the dashboard has been melting away for a couple of years I purchased this car for my wife so I really don't drive it too often. A couple of years ago I noticed how sticky and shiny the dash had become and how freakin impossible it was to clean. Knowing that the car was out of warranty I contacted Subaru USA on multiple occasions and I was told they really never heard of anything like this, which is BS. After sending them pics I got a call back letting me know that they would give me a $500 reimbursement towards an new dash. When I called the dealership I got a quote for the dash, which the reimbursement would have covered, but they would not cover the $1300 labor. To say I was pissed off would be an understatement. The dealership went as far as accusing my wife of attempting to clean the dash with something that cased this. WTF! I waited a year and called back, as I don't have an extra $1300 for an install on something that is clearly a manufactures defect. When I called back I had assumed that others had complained and there might be a recall. No Luck. I have been reluctant to trade the car in because I am sure this will depreciate my vehicles worth. It's horrible to drive and quite frankly is dangerous.
