3 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2015

My passage side air bag leather is splitting! I've gone to the dealership where I bought the vehicle, I was told they don't fix it or don't know anyone that will. If they would fix it, the car dealership would be responsible if it did not open! I've asked around no one knows anyone that can repair it. . . Never had an accident in the car.
