What owners wrote

The dashboard of my 2009 mazda 6 is melting. It has become extremely sticky and shiny. The condition causes a glare on the windshield that can interfere with visibility. In addition, the dashboard deterioration is causing an oily film to build up on the entire inside of the windshield. The film has to be cleaned off frequently and is very difficult to completely remove. Ordinary window cleaners just smear it. The film interferes with the driver's ability to see in afternoon sun.

Hello, I purchased my a mazda from a mazda dealer in my area. At the time of my car purchase in 2017, they chose not to fix the dashboard recall before selling me the car. Now during summer 2020 my dashboard has shown to become sticky on the passenger side. It is now starting to obstruct my view with a glare, making it harder for me to see out of my windshield. I called the dealership and they are saying the recall is closed and they can't help me. I even called the mazda customer support and they shut me down.
