CHEVROLET ALUMINUM AND CHROME PLATED WHEELS ARE CORRODING IF ALUMINUM OR RUSTING OF CHROME PLATED. IN MY CASE THE ALUMINUM WHEELS ARE CORRODING AROUND THE VALVE STEM HOLES AND I'VE BEEN TOLD BY MECHANICS THAT IF THE CORROSION GETS INTO THE WHEEL TIRE BEAD AREA THEN THEY ARE UNABLE TO PUT REPLACEMENT TIRES ON THE VEHICLE. I AM HAVING TROUBLE KEEPING AIR PRESSURE CONSTANT IN MY WHEELS BUT I DO NOT KNOW WHY. I SUSPECT THE WHEEL CORROSION IS GETTING INSIDE THE WHEELS BECAUSE OF THE AIR PRESSURE ISSUE. THERE ARE LARGE NUMBERS OF CUSTOMERS COMPLAINING ABOUT WHEEL CORROSION IN A GREAT MANY INTERNET FORUMS AND THE REPLACEMENT WHEEL MARKET IS THRIVING FROM ALL THE TRUCKS HAVING TO REPLACE THEIR WHEELS LONG BEFORE THEY SHOULD HAVE TO. I TOOK MY 2011 TAHOE LT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND CHEVROLET SAID THIS WAS NOT A RECALL ISSUE AND THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I WAS ALSO TOLD I WAS LUCKY I DIDN'T HAVE CHROME WHEELS BECAUSE THEY HAVE FAR MORE ISSUES THAN PEOPLE WITH ALUMINUM WHEELS. SINCE THIS COULD REDUCE TIRE PRESSURES TO UNSAFE LEVELS I BELIEVE THE NHTSA SHOULD RESEARCH THIS ISSUE FOR POSSIBLE RECALLS. I BELIEVE ALL MODELS OF GM TRUCKS FROM AT LEAST 2011 FORWARD HAVE THIS ISSUE.

TAKATA INFLATORS. IT HAS NOW BEEN OVER A YEAR THE AIRBAG ON MY VEHICLE HAS STILL NOT BEEN REPLACED. I WAS PUT ON NOTICE IT COULD CAUSE ME HARM YET NO REMEEDY HAS BEEN FOUND. CLEARLY THE AIRBAG NEEDS TO BE REPLACED SO THAT MY FAMILY IS SAFE. NOW I GET NOTICE THAT TK HOLDINGS HAS FILED CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR ME AND MY FAMILY AND OUR SAFETY. WE NOW HAVE A 40K VEHICLE THAT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND HAVE NO RECOURSE? CHEVROLET SHOULD BE LIABLE AN REQUIRED TO REPLACE MY AIRBAGS SO THAT I DON'T HAVE TO FEAR IF I AM IN AN ACCIDENT THE AIRBAG MAY KILL ME OR MY PASSENGER.WHAT IS BEING DONE TO HAVE THE AIRBAG REPLACED? EVERY TIME I CALL THE DEALER THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING CAN BE DONE I WANT THIS FIXED NOW.

TAKATA RECALL. MY 2011 VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE VERY HIGH HUMIDITY OF CENTRAL FLORIDA ITS ENTIRE LIFE. NHTSA AND GM SAID THERE WOULD BE A DECISION BY AUGUST 2017. I CALLED MY CHEVROLET DEALER TODAY (10/19/2017) AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NO RECALL AND A REMEDY IS NOT YET AVAILABLE. I FEEL VERY VULNERABLE CONTINUING TO OPERATE THIS VEHICLE IN A VERY HOT AND HUMID ENVIRONMENT. WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET A DECISION AND REMEDY?

I HAVE A LARGE CRACK GOING DOWN THE DASHBOARD OF MY TRUCK THE STEMS DIRECTLY FROM THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I HAVE CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALER AS WELL AS CHEVROLET REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND A SOLUTION. I AM CONCERNED THAT IF THERE WOULD BE SOME SORT OF AN ACCIDENT WHERE THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED, MY DASH WOULD EITHER IMPROPERLY SUPPORT THE AIRBAG AT EXPLOSION OR PIECES OF SCRAP PLASTIC WOULD FLY AROUND THE CABIN

RECENTLY, I HAVE NOTICED A RATTLE COMING FROM THE DASH AREA. I NOTICED THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE DASH TO THE UPPER LEFT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH AIRBAG. THERE'S ALSO ANOTHER PLACE ON THE DASH THAT HAS CRACKED AND CAUSES A LOUD RATTLING NOISE WHEN DRIVING. I CANNOT PINPOINT EXACTLY WHEN THE CRACKED HAPPENED. BUT, AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, I FOUND OUT THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON DEFECT IN CERTAIN GMC VEHICLES FOR YEARS 2007-2014. I PERSONALLY KNOW TWO PEOPLE THAT OWN GMC/CHEVY SUVS THAT HAVE THE SAME EXACT CRACK ON THE TOP AREA OF THE DASH. I AM MAINLY CONCERNED THAT IN THE EVENT MY AIRBAG DOES DEPLOY, THERE COULD BE SHRAPNEL BECAUSE OF THE LOCATION AND SEVERITY OF THE CRACK. ALSO, THERE IS NO WAY OF KNOWING IF THIS CRACK WOULD AT ALL INTERFERE WITH THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG.

WE HAVE A CRACK ON THE DASHBOARD AROUND THE AIRBAG. WE HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS TO GET GM TO FIX THE CRACK AND THE 1ST OPTION FROM A LOCAL DEALERSHIP WAS TO REFER US TO A MAN THAT COULD FILL IT IN CAN PAINT IT TO MATCH. A 3 YEAR OLD CHILD USING SILLY PUDDY COULD HAVE DONE A BETTER JOB AND THE CRACK WAS STILL THERE. OUR NEXT TRY WAS TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE WE PURCHASED IT AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIX IT AND REFERRED US TO A COMPANY DOWN THE STREET TO REPAIR IT. THAT COMPANY WAS A CAR ACCESSORY STORE THAT SAID THEY DIDN'T DO THAT TYPE OF WORK. THEN I EMAILED GM BECAUSE MY RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET REVEALED THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL GM MODELS. SO I EMAIL GM, WHO FIRST TOLD ME THAT IT WASN'T ANYTHING THEY COULD DO. AFTER I EXPLAINED I WAS A LOYAL CUSTOMER FOR SOME 30+ YEARS AND WHEN I PURCHASED THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE, WE ALSO BOUGHT A SILVERADO PICKUP AT THE SAME TIME. THEN I WAS REFERRED TO SOMEONE ELSE AND OVER A PERIOD OF 3 WEEKS, I FINALLY GO TO SPEAK WITH A PERSON WHO INSTRUCTED ME TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND LET THEM GET AN ESTIMATE OF HOW MUCH IT WOULD COST. THEY FIGURED THE COST AT $800.00 AND TOLD US WE HAD TO PAY $500.00 AND THEY WOULD COVER $300.00. I CAN'T SEE WHY WE MUST PAY FOR A DESIGN DEFECT THAT WE COULD NOT HAVE PREVENTED FROM HAPPENING. I PAID A LOT OF MONEY FOR THIS CAR AND I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO KEEP IT IN GOOD CONDITION. WHY SHOULD THE CONSUMER HAVE TO PAY FOR FLAWS IN THE DESIGN OF ANY CAR THAT'S BEING SOLD?

THE ENTIRE DASH IN MY 2011 CHEV TAHOE IS IN DISINTEGRATION. DURING THE LAST THREE MONTHS IT IS CRACKING INTO MANY PIECES. I UNDERSTAND THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM AND IS A PROBLEM FOR ALL OWNERS UNTIL 2016. WHAT IS GM DOING ABOUT THIS FACTORY DEFECT IN MATERIALS?? THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND IS GETTING WORSE AND CRACKING ACROSS THE ENTIRE DASH. MY SON HAS SAME PROBLEM WITH HIS 2012 GMC YUKON. GM WANTED $2000.00 TO REPLACE DASH UNIT. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM IF DASH COMES APART WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.
