Sierra 1500

I have a truck with less then 44000 miles and has developed a crack in the dash right above the passenger airbag. My concern will be what going to happen when my truck is involved in a wreck and the passenger air bag deploys. Pretty sad that all the money the federal government gave GM they couldn't build a vehicle that lasts.
