Description of the problem | I own an acura tl 3. 2 2005 with 51,700 miles. This morning my dashboard cracked in 5 different places for no reason. There was no collision or vandalism involved. I am concerned for my safety as i do not know the consequences of the airbag deploying and the dashboard cracking and debris causing injury. Called acura corporate and they claim is not a manufacturing defect (this issue has been reported by hundreds of people in various internet sites such as facebook) acura prides themselves on car safety but at the same time they will not take responsibility on this issue. |
