| Description of the problem | This concerns me as a safety issue. The dash on my sienna 2004 has cracks everywhere. In summer 2008 is when i saw the first crack. Four years later they are all over the front dash, in the driver side as well as in the passenger side. I have seen through the web that this is a common problem for this same make and model, so i decided to file this complaint. It concerns me that this cracks can potentially prevent airbags from deploying properly or prematurely and cause injure. I did ask toyota for a quote to fix this problem since my warranty expired and it was too costly $2000.+. I do like my car and would like to keep it as long as i can but besides the dash looking awful it make me nervous that this might cause an accident. Hope toyota finds a way to fix this. Thanks |
