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.

Takata recall. My dash is cracked next to the air bag. If this air bag goes off before it is recalled plastic parts from dash might harm the driver and or passenger. I think gm needs to recall the cracked dash complaints that people are posting on line. I had this dash replaced once before under warranty.
