Consumer Description

IN MARCH OF LAST YEAR A CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD RUNNING PARALLEL TO THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG APPEARED AND EXTENDED FROM THE WINDSHIELD TO THE TO GLOVE COMPARTMENT. IN THE INTERVENING MONTHS, SEVERAL MORE CRACKS NEAR THE AIRBAG HAVE APPEARED AND THE SRS WARNING LIGHT IS ON WHENEVER THE IGNITION IS LIVE. GIVEN THE RECENT PUBLICITY REGARDING AIRBAGS, AND THE MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ FROM OTHER OWNERS OF 2004 ACURA TL'S, I AM INCREASINGLY CONCERNED THAT THIS DEFECT IS BOTH WIDESPREAD AND DANGEROUS. SINCE ACURA IS AWARE OF THE HAZARD THESE SIGNIFICANT FAILURES PRESENT, AND TO DATE HAS TAKEN NO ACTION TO CORRECT THEM, I BELIEVE THE NHTSA MUST ACT TO COMPEL ACURA TO RECALL AND REPAIR THE AFFECTED VEHICLES. *TR
