Consumer Description

2 LARGE CRACKS IN DASHBOARD DIRECTLY OVER PASSENGER AIRBAG. CAR IS 6 YEARS OLD AND GARAGE KEPT. HAS ONLY 46,000 MILES. ACURA BUILDS AIRBAG INTO THE DASH AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHERE THE CRACKS ARE FORMING. AIRBAG LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF. WORRIED THAT AIRBAG CAN NOT POSSIBLY FUNCTION AS INTENDED WITH THESE CRACKS. DANGEROUS AND BASED ON THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINS ACURA KNOWS ABOUT IT AND WON'T DO ANYTHING. AT THE VERY LEAST THEY ARE USING POOR QUALITY MATERIALS IN THEIR "LUXURY" CARS. *TR
