NHTSA Complaint #10356999 — 2004 ACURA TL

ACURA TL 2004 CRACKED DASHBOARD OVER AIR BAG AND MULTIPLE OTHER SPOTS. I AM VERY CONCERNED THIS COULD CAUSE ISSUES WITH THE AIRBAG. I WAS INFORMED BY A DASH BOARD REPAIR MAN THAT HE COULD NOT FIXES THE CRACKS OVER THE AIR BAG. HE STATE IT WOULD NOT BE SAFE FOR HIM OR IF THE AIR BAG DEPLOYED. ACURA SHOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE DASH BOARD ON THE 04 ACURA TL'S. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH AND THERE ARE A WHOLE LOT OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. THERE IS EVEN A FACEBOOK SITE WHERE PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM HAVE SIGNED UP. I CALL ACURA ABOUT THIS DEFECT AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NOT THERE PROBLEM OR FAULT. I COULD PAY TO GET IF FIXED FOR OVER $2,000.00. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THERE IS NO PROOF THAT IT COULD CAUSE THE AIR BAG TO DEPLOY. *TR
