“DASH ON MY 1999 CHRYSLER 300M HAS A CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WHERE THE AIRBAG IS LOCATED. WE BOUGHT THE CAR NEW AND HAVE KEPT IT IN OUR GARAGE. THE CRACK IS NOT NEW IT HAS BEEN THERE FOR YEARS. MY UNCLE HAD THE EXACT SAME CRACK IN HIS 1999 300M AS WELL. I'VE LEARNED VIA THE INTERNET THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. I FEEL IT COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD SINCE IT EXISTS RIGHT OVER THE AIR BAG. *TR”

“SOON AFTER WARRANTY ON MY 1999 300M EXPIRED A CRACK DEVELOPED ON DRIVER SIDE OF VEHICLE. I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER AND NOTHING WAS DONE. NO REPAIR SHOP WOULD ATTEMPT TO FIX IT BECAUSE THEY WOULD NOT WANT TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR AIRBAG. MONTHS LATER A SPLIT DEVELOPED ON PASSENGER SIDE NEAR AIRBAG. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAG MAY OR MAY NOT DEPLOY. I NOW HAVE A 12 INCH SPLIT ON DRIVER SIDE AND A 8 INCH SPLIT OVER THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. IT IS UNSIGHTLY AND UNSAFE AND EFFECTS THE RESALE OF THE VEHICLE. *TR”
