Consumer Description

THE DASHBOARD HAS SEPARATED FROM THE BASE AT THE WINDSHIELD IN FRONT OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND HAS POPPED UP. IT WAS ABOUT AN INCH LONG AND UP IN DECEMBER BUT HAS PROGRESSED TO NOW HALF-WAY ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD AND IS STICKING UP ABOUT 4 INCHES. I HAVE READ OTHERS WITH THIS PROBLEM HAVING A CONCERN ABOUT IT CREATING A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAGS. THE EXPENSE OF REPAIR HAS BEEN QUOTED AT ABOUT $1,200 PARTS AND LABOR. THAT IS TOO EXPENSIVE. WE ARE LOOKING AT OTHER OPTIONS. POSSIBLY TRADE. *TR
