- Some describe the crack as large enough that moisture could enter the airbag compartment, raising concern about faulty deployment.
- The airbag warning light or a message center alert stating the airbag may not deploy in a crash appeared for some owners, requiring dealer visits.
- One owner reported the curtain and seat airbags deployed unexpectedly after hitting a pothole at highway speed, with no crash or injury resulting.
- Dealers reportedly told several owners that repairing the cracked dashboard around the airbag would cost around $2,000, which was declined as out-of-warranty.
