Again we see not to put much faith in a clean Carfax. My guess is there was more damage than he informed you of.

I'm trying to remember the build of dash's with the passenger airbag?? Wouldn't the entire dash need to be replaced if the passenger bag blows? (Well not the entire dash, but the piece that goes across to where the VIN tag is.)
