NHTSA complaint #10662157, filed 2014-12, 72,500 miles

“The dashboard has three severe long cracks that run into where the airbag would deploy and one that runs vertically straight up to the steering wheel.this is clearly a defect. The edges are very sharp. A piece has cracked and fell into the A/C vent. I am very concerned the dash could cut the airbag as it passes by the sharp edges or sharp edges could severely cut driver or passenger as airbag pushed broken dash into passenger or driver.this needs to be addressed.”
