I was at don mackey Cadillac showing the service adviser a problem under the hood when I noticed that the firewall had a hole in it. In the presence of the advised I pointed out the opening and when I touched the firewall a piece of the pl astic broke off in my hand. I asked the service adviser if this was typical and he stated that it was not. He also stated that to replace the part would be prohibitively expensive. I feel that this is a safety hazard. The firewall is supposed to protect the passenger compartment in the event of a fire or accident.
