Official summary

Warranty Policy Bulletin POL14-11: REVISED December 10, 2014: Toyota has received reports where some vehicles may exhibit cracked and/or sticky/melting dashboards as a result of heat or humidity. NOTE: The same voluntary Warranty Enhancement Program coverage described herein is also applicable to certain 2006-2008 MY IS 250/350 and certain 2007 MY LS 460 vehicles for cracked and/or sticky/melting front and rear interior door panels as a result of heat or humidity.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
