MY SIERRA HAS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT MANY OTHER GM VEHICLES HAVE. THE DASH IS CRACKING, CREATING LOOSE PIECES. IT IS CRACKED AT THE AIRBAG. THIS SHARP EDGES COULD IMPAIR THE PROPER FUNCTION OF THE AIRBAG. IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, I AM AFRAID THE LOOSE DASH PIECES COULD POST A DANGER TO THE VEHICLES OCCUPANTS.
