CRACKED DASH- DRIVER'S SIDE, COMPLETELY CRACKED AND SEPARATED, FROM STEERING WHEEL SIDE TO WINDSHIELD. THE DASH CRACKED IN SECOND PLACE A FEW DAYS AGO, ALONG SIDE OF THE MAIN CRACK. VERY FLIMSY MATERIAL AND CREATES A NOISE WHEN DRIVING. THE DASH HAS STARTED TO LIFT AND SEPARATE AT THE LARGER CRACK AND THIS IS CAUSING A GLARE IN THE WINDSHIELD WHEN THE SUN IS OUT WHILE DRIVING(VERY DANGEROUS!). THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE OF THE GLARE AND THE POTENTIAL OF BROKEN DASH FRAGMENTS THAT COULD CAUSE INJURY OR EVEN A FATALITY IF THE AIRBAGS ARE DEPLOYED. THIS IS A POOR DESIGN THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES AND EVEN DEATH!
