The dash board has a crack right next to the air bag also above the gauges. My worry is if the air bag goes off the plastic from the dash will pop up and put a hole in the air bag. Which will then deflate and no serve its purpose. Or that part of the dash board will break off from the impact of the air bag and will hurt someone in the vehicle. Please contact. Me for photos it is saying they are too large to upload.…

About couple months ago we notice about an 8 inch long crack on the dashboard above the cluster driver side. And i first thought it had to be sun damage. So pretty bum about it.

So now in hope there's a recall coming soon. And also…

I have two cracks in my dashboard. One is huge over the drivers side control cluster and the second, i believe, poses a big safety concern. The second crack is at the corner of the passenger airbag. I'm concerned that the airbag will not deploy with this defect and if it does the sharp edges/shards of the dash will either injure the passenger and/or others in the car, or rip the airbag making it useless. Airbags are…
