pj8708 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Hi Debbie and welcome to the LOC. First, congratulations on having the most unusual problem I've ran across. LOL But seriously, can you please come back with a more specific and detailed explanation regarding the problem of the melting dash. A photo or two would be very helpful. You can also go to Lexus.com. From their home page you can navigate to other departments which may be able to provide some help. Other members will log on today and offer their help. I am VERY interested in figuring this program. Paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990LS400 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 This is extremely common problem. Google something like "Lexus melting dash recall" and you will get lots of hits such as http://www.wptv.com/money/consumer/toyota-and-lexus-to-fix-45-million-cars-if-dashboard-is-melting-some-drivers-waiting-for-letter Make sure that you are the owner of record if you are not the original owner.

LEX-SV Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 2005 IS300, that model year might be a concern. I think the warranty enhancement for this problem covers 2nd gen Lexus IS's starting with model year 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pj8708 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Hey Steve and Jim, Once again I get to show my ignorance. Can you explain what a melting dash looks like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VBdenny Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Melting dash? huh? I went to Hawaii and walked around and didn't see any melting action. I've seen shrinkage, fading, cracking and outright deterioration but never melting. I'd love to see a picture. Instagram me with one. vbdenny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990LS400 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 There are plenty of photos of this problem - especially on the IS300 and ISX50 - that can be found by searching for phrases like "Lexus melting dashboard": https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=Lexus+melting+dashboard The dashboard becomes very sticky to the touch and literally oozes fluid. I'm a little surprised that Toyota has finally admitted that the problem exists and is going to supposedly fix dashboards back to the 2006 model year ISX50. Whether they fix the dashboards on the earlier IS300 is another matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
