I have seen other complaints on here for the same thing. Last summer I started seeing small cracks in the dash. I always used a window sun screen. I bought a dash cover thinking it would protect it more. I took the cover off too clean the car and there are cracks running all through my dash board!!! I am concerned about the air bags being deficient now. I don't think Hyundai cares about this issue but it really looks like sh*t and never had a dash board do this before.
