Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 BUICK LESABRE CUSTOM IN WHICH THE DASHBOARD HAS COME LOOSE FROM THE WINDOW MOLDING AND HAS BUCKLED UP HALF WAY ACROSS THE DASHBOARD. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IF IT GOES ALL THE WAY ACROSS IT CAN CAUSE THE AIRBAG(S) TO DEPLOY POSSIBLY CAUSING INJURY. OTHER THAN THIS THE CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION PREVIOUSLY OWNED BY AN OLDER COUPLE WHO, ALMOST LITERALLY, DROVE IT TO CHURCH AND THE GROCERY STORE. I LOVE MY CAR BUT CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD.
