THE DASH IN MY VEHICLE CRACKED SIGNIFICANTLY LAST WEEK AS I WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN, GM INDICATED THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL BUT AFTER READING INTO IT, THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO BE QUITE PREVALENT. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

MY VEHICLE IS PARKED UNDER A SHELTER. THE DASH CRACKED AT THE CORNER WHERE THE AIR BAG IS. IF YOU LOOK ON THE INTERNET, THERE TO SEE IF THERE IS A RECALL, YOU WILL SEE THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM IN THE SAME EXACT LOCATION.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2 ISSUES--- 1ST--DASHBOARD HAS CRACKS IN IT, WHICH 1 CRACK IS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. IT COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD AND CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO EXPLODE CAUSING GREAT HARM TO A PERSON. THESE CRACKS ARE IN THE SAME POSITION AS MANY OTHER CONSUMERS WHO HAVE MADE COMPLAINTS. 2ND--ENGINE SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING; NO STEERING OR BRAKE CONTROL. RADIO SHUTS OFF & ON, ALL DASH COMPONENTS FLICKER ON AND OFF, GAUGES TURN OFF, DOOR LOCKS ENGAGE & DISENGAGE. THIS HAPPENS FOR 3-10 SECONDS AND THEN WILL "RESET" AND FUNCTION NORMAL. I'VE LOOKED AT DIFFERENT FORUMS TO TRY TO FIND OUT WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THIS AND MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE.

TYPICAL CHEVY TAHOE DASH CRACKING ISSUE. IT WORRIES ME THAT IF I AM IN AN ACCIDENT THAT SHARP PIECES OF PLASTIC MAY CAUSE MORE HARM TO SOMEONE INSIDE THE CABIN THAN IF IT WAS ADDRESSED AND REPAIRED. GM IS AT FAULT FOR USING CHEAP MATERIALS AND THE CONSUMER SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY. IT ISN'T CAUSED BY ANYTHING THAT THE OWNER OF THE VEHICLE IS OR ISN'T DOING. PURELY MATERIAL AND MANUFACTURING DEFECTS. WE PAY $50K FOR THESE TRUCKS EACH THE LEAST GM COULD DO IS SPEND THE $500 IF THAT PER VEHICLE TO REPLACE IT.

A RANDOM CRACK, ABOUT 2" LONG, APPEARED IN DASH JUST ABOVE AND TO THE RIGHT OF STEERING WHEEL. FURTHER RESEARCH SHOWED THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH THIS MAKE AND MODE DURING 2007-2011 AND GM IS AWARE BUT IS DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT.

TAKATA RECALL ON CRACKED DASHBOARD: 2011 CHEVY TAHOE, 50K WHEN CRACKS WERE NOTICED. DASHBOARD CRACKED IN THREE PLACES: ALONG SIDE THE AIRBAG ON PASSENGER SIDE AND OVER THE STEERING WHEEL OF DRIVER SIDE. MY CONCERNS IS THE ENDANGERMENT FROM FLYING SHARDS FROM THE DEFECTIVE CRACKED DASHBOARD. I AM THE FIRST AND ONLY OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE SINCE DAY ONE, WITH NORMAL DAILING COMMUTE (WORK, HOME ETC), AND WELL MAINTAIN.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
STABILITY CONTROL WARNING LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING. INSTRUMENT PANEL INCLUDING ALL GAUGES STOPPED WORKING. STOPPED THE VEHICLE, WAITED AND RESTARTED IT. INSTRUMENT PANEL AND GAUGES BEGAN WORKING. FROM THEN ON INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ALL GAUGES WORKED ONLY INTERMITTENTLY. AFTER A FEW WEEKS GAUGES STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. I WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE, SPEED, AMOUNT OF FUEL, COULD NOT TELL IF THE TURN SIGNALS WERE WORKING, BACK UP WARNING SOUND WAS NOT WORKING, CRUISE CONTROL DID NOT WORK. DEALER SAID THE ENTIRE GAUGE PANEL REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE HAS JUST UNDER 50,000 MILES.

TAKATA RECALL THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING ALONG THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND OVER THE DRIVER SIDE TACHOMETER. MY CONCERN IS WHEN AND IF THE AIRBAG SHOULD DEPLOY, THERE MIGHT POSSIBLY BE PROJECTILES FROM THIS DEFECTIVE CRACK. OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, THE CRACK ABOVE THE TACHOMETER KEEPS GETTING LARGER. THE DASH IS CRACKED ALL OF THE TIME WHEN STATIONARY AND MOVING. I WENT TO THE LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP. THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED THAT THE CRACKED DASH WAS A DEFECT FOR SURE. HE ALSO STATED THAT THEY SEE THIS PROBLEM ALL OF THE TIME. WHEN WE CALLED GM ASSISTANCE, THEY STATED THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR IT BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE DASH. THIS IS SIMILAR TO OTHER COMPLAINTS I HAVE SEEN ON THE INTERNET. I AM NOT SURE EXACTLY WHEN THE DASH FIRST CRACKED BECAUSE MY WIFE IS THE PRIMARY DRIVER AND IS NOT TALL ENOUGH TO SEE OVER THE DASH IN A SEATED POSITION. I DROVE HER CAR AND NOTICED IT MARCH OF 2016, BUT IT COULD HAVE HAPPENED SOONER.

THE DASH JUST RECENTLY CRACKED OVER THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS VEHICLE HAD BEEN GARAGED, I USE WINDOW COVERS, AND IT ONLY HAS 40,000. I AM 100% A GM CUSTOMER, BUT THE LACK OF QUALITY WITH RESPECT TO MATERIALS IS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING.

SEAT BELTS
ON MARCH 17,2015 I LEFT MY HOME DRIVING MY VEHICE WITH THE SEAT BELT ON I GOT TO MY DESTINATION AND WHEN I TRIED TO FASTENED MY SEAT BELT , I HAD TO DRIVE BACK HOME UNBUCKLE, I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET IT THIS SAFETY CONCERN CHECKED, THEY CAME BACK AND TOLD ME THAT THE DRIVERS SEAT BELT LATCH WAS STUCK IN CLOSED POSITION, THEY NEVER SAID IT WAS DUE TO WEAR AND TEAR, THEY SAID THEY HAD TO REPLACE IT, THEY DID AND CHARGE ME FOR IT. I FILE A CLAIM WITH CHEVROLET AND 4 DAYS LATER THEY CAME BACK SAYING THAT THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SEAT BELT ISSUE THAT IT WAS WEAR AND TEAR, I MENTIONED TO THEM THAT MY TRUCK IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD,THEY SAID THAY HAD TO GO BACK AND SEE HOW THE PREVIOUS OWNER TREATED THE TRUCK AND ALSO THAT I PURCHASE A USED VEHICLE. I DISAGREE WITH EVERY SINGLE WORD THEY SAID. I THINK CHEVROLET IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SAFETY ACCESSORIES THEY INSTALL ON EVERY SINGLE VEHICLE. I THANK GOD NOTHING HAPPENED TO ME WHILE I DROVE WITHOUT A SEAT BELT. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY CARS OUT THERE HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE.
