Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Cracked dash- driver's side, completely cracked and separated, from steering wheel side to windshield. The dash cracked in second place a few days ago, along side of the main crack. Very flimsy material and creates a noise when driving. The dash has started to lift and separate at the larger crack and this is causing a glare in the windshield when the sun is out while driving(very dangerous!). This is a safety hazard because of the glare and the potential of broken dash fragments that could cause injury or even a fatality if the airbags are deployed. …”
