Consumer Description

NOTICED PASSENGER DASH UPHOLSTERY, IN FRONT OF PASSENGER AIR BAG WAS BUCKLED,AND POPPING UP. TWO DIFFERENT FORD SERVICE MANAGERS ADVISED THAT THIS WAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND THAT THE AIR BAG MIGHT NOT DEPLOY PROPERLY DUE TO THE DASH PROTRUDING. THEY BOTH TOOK PHOTOS AND FORD REFUSED TO ADDRESS BECAUSE MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY, BY YEARS. I ONLY HAVE APPROX. 34,000 MILES. I FEEL THAT THIS IS ALSO A SAFETY DEFECT, IF MY AIR BAG OPERATION MIGHT BE AFFECTED. I WAS ADVISED THAT THE ENTIRE DASH NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND IT IS APPROX A $1,000 REPAIR. *TR
