Complaint Summary
AIR BAGS
Owner Narrative
MY GREATEST FEAR IS THAT BECAUSE THE DASHBOARDS OF THESE VEHICLES ARE SO FRAGILE, IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS DURING AN ACCIDENT THE FRAGMENTS WOULD BE DEADLY. MY DASH IS ALREADY CRACKED AND TINY SHARDS BLOW THROUGH THE VENTS WHEN THE BLOWER IS ON. IT'S DANGEROUS AND THE DASHBOARD ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A LONG TIME WITH THESE VEHICLES. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.
