THIS IS A SERIES OF CRACK ON THE FRONT DASHBOARD. STARTED FROM THE COWLING OVER INSTRUMENT PANELS AND HAS SPREAD TO A SECTION BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THERE HAVE BEEN A NUMBER OF GM VEHICLES WITH THIS SAME DASHBOARD CRACKING BUT GM DOES NOTHING ABOUT IT. I'M ONLY A LITTLE OVER 50K MILES.

AIR BAGS
ON MY 2013 TAHOE A CRACK SUDDENLY APPEARED ON MY DASH BY THE PASSAGES AIRBAG. I AM A TRUE AND FAITHFUL USER OF A WINDSHIELD SHADE AND DASH CONDITIONER THAT PREVENTS CRACKS IN DASH. THIS CRACK APPEARED 6 MONTHS AFTER THE PURCHASE IT AND HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO GET CHEVROLET TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT WITH NO LUCK. NOW THE DASH IS CAVING IN WHICH IS GOING TO AFFECT MY PASSENGER AIRBAG. I DON'T WANT TO WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE IS WITH ME AND IT CAUSE HARM TO MY PASSENGER. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR A NEW DASH THAT HAS HAD THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS DEALING WITH DASH CRACK PROBLEMS IN THIS KIND OF VEHICLE.

THE DASH HAS CRACKED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE CRACK STARTS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF PASSENGER AIR BAG AND CONTINUES UPWARD. STARTED SMALL AND SEEMED TO GET LARGER OVERNIGHT. VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT. NO REASON FOR THIS. SCARES ME IF AIRBAG DEPLOYS WILL PLASTIC EXPLODE INTO SOMEONE. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ , THIS SEEMS TO BE QUITE A PROBLEM WITH THESE DASHES.

DASHBOARD HAS SEVERAL CRACKS. THREE AROUND THE AIRBAG BOX WHICH ARE EXTREMELY CONCERNING! I TRY TO ALWAYS HAVE MY TAHOE IN COOL PLACES TO PREVENT EXTREME TEMPERATURES AND FURTHER DAMAGE BUT STILL NOTICE THE CRACKS GROWING. I UNDERSTAND THERE HAVE BEEN MANY GM OWNERS HAVING TO DEAL WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS.THERE MUST OBVIOUSLY BE A DEFECT IN THE MATERIAL OR THE ASSEMBLY OF THIS PART. BEING BOTH A SAFETY CONCERN AND A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION ISSUE, I AM REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO OPTIONS FOR RESOLVING THIS MATTER.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
APPROACHING ANY RIGHT HAND TURNS COMING DOWN IN SPEED ON A HIGHWAY EXIT THE STABILITY AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS APPEAR AND SWITCH TO OFF. FELT A JERKING FEELING WHEN I WAS STARTING TO ACCELERATE ALMOST AS IF THE ENGINE WAS STALLING IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE LIGHTS COMING ON.. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I FELT A JERKING BUT THE LIGHTS HAVE NOW COME ON A FEW TIMES USUALLY WHEN EXITING A HIGHWAY AND GO OFF ONCE THE CAR IS SHUT OFF AND COMES BACK ON.

DASHBOARD- CRUMBLING APART. TWO CRACKS, ONE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND A 9 INCH CRACK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THIS CAR HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF. GARAGE PARKED WITH 26,000 MILES. VERY CHEAP MATERIAL USED IN A $65,000 DOLLAR CAR. THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE IN ANY OTHER CAR I HAVE OWNED.

MY DASHBORD CRACKED AS I WAS SITTING IN IT PROGRAMMING MY BLUETOOTH TO MY PHONE. MY TAHOE IS ALWAY GARAGED KEPT AND IT ONLY HAS 26,000 MILES. IN NO WAY HAS IT BEEN EXPOSED TO EXTRAME HEAT OR SUNLIGHT. IT CRACKED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ABOVE THE AIRBAG. I ALSO HAVE A 2008 CHEVROLET SILVERADO THAT THE DASH IS CRACKED ON IT TOO. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, I FOUND THAT THIS ISSUE IS MORE THAN JUST AN ISOLATED ISSUE, AS PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE EVERYWHERE. THIS IS A LEMON AND SHOULD BE A RECALL.

CHEVY WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT'S OUT OF WARRANTY. WELL, THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE NOT TO MENTION THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINT OF 2007-2013 CHEVY DASHED CRACKING.

DASHBOARD CRACKING IN TWO AREAS, ONE STEMMING FROM PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG AREA AND THE OTHER COMING UP TOWARD THE STEERING WHEEL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THIS STARTED JUST PAST THE 3 YEAR MARK, SO IS OUT OF WARRANTY.

THE PURPOSE FOR THIS COMMUNICATION IS TO LET YOU KNOW I'VE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE DASHBOARD ON MY CAR THAT MECHANICS BELIEVE WILL EFFECT THE AIRBAG. AT THIS POINT I'M AT A BIT OF A LOSS FOR WORDS AND UNDERSTANDING WITH THIS PARTICULAR SITUATION. THE DASHBOARD HAS MULTIPLE CRACKS THROUGHOUT. THE CAR HAS 87,000 MILES AND HAS BEEN GARAGED FOR ITS ENTIRE OWNERSHIP AND WELL MAINTAINED. THE BIGGEST ISSUE SURROUNDING THE CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD IS THAT THEY'VE FORMED AROUND THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG, WHICH MULTIPLE DEALERSHIPS HAVE TOLD ME IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THAT BEING SAID, THE DEALERSHIPS AND THE ASSOCIATE I SPOKE TO AT CHEVROLET CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE TEAM HAS SAID THEY'VE SEEN THIS ISSUE MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY'RE SURPRISED THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL ISSUED. I HONESTLY WOULDN'T CARE ABOUT THE CRACKS IF THEY WEREN'T SURROUNDING THE AIRBAG. PICTURES OF MY CAR INCLUDED. VIN NUMBER [XXX] AFTER RESEARCHING THROUGH MULTIPLE DEALERSHIPS AND ONLINE THERE SEEMS TO BE A LARGE NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM AND THERE ARE CURRENT LAWSUITS PENDING AGAINST GM, PLEASE FOLLOW THE LINK: HTTP://WWW.ABCACTIONNEWS.COM/MONEY/CONSUMER/TAKING-ACTION-FOR-YOU/ANOTHER-BIG-AUTO-MAKER-GETS-HIT-WITH-A-SUIT-OVER-CRACKING-DASH-BOARDS HTTPS://WWW.CHANGE.ORG/P/RECALL-2007-2013-VEHICLES-DUE-TO-THE-SAFETY-OF-CRACKED-DASHES IF THIS ISN'T ENOUGH CONCERN ON YOUR END TO CORRECT THE ISSUE AND ISSUE A RECALL I'M NOT SURE WHAT IS.
