  DASHBOARD IS CRACKED. AN ENTIRE PIECE CRACKED OFF JUST OVER THE STEERING WHEEL AND IT CRACKED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE NEAR THE AIR BAG. I AM NOT CERTAIN EXACTLY WHEN IT CRACKED.

  CRACKED DASH, I BELIEVE IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. IF I WERE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT I FEEL IT WOULD CAUSE SHRAPNEL TO BE FLY EVERYWHERE. VERY SHARP PLASTIC WOULD FLY AS ANY PASSENGER ESPECIALLY IF THE FAULTY AIR BAGS WENT OFF.

  DRIVING BACK FROM A LOCAL SKI AREA TO HOME, THE DASH CRACKED RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY EYES.

IT GOES RIGHT INTO THE PASSENGER AIRBAG STORAGE WHICH MAKES ME WONDER IF THE DASH WILL EXPLODE IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS OR IT COULD POP THE AIRBAG BEFORE OR DURING IT'S USE.
