Consumer Description

I AM THE 2ND OWNER OF A 2004 ACURA TL THAT I PURCHASED IN OCTOBER OF 2007. IT HAS BEEN A GREAT VEHICLE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A RECENT DEFECT ISSUE. THE DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED MULTIPLE TIMES DIRECTLY OVER THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AS WELL AS OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. IT APPEARS THIS IS A COMMON DEFECT REPORTED BY SEVERAL OTHER OWNERS OF THIS YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL OF VEHICLE. I'M AFRAID THE CRACKS MAY CAUSE INADVERTENT AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT WHICH WOULD BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO MYSELF OR ANY OTHER OCCUPANT THAT MAY BE IN MY CAR. I STRONGLY BELIEVE ACURA NEEDS TO STEP UP AND HANDLE THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
