The vinyl on the passenger side of the dash in my 2001 Chrysler 300m has cracked. The crack is about four inches long, and based on information from other 300m owners, is in the vicinity of the passenger-side air bag. There is concern that repair of this crack is unsafe due to its proximity to the air bag, and that the crack may affect deployment of the air bag.
Yesterday I noticed that a small crack near the passenger side airbag had appeared. I couldn't imagine why being that my car is not that old and I keep my car clean and the dashboard moisturized. I started doing research on the problem and have found that nothing can be done about the crack because my vehicle is out of warranty. And, I cannot repair the crack because it might compromise the airbag deployment! I have read that serveral other people have experienced the same problem. Is there anything that can be done?.
Dashboard cracked. Vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the mechanic determined that passenger side air bag caused the dashboard to crack. Dashboard along with the air bag were replaced.
