problem #3

Nov 012004

300M 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 39,000 miles
10 inch crack in dashboard above the passenger's side airbag. It also has started to crack the wood grain, pretty soon it will be from windshield to glove box. A 2001 car that' has been garaged and well taken care off, and they were saying it was sun damaged. After doing my own investigation on the internet, I found out that there were a lot of people who also had the same problem, and everyone was helpless as to what to do! I am worried that the airbag may not deploy properly in an accident. Why won''t daimler/chrsyler do something. Was it because they could not afford it.
