Toyoto confirmed knowledge of problem with inferior dashboard of Lexus es350 2007. A recall which they are telling me now, they will no longer honor had been in effect: "January 21, 2015 -€" After years of complaints and recent lawsuits, Toyota has agreed to replace about 3.5 million dashboards that get sticky, cracked, shiny and melt in heat and humidity. Calling it a "Customer Support Program" - ZE6 - Toyota will extend dashboard warranty coverage on the following Toyota and Lexus vehicles." The PHOTO of my dashboard below, shows the cracks and chipping that has occurred over the years. If the air bag deploys fragments will be disbursed throughout my vehicle. I have two grandchildren that I drive to school each day and this is a very bad situation about to happen. I contacted the customer service numerous times and simply flat out said that they will not own responsibility.

Sticky dashboard cannot be repaired due to manufacturer defect

- Mobile, AL, USA

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.

Takata inflators recall

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

We have complained about our air bag on the driver side for years before the recall. We have yet to get this corrected even after service claim to have repaired or replace airbag. I am asking for help on this situation it has been to long dealing with. Now dealership asking me to pay additional monies and they are not sure what the problem is? we have not had any accident just airbag lights stays on.

- St. Louis, MO, USA

I have a family of five and have not been able to use my vehicle to take my whole family anywhere for almost a year now. Any time I have a passenger I have to ask that they sit in the back seat. The dealership was supposed to contact me to determine airbag replacement date and provide a loaner car if they could not replace the airbag in a timely manner. I have not been able to get through to the dealership and have not received a return call. I feel I have been patient but this has become a burden on me and my family and I would like the airbag to be fixed as soon as possible so I can use my vehicle as a family car as intended.

Takata recall

- Mesquite, TX, USA

Takata recall. We called Lexus of fife in November of 2017 when we received notification the airbag replacements were available. As of this date of January 21st 2018 we have not had a fix. When we called the first of the year we were told we we #51 on the list. We called again mid month and were told the same thing #51. There seems to be no sense of urgency to solve this issue. We are scheduled to drive to southern California for a wedding in mid February 2018 and I would like this issue resolved before we drive that far. If this is a deadly issue shouldn't it be a priority to solve it. While I understand Lexus of fife can't do free work all day there should be another option to fix this problem asap.
