INSTRUMENT DASH PANEL COVER IS , AND HAS CONTINUED TO PEEL BACK AT THE DEFROST VENTS AT THE WINDSHIELD SINCE 2003. IT APPEARS THE GLUE HAD BEGUN TO FAIL. EACH TIME I BROUGHT MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE MY CONCERNS AND COMPLAINT OF THE DASH BOARD WERE LARGELY IGNORED. SIMPLY BLOWN OFF TO SAY IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. WHEN ASKED IF THERE HAD BEEN ANY RECALL OR WIDESPREAD COMPLAINTS I WAS TOLD NO TO BOTH QUESTIONS. IT WAS ONLY RECENTLY I DISCOVERED ON A GOVERNMENT RECALL SITE THERE HAD ACTUALLY BEEN A CUSTOMER SERVICE ACTION OFFERED TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. I DID NOT RECEIVE THIS NOTIFICATION. I AM VERY DISSATISFIED TO LEARN THAT NOT ONLY WASN'T I NOTIFIED OF THIS OFFER, MY DIRECT QUEST
