Touareg

The dashboard on the passenger side of the vehicle is cracking all the way around the air bag container. I fear safety and I am afraid that the air bag will pop out through the cracks and cause an injury or not be functional if needed. The cracks have been spreading slowly over time regardless if the vehicle is in motion. Currently the cracks are closing in to the full line around the air bag container. I wonder what will happen when the crack line is complete. Will the airbag pop out on its own and cause an injury? I was told that the air bag pressure is causing the cracks.

The dash on the passenger side of the vehicle is cracking all the way around the airbag container. I fear that the airbag will be able to come lose and possibly cause injury or become non functional and thus unsafe when in need
