| Description of the problem | As i was wiping down my dashboard i noticed a fine hairline crack about an inch long. Within a week it grew another 2 inches. Now approximately two months since i noticed the first crack i have another crack in a different spot. This crack is about an inch and a half long. Both are in the area of the air back. My car is in perfect condition as i have always done the recommended maintenance and i keep my car parked in a garage at home and at work. I am extremely disappointed that my top of the line avalon is turning to crap! |
