Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The dashboard is falling apart and should a crash happen chunks of plastic could go flying through the interior. The upper dashboard right below the windshield cracks and falls apart. When moving or going over a bump it makes noise rattling around. Tried to go to the dealership but it's not covered as the vehicle is just out of warranty.”
NHTSA complaint #11182139, filed 2019-02, 97,000 miles“The dashboard is cracking and can be potentially dangerous if the airbag deploys. If the airbag deploys the cracked dash could become multiple projectile missles.”
