Consumer Description

I NOTICED THAT 2 DAYS AGO IT WAS RAINING INSIDE MY CAR I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW OFF OF THE LOT IN 2008. THE AREAS THAT ARE LEAKING/COLLECTING WATER ARE WHERE THE SIDE FRONT AIRBAG IS LOCATED, ALONG WITH THE WINDSHIELD, AND SIDE OF THE DOOR. CALLED THE DEALER THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT MY WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED THEREFORE I WILL NEED TO REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD AND OTHER COMPONENTS (ROOF, AIRBAGS,ETC.) THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OR ANYTHING AND NOW I AM ALMOST SCARED TO DRIVE IT SINCE THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT IT IS THE WINDSHIELD I AM PETRIFIED THAT IT WILL IMPLODE SOON. THIS SEEMS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS NOW I AM UNSURE THAT IF I GET IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THE WATER WHAT IF MY AIRBAG WON'T WORK UPON IMPACT? WHAT HAPPENS IF THE WINDSHIELD IMPLODES WHILE I AM DRIVING THIS ISSUE IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. *TR
