MY DASHBOARD IS CRACKED AT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I HAVE NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. I GOT INTO MY VEHICLE AND NOTICED THE CRACK. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY IF MY AIRBAG DEPLOYS AND PLASTIC DASH PIECES TURN INTO PROJECTILES. MY VEHICLE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER THE PROBLEM.

POWER TRAIN
TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN CLUNKY AND JERKY FROM FROM PURCHASE. THE VEHICLE VIBRATES BETWEEN 30 - 35 MILES PER HOUR WHEN SHIFTING. THE VEHICLE LURCHES FORWARD WHEN ACCELERATING AS IF IT HAS DIFFICULTY DOWN-SHIFTING. THE PROBLEM IS PRESENT FROM SIMPLY BACKING UP OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, MODEST SPEEDS ON CITY STREETS, OR ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN BROUGHT BACK TO THE DEALER, THEY CLAIMED IT WAS A SOFTWARE ISSUE AND "REFRESHED" THE SOFTWARE. THE PROBLEM HAS NOT GONE AWAY AND DID NOT IMPROVE BY THIS SOFTWARE CORRECTION. MY INTERNET RESEARCH INDICATES THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE NEW 8-SPEED TRANSMISSION FOR THE 2015 YUKON DENALI AND CADILLAC ESCALADE.

STEERING
VEHICLE STEERING SHAFT CLICKS AND POPS WHEN WHEEL IS TURNED, AS IF STEERING SHAFT IS BINDING. HAPTIC FEEDBACK IS FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL DURING EACH INSTANCE OF A CLICK OR POP. DEALERSHIP REPLACED STEERING SHAFT BEARING, RETAINER SPRING, AND SEAT AND PROBLEM HAS RETURNED. ONLINE FORUMS HAVE SHOWN NUMEROUS OTHER GM OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. SOME HAVE REPORTED STEERING WHEEL LOCATION SENSOR IS CATCHING. OTHERS HAVE REPORTED ENTIRE STEERING SHAFT MUST BE REPLACED AND CLAIM IT IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER. THIS IS NOT ONLY A NUISANCE, BUT CREATES CONSTERNATION OVER SAFETY OF STEERING. ISSUE SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FOR POSSIBLE SAFETY RECALL.

THERE ARE 3 CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD OF MY 2011 GMC YUKON. ONE CRACK IS NEAR THE LEFT FRONT CORNER OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. TWO CRACKS ARE LOCATED NEAR THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE MATERIALS AND THE GM SHOULD REPLACE THE DASHBOARD FREE OF CHARGE. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY.

SEAT BELTS
THE PLASTIC SURROUND AROUND MY SEAT BELT IS DEFECTIVE. THE PLASTIC TABS HAVE BROKEN FROM NORMAL USAGE AND THE SURROUND NOW IMPEDES EITHER LATCHING OR UNLATCHING, AND THE SEAT BELT COMES UNLATCHED WHEN IT APPEARS TO BE PROPERLY LATCHED. OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME YEAR/MODEL HAVE THE SAME ISSUE, AND THE SAME ISSUE HAS OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE SEAT BELTS ON THE SAME VEHICLE. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE, BECAUSE (1) THE SEAT BELT EITHER APPEARS TO BE LATCHED WHEN IT IS NOT; OR (2) THE SEAT BELT WILL NOT UNLATCH WHEN THE RELEASE IS DEPRESSED, PREVENTING OCCUPANTS FROM EGRESSING THE VEHICLE QUICKLY IF NEEDED. THE TABS HOLDING THE PLASTIC SURROUND ARE TOO SMALL AND ALLOW THE BUCKLE TO FLEX AND JAM, OR THEY BREAK OFF AND INTERFERE WITH THE LATCH MECHANISM.

FOUND 2 CRACKS IN MY DASHBOARD...THIS IS NOT NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. ONE CRACK ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ONE CRACK NEAR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT ONE DEEP CRACK BY THE AIRBAG. IS THIS SAFE? WITH THE CONCERN OVER THE TAKATA AIR BAG ISSUES AND NO POSSIBLE WAY TO REMEDY THAT AT THIS TIME I AM WORRIED THAT THIS PRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD TO MY FAMILY. CALLED GM AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY WILL DO UNLESS I WANT TO PURCHASE A NEW DASHBOARD??? HOW CAN THERE BE SO MANY COMPLAINTS WITH NO ACTION FROM GM?

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED AT THE CORNER WHERE THE AIRBAG WOULD BE DEPLOYED. WE HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED THAT THIS CAR HAS A RECALL ON THE AIRBAG, BUT WE DO NOT KNOW WHEN THIS WILL TAKE PLACE. MY CONCERN IS WHETHER THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY AND NOT GET RIPPED BY THE SHARP EDGE OF THE PLASTIC DASHBOARD. THE DEALER WANTS $1000. TO REPLACE THE DASH THAT SIMPLY CRACKED FROM THE TEXAS HEAT. ANY STUDIES ON THIS? THIS JUST CRACKED WHILE SITTING PARKED. THE DATE OF APRIL 1, 2016 IS AN ESTIMATE.

I PURCHASED NEW, TWO, GMC YUKON DENALIS IN 2007, 2013. BOTH DASH BOARDS ARE CRACKING AND POSE A SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECT. I USE THESE VEHICLES FOR PLEASURE "ON ROAD" ONLY USE. MY DAUGHTER DRIVES THE 2007 TO COLLEGE NOW AND HER DASH BOARD IS CRACKED FROM THE DRIVERS SIDE TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AND FLAPS AROUND WHILE DRIVING/OPERATING THE VEHICLE DOWN THE ROAD, THIS IS A HUGH DISTRACTION. THE DEALER, THAT I PURCHASED THE TWO NEW VEHICLES FROM CLAIMS THAT IT IS NOT THERE PROBLEM AND BLAME GMC, WHO WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE ISSUE ON EITHER VEHICLE. I STILL OWN AND DRIVE BOTH VEHICLES TODAY AND AM BUILDING A CASE FOR WHEN SOMETHING SERIOUS HAPPENS BECAUSE OF THE LARGE DASH CRACKS FLAPPING AROUND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I WELCOME ANY ASSISTANCE FROM GMC OR MY GMC DEALER TO ADRESS THIS KNOWN DASH CRACKING ISSUE ANYTIME? I ALSO WELCOME NHTSA TO FURTHER INVESTIGATE THIS KNOWN ISSUE AND RESPOND BACK TO A SOLUTION OTHER THAN THE $1,000.00 DEALER SOLUTION FOR ME TO FIX THIS ON MY OWN. THANK YOU

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION I APPLIED THE BRAKES THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND THE WAS TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE. GUIDED THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP. THEY FOUND RUSTED BRAKE LINES AT THE ABS VALVE ALONG WITH A RUSTED BACKING PLATE FOR THE VALVE. IN ORDER TO IMPROVE VEHICLE SAFETY THE LINES WILL ALL BE REPLACED WITH STAINLESS STEEL SO THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY POOR DESIGN SINCE A SINGLE FAILURE SHOULD NOT CAUSE TOTAL FAILURE OF A SUPPOSED DUAL BREAKING SYSTEM.
