NHTSA Complaint #10353807 — 2006 HYUNDAI SONATA

I OWN A 2006 HYUNDAI SONATA WHICH I BOUGHT NEW. IN 2007 I FOUND A CRACK IN THE FRONT PASSENGER DASH WHERE THE CUTOUT FOR THE AIRBAG WAS LOCATED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IN SIERRA VISTA, AZ AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MANY OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE PERFORATION IN THE DASH CAUSING THE AIRBAG TO EVENTUALLY COME OUT OF THE DASH. IT WAS REPLACED. THREE YEARS LATER IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN THE AIRBAG PERFORATION IS BASICALLY CRACKING CAUSING THE EXPOSURE OF THE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT IN THE DASH OF THE SAME VEHICLE I PREVIOUSLY HAD REPLACED. THIS SEEMS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE THAT IS COMMON IN THIS VEHICLE. THANK YOU, *TR
