Description of the problem | The dash in my truck has been cracking and falling apart for some time now, some pieces break off and drop inside the dash area where the airbag and all kinds of wiring are, i'm concerned of possible wiring shorts and fires and also concerned about airbag deployment issues. I'm concerned of the potential personal injury that could occur as these plastic pieces are sharp and rigid and either drop inward in the dash or sometimes fall outside the dash onto the seats/floor depending on the size of a bump you might encounter in the road. |
