Toyota Trucks: 4 Runner dash delaminating

We have a 98 4 Runner with the imitation wood dash accents throughout the
vehicle. Very nice touch when new.
This vehicle is garaged and only has 73K. All the once beautiful dash panels
are now turning grey and delaminating.
When all the panels finish self-destructing so will the vehicle's resale
value. Has this happened to anyone else and do I have any recource from
Toyota? This truck was 33K new. I am really pissed.

I have a 96 $runner with exactly the same problem,
in my case the trim is delaming, and looks yellow, its awful
in other spots the trim has just lifted off completely.
I have tried to glue parts of it back down, but in extreme cold the plastic
curls up and pulls away from the backing
this is especially bad around the 4 wheel drive selector.
having seen pictures of 4 runners with out the trim though I'm not sure what
is worse.
the plain black plastic beneath the trim looks really plain and cheap.
