Description of the problem | Accelerating from stop light and at 35 mph a loud explosion was heard from the passenger dash area. I thought i saw some powdery dust afterward. Took the truck to the dealership and explained what happened. They did a drb computer test and road test. Nothing found. Also there were no dash warning lights. When it happened my first thought was the air bag charge went off, but why didn't the bag come out. |
