Default Cracked dash...

I had the strangest thing happen to me the other day. It was one of the 95+ degree days with high humidity and one of the guys I work with sat in my car, adjusted the seat and out of nowhere I saw a crack in my dash!! and as with most things, bad went to worse. It's spreading upwards so pretty soon it will go from top to bottom. Has anyone else out there had this kind of experience? Any ideas on what it will cost me to fix it? Thanks a lot.

Honda Warranty should cover something like that...

That must have been a big friend. Looks like around $500 just for the part. Might be cheaper in other places shop around or wait for someone to part their car. Unless of course your dealer deems it coverable under warranty.

Dash problems have been pretty common in hot climates. Honda has replaced many and should do yours without problems. Most of us caught it in the 'bubble and divot' stage of deterioration.
