2008 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5S DASH PANEL/DASHBOARD IS MELTING. THE DASH PANEL SOFT-TOUCH COATING MATERIAL FIRST TURNED STICKY AND EVENTUALLY DISINTEGRATED INTO A VISCOUS SUBSTANCE. SURFACE FINISH TURNED FROM MATTE TO HIGH GLOSS. THE NOW REFLECTIVE DASH SURFACE CAUSES A LARGE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD AND OBSTRUCTS DRIVER'S VISIBILITY. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2008 ALTIMA COUPE IS MELTING AND CREATES AN EXTREMELY REFLECTIVE SURFACE THAT PREVENTS ME FROM BEING ABLE TO SEE THE ROAD, WHILE DRIVING IN SUNNY CONDITION. THE MELTING/STICKY STARTED WITH A SMALL SPOT ON THE DASH THEN THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE AND SPREAD OVER THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD. THE GLARE CAUSED BY THE MELTING DASHBOARD IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD AND IT IS GETTING WORSE. *TR
