HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR ALMOST 1 AND HALF YEARS FOR A FIX FOR THE AIR BAGS. CHECK WITH DEALER REGULARLY, STILL NO FIX. STILL DRIVING THE TRUCK BUT STILL WORRY EVERY TIME I DO. IF I SELL IT BE WORTH LESS AND SOMEONE ELSE WOULD HAVE SAME PROBLEM

DASHBOARD CRACKED IN TWO PLACES. THE PASSENGER SIDE CRACKED ON THE PORTION COVERING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. I AM WORRIED THAT IF INFLATED, THE PLASTIC SHARDS WILL IMPALE ANY PASSENGER. ALSO THE DASHBOARD CRACKED ON THE DRIVER SIDE ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. IT IS BEGINNING TO CAVE IT.
