1 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 07/15/2019

Dashboard cracks: potential danger of airbag failure over the last few years, my car has developed several cracks in the dashboard. Of particular concern is a large crack which just recently appeared along the left side of the front passenger airbag unit. (see photos) I am very concerned that the cracks can allow moisture or condensation to enter the airbag unit, possibly causing it fail, deploy prematurely, or not properly deploy in a crash situation. Although the dashboard cracks are seemingly cosmetic, its potential to create a severe safety issue is of great concern. Especially in light of the takata recall for airbags, I hope that the manufacturer can help repair or replace these faulty dashboards with a quality material that will not degrade in such a manner.
