That's why Toyota should be doing a recall on all the 120's and replacing the dash pads due to a safety issue of the dash pad cracking over the passengers airbag. Pricks no it's a problem from manufacturing and should just recall them instead of people having to fight them. I'd sue their arse if mine cracks and fragments from the dash pad end up in my wife's face or daughters face and does damage to them. There's enough proof all over the web of this being a major issue of crackingFace lift 150 Prado V6 auto. No mods yet

Seriously!! The US branch are doing something about dashes on multiple models, why can't the Australian branch do the same?!?

Yeah I have now got a hairline crack all the way from the passenger airbag to the radio mount and all across the dash above the speedo.
Only started about 2 months ago, but it moves fast!
Also considering a temporary fix. Can't say if it is heat or direct sunlight or just age.
Mines a 2007 and a daily drive. Sure she gets parked up in the sun while i get the train to work etc, but i have a sun shade inside it all day, every day...
Bloody irritating!

Yeap I found a small crack the other day and im sure it was from the heat as it got yo 41 deg when I was away camping I noticed it the morning after. It's cracked just above the glove box started from the heater control and is about 10cm long im going to try and fix it some how. Not good for the price we pay for these cars04 grande, bilstein A712 &A713 kings spring , 3 inch exhaust chip it chip, XGT lightforce, 1 x lightbar, Sov Bar, Tigerz11 Grande winch with rope, Oricom UHF.

I'm told by the service manager at my local Toyota dealer that Toyota are currently reviewing the CSE on the deteriorating dashboards, having replaced some over the 7 year limit on a pro-rata basis there *may* be a possibility that vehicles older than 7 years *may* get full warranty on P&L. Nothing in writing obviously and we'll have to wait and see. I didn't get the usual denials of a problem and talked at length with the guy regarding the amount of failures appearing on the net and the recall in the US of the melting dashes. Then again could also be BS from this guy too.
Get yours to a dealer for inspection if you haven't already and lodge your details and VIN.
