    Photo of the offending slots would help 🤣

    Most likely the cabin air temperature sensor, or possibly the Mic for the hands free system.

    On vehicles with a passenger air bag, that location is used for the warning light to show when the air bag has been turned off.

    So really it's just a blank cover with a couple of slots. I did have a Vauxhall car that had similar slots, you could use it to store a fuel card or a credit card while going through a 'Drive Thru'

    I don't know on the Fiesta if those slots are wide enough or deep enough.
