Consumer Description

THE DASH STARTED TO CRACK IN THIS TIME FRAME AND CONTINUES TO CRACK INTO PIECES WHICH MAY FALL INTO THE HOUSING. THESE PIECES ARE SHARP AND IN AN ACCIDENT COULD EASILY BREAK AWAY AND CAUSE BODILY HARM. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE DASH AND ALSO THE BLACK COVER IN THIS VEHICLE SPANNING A NUMBER OF YEARS. THE PLASTIC IS OBVIOUSLY SUB STANDARD AND DEFECTIVE. IT IS NOT ONLY A COSMETIC ISSUE BUT A SAFETY ISSUE IN THAT FURTHER DAMAGE COULD OCCUR FROM FURTHER DETERIORATION OF THE DEFECTIVE MATERIALS. *TR
