THE ABS KEEPS ENGAGING DURING LOW SPEED STOPPING AND PARKING MANEUVERS, DRY CONDITIONS. THIS IS INCREASING BRAKING DISTANCE WHEN APPROACHING SLOWING TRAFFIC AND IS VERY ALARMING. WE NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I CALLED A LOCAL DEALER, AND THEY SAID THAT "RECALL WORK" HAD BEEN PERFORMED FOR THIS ISSUE IN 2005, AND I WAS ON MY OWN FOR THE REPAIR. I THINK THIS IS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW AND GM SHOULD COVER THE REPAIR INDEFINITELY UNLESS A DESIGN IMPROVEMENT WAS CREATED. A CAR SHOULD STOP WHEN YOU NEED IT TOO, NOT CONTINUE ON ITS COURSE AND SPEED IGNORING MY INPUT. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THEY REPLACED PARTS OF A BAD DESIGN WITH PARTS OF THE SAME DESIGN THEN THERE WAS NO DESIGN IMPROVEMENT TO PREVENT A RECURRENCE WHEN THE "RECALL WORK" WAS PERFORMED. I THINK THIS IS A MAJOR FLAW IN THE RECALL PROCESS. WHAT RECOURSE TO I HAVE NOW? I KNOW SEVERAL OWNERS OF MID-2000'S CHEVY TRUCKS WITH THIS ISSUE, AND IT KEEPS COMING BACK IF YOU OWN THE TRUCK LONG ENOUGH. WHAT IS BEING DONE? I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO KEEP PAYING FOR REPAIRS.

I PURCHASED A 2009 CHEVY TAHOE USED AND A KNEW ABOUT THE CRACKING DASHES SO I MADE SURE THE ONE I PURCHASED DIDN'T HAVE ANY CRACKS. I THOUGHT MAYBE THEY HAD RESOLVED THE ISSUE. WELL, AFTER FILLING UP WITH GAS THE OTHER DAY I LOOKED OVER AD NOTICED AND CRACK IN MY DASH RIGHT AT THE AIRBAG. THIS IS VERY CONCERNING AS I HAVE 3 KIDS THAT RIDE IN THAT CAR AND IF THE AIRBAG GOES OFF I'M AFRAID THE PLASTIC WILL ACT LIKE SHRAPNEL AND REALLY HURT SOMEONE. GM KNOWS ABOUT THIS AND I CONTACTED THEM ABOUT IT AND THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. MORE PEOPLE NEED TO COME FORWARD ON THIS MATTER AND GM NEEDS TO ADDRESS IT FAST BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

THE VEHICLE DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES TO INCLUDE THE AREA SURROUNDING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG, AND NEAR THE STEERING COLUMN. IN THE EVENT OF A VEHICLE CRASH WITH AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, THE DASHBOARD COULD FRAGMENT AND BECOME A HAZARDOUS PROJECTILE.

I HAVE A 2012 TAHOE THAT HAS AN CRAKING ISSUE WITH THE DASH BOARD. ONE MONTH AGO IN AUGUST,2016 I WAS DRIVING AND OUT OF THE BLUE A 1 1/2 INCH CRACK SUDDENLY APPEARED FROM THE DASH AREA INTO SIDE PASSENGER AIR BAG AREA. TODAY IS SEPTEMBER 2016 AND I WENT OUT TO MY CAR THIS MORNING TO LEAVE AND NOTICED WHILE I WAS STARTING MY CAR THAT THERE WAS A NOW A 4 INCH CRACK JUST ABOVE THE COUNSEL AREA IN THE DASH. MY VEHICLE JUST HIT 40 THOUSAND MILES AND THIS IS JUST UNEXCEPTABLE FOR CHEVY TO NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE 2007 IN MANY OF THERE VEHICLES MAINLY THE TAHOE. MY VEHICLE IS VERY WELL MAINTAINED AND STILL LOOKS AS IT DID THE DAY I BOUGHT IT AND THE CRACKS IN THE DASH ARE TO ME A HAZARD ESPECIALLY THE ONE AROUND THE AIR BAG.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. DASHBOARD CRACKED IN TWO SPOTS OVER TIME. VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. FIRST CRACK WAS NOTED OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL OF THE VEHICLE'S GAUGES THAT ARE USED TO DETERMINE SPEED, RPMS, ETC. SECOND WAS NOTED ADJACENT TO THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG. IF THE VEHICLE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT, THE CRACKED DASHBOARD COULD PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG RENDERING THE AIRBAG UNUSABLE AND ALLOWING FOR MORE BODILY HARM AND POSSIBLY FATALITY. ALSO, IF THE VEHICLE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE AIRBAGS DID DEPLOY WITHOUT BEING PUNCTURED, THE CRACKED DASHBOARD COULD THEN BECOME SHRAPNEL CAUSING MORE BODILY HARM AND POSSIBLY FATALITY TO ANYONE THAT IS A PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE. I URGE THE NHTSA TO LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AND RESEARCH IT HEAVILY. CHEVROLET AND GM ARE AWARE THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH MANY OF THEIR VEHICLES OF THE '07-'11 MODELS, YET REFUSE TO TAKE ANY CORRECTIVE ACTION. I OBTAINED A REPAIR ESTIMATE FROM A CERTIFIED CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP FOR $761.63.

I PURCHASED THIS TAHOE IN 2008 WITH ALMOST 13000 MILES ON IT. BEFORE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED I HAD THE DASH BOARD REPLACED BECAUSE OF THE CRACKS IN IT. NOW IT HAS CRACKS ALL OVER WHICH ARE WORSE THEN THE ORIGINAL ONE HAD. THERE ARE A LOT OF SHARP AREARS ON IT THAT CUT EASILY WHEN RUNNING A RAG OVER IT TO CLEAN IT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT WOULD BE THE RESULT IF IT WAS INVOLVED IN ANY KIND OF ACCIDENT.

TAKATA RECALL - I WOULD PREFER TO HAVE MY PASSENGER AIR BAG DISABLED UNTIL REPAIR PARTS ARE AVAILABLE BECAUSE I HAVE SURVIVED FRONTAL COLLISION WITH SEAT BELT USE BUT I DON'T THINK MY ODDS ARE AS GOOD WITH SHRAPNEL FLYING AT MY HEAD AT 200 MPH FROM A DEFECTIVE TAKATA INFLATOR.

THERE IS A LARGE CRACK IN DASHBOARD ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. THE VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND WE HAVE FOUND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH OUR MODEL. WE FEEL THAT IN A COLLISION THE DASH COULD SPLINTER AND SHARP EDGES COULD CAUSE INJURIES TO DRIVER AND PASSENGERS. THE MANUFACTURER BELIEVES THIS WOULD NOT HAPPEN. HOWEVER, HOW CAN THEY ACCOUNT FOR AN INFINITE NUMBER OF VARIABLES IN AN ACCIDENT? WE WERE OFFERED A DISCOUNT FOR A REPAIR AT THE DEALERSHIP, YET THE AMOUNT WAS STILL NEAR $600. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND WE SHOULDN'T INCUR ANY COSTS!
