EVENTS ARE THAT THE DASHBOARD BEGAN TO CRACK, CRUMBLING SMALL PIECES INTO THE ELECTRICAL WIRING, AIR BAG VICINITY, AND EVEN INTO THE FLOORBOARD. EVENTUALLY, HUGE CHUNKS OF PLASTIC HAS FALLEN INTO THE CAVITIES, IMPEDING BRAKING, AND CAUSING CONCERN OF FIRE UNDER THE DASHBOARD AREA. CARE MUST BE TAKEN NOT TO TOUCH THE DASHBOARD OR YOUR HAND WILL GO THROUGH WHAT REMAINS OF IT. *TR
DASHBOARD CRACKED AND CAVED IN WHEN I HIT A BUMP WHILE DRIVING APPROX 68 MPH ON THE FREEWAY (I- 15 NORTHBOUND THROUGH LAS VEGAS). PLASTIC FALLING INTO THE DASHBOARD AREA DISCONNECTED SEVERAL WIRES CAUSING THE HEADLIGHTS TO GO OUT AS WELL AS SEVERAL OTHER ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES. FREEWAY WAS WELL LIT ENOUGH FOR ME TO STOP SAFELY AND CALL FOR ASSISTANCE. *TR
