Description of the problem | My dash is cracking. I take care of my dash, keep it clean, garaged, etc. All of a sudden there are two long cracks in the middle of the dash and right above the instrument cluster on the dash. I checked around and it appears i am not the only one that has had this problem. The car is only 5 years old, and is considered a "luxury sport car." the reasons i am concerned is because airbags are located underneath the dash, could they one day deploy while driving? Or not deploy at all when involved in an accident? Also, this really devalues the car, and the approximate cost of repair is around $1700. |
