The dashboard has cracked over the passenger side airbag. The crack is over 12 inches long right above the airbag. This crack will affect the airbag and needs to be fixed. There are thousands of acura tl's with this same issue. I now recently noticed other cracks throughout the dashboard. Honda needs to take care of their customers if they want continuous business!

In the morning when I was in the car I noted a big crack in the dash, passenger side. Look like a air bag going to explode.
My dashboard cracked around the passenger air bag...
The dash board cracked on my 2007 acura tl. The cracks are above the steering wheel and around the passenger airbag. Acura said they will not replace this because the car is out of warranty. This is obviously at no fault or abuse and it is clearly a defect that such a new car has this problem. I have read numerous posts online about this same problem and it should be classified as a manufacturer defect.
This is a generic complaint. A significant number of vehicles use red indicator dials against a dark background including, but not limited to, the vehicle type noted above. Approximately 10% of the male population is color deficient often making viewing the dial difficult if not impossible. Consideration should be given to requiring easily viewed colors by color impaired individuals, I.e. White or yellow against a dark background or black against white, etc. I've been meaning to suggest this for years but keep forgetting. Thanks.

2007 acura tl. Consumer writes in regards to dashboard crack near passenger side air bag. *smd the dealership quoted the consumer a price of $989.00 to replace the dashboard.
I recently purchased a 2007 acura tl type s with 42378 miles on the odometer. Upon getting home, I found out that the dashboard was cracked in three (3) places. Fortunately for me, the car was still under warranty so I took it in to acura dealership to get the dashboard replaced. While at the dealership I found some other customers with the same issue. I later found out that this was common problem with the acura tl especially in the southern states. Another issue I'm experiencing is with the 3rd gear which I also found out to be common with the acuras. Sometimes while driving, the stick would not go into 3rd gear smoothly or sometimes it just pops out of the 3rd gear. The third and final complaint that I have read about and starting to experience is rattling. The interior cabin of the car though quiet from exterior noise seems to be making some noise of its own from the inside starting with the windows. I hope someone at acura is aware of these problems and is dealing with the issue. Beside that, the car seems to be a fine piece of steel.
2007 acura tl. Consumer states discontent regarding functionality and design of trunk *tgw the consumer stated the trunk lid suddenly came crashing down on his head from an almost fully extended height. The consumer suffered a head injury that required five stitches.
I own a 2007 acura tl-navi. The front doors of the car are large and heavy. The part or parts of the door hinge mechanism which are supposed to hold the front doors in the open position when entering or exiting the vehicle appear to be under-designed for their intended purpose. As a result, the doors often close unexpectedly with significant force, and can seriously injure a hand or leg. The problem is especially severe when the car is parked in an uphill position, as the force of gravity causes the front doors to slam shut. I request that the federal safety agency require the manufacturer to re-design the hinge mechanism (or other parts that are defective) and offer them to owners at no charge.
