Hi guys,

Have any of you noticed bubbles in your dash?

Another defect that I have noticed is that many passenger airbag covers have an ugly indentaion in them where due to defective manufacturing or design the middle sags.

I have had both these problems from day one, so it looks like its time to hit HA up for a new dash.

I have some dimples in the dash, but I haven't noticed the airbag cover. I had it inspected at a service and they OK'd a replacement but I haven't bothered yet.

Yeah same here! The Passenger Airbag cover is indented on mine too...

I have a dimple in the dash, in front of the driver. I only see it when I clean the inside of the windscreen.

My airbag looks fine.

Woow... haven't noticed that prior to you pointing it out.

That is simply the thin spot where it splits when the air bag operates it is common to most dash mounted passenger air bags.

Can anyone post a pick of this?? I feel that there would be alot of people including myself who would like to know how it looks like.

This is the dimple I have, it is very small and only shows up in some lighting conditions.



I agree with Col about the airbag, it is designed to split and the plastic is thin.

I am aware of that, but this is sagging is caused by excessivelythin/weak plastic. My black S2000 never had this problem. My silver one does.

Several of our American colleagues have had this fixed under warranty.

Had the dealer look at my dash yesterday and....

As unbelievable as it may sound HA have approved the replacement of my dash and the airbag cover.

So it is a defect after all.

For a moment I thought they were going to say it was caused by driving the car hard.
