2002 Dodge Stratus Coupe Air bags Problems

“I have 2 large cracks in my dash, my car is well taken care of and does not sit in direct sunlight, one crack appeared over a year ago, I was driving and all of a sudden a loud cracking noise, now again the same thing only the newest crack is much larger and still getting bigger I also hear other cracking noise while driving so I imagine it is just matter of time before I have more cracks. I am concerned that this may cause safety issues. Dealer says nothing is covered to fix this problem.”
