| My two biggest concerns are the door panels and passenger air bag. i saw the same make and model as my car yesterday and the same door panel was missing on that car also. this is a very dangerous problem. the door panel simply blew off as we were going down the road, posing a threat for others on the road. the passenger panel is loose. the passenger air bag looks as though it is about to deploy. the corners are turned up. people are afraid to ride in my front seat due to the danger the air bag could deploy. these are both safety issues. i hope you will consider a recall and replacement of door parts. thank you.*ak | |||
