2013 Chrysler 300 airbags complaints

The leather wrap on my instrument panel has started to delaminate on both the passenger side and drivers side, despite being garaged from new so it has not sat out in the sun. As far as I can judge, on the passenger side, the delamination extends down to the upper part of the pab. I am concerned that this may affect the pab deployment should an accident occur. If I somehow manage to re-glue the leather covering, will that affect pab deployment.
