively more difficult as the dash cracks and melts more. there are multiple cracks throughout the dash that have gotten progressively worse and interfere with the integrity of the inside of the car. soon, the parts attached to the dash may disassemble while she is driving, which can potentially kill other passengers on the road and herself. we reached out to lexus corporate and in march 2016, after multiple attempts to go through the local dealer both here and in north florida, lexus refuses to fix her dashboard and continues to ignore our pleas and demands for attention to this matter. please refer to attached photos. *tr

I'm complaining about my dashboard. it's all cracked and i'm afraid the cracks are going to reach the airbag and it's going to pop out. i never seem so many cracks on such a luxury and expensive car. i used to have a ford explorer for 11 yrs and this never happen to it. i know so many people with lexus and toyotas the have this same problems. i think the company should fix it. very frustrated or fix it for cheap. i would of thought these company would use better materials. thank you concern driver *tr

Cracked dashboard getting worse over airbag compartment

While driving at highway speed the left rear quarter window molding came flying off my lexus 2006 rx-330. made a flapping noise previous to coming off. checked on the web @ clublexus .com and found this to be a problem with a lot of other rx owners. if you are in warranty, no problem, but out of warranty like i am. problem is that lexus does not sell just the molding, you have to buy the entire window. the molding is on double stick tape onto the window rubber seal. lexus p/n 62730-48230. *tr

My dashboard on my 2006 lexus rx 330 is literally peeling off, it is cracked everywhere and in some spots the dashboard coating/cover is just not there,it has crumbled and fell off. *tr
