3 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 03/13/2008

After doing my research there is a big problem with 1998-04 Chrysler 300m cars where on the left side of the passenger air bag located on the dash a crack forms and starts about 2-3 inches then grows up to 11-13 inches. This is a known issue through many many 300m owners and this sounds like a problem that needs to be addressed. I have a 04 300m that I purchased on 02-08 and seen this crack. With this crack dash problem on the same exact location where many other owners have seen this crack form right at the left side of the passenger air bag. I need to find out how will this problem be fixed?.

4 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 05/16/2004

2004 Chrysler 300m well maintained with 77105 miles dashboard has started to crack over the airbag. The cosmetic issue is serious for such a new car , but more important is the fear of a potential safety issue with the crack starting over the passenger airbag. If this progresses like others that I have seen on the internet this will become very serious very quickly. I haven't found any recalls on this problem. While I realize Chrysler is going through bankruptcy this problem must be acknowledged and a solution found.
