TAKATA RECALL, IT HAS BEEN OVER 1 YEAR SINCE ORIGINAL NOTIFICATION OF RECALL. CONTACTED GM AND THEY STATE THE RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ACTIVATED YET AND THEY DO NOT HAVE AN EXPECTED START DATE. I FEEL THIS IS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF TIME TO CORRECT A SAFETY ISSUE.

MY DASH HAS CRACKED. ONE DAY I JUST GOT IN MY TRUCK AND NOTICED THE DASH HAD A SMALL CRACK IN THE PLASTIC. THE CRACK HAS SINCE MULTIPLIED TO MULTIPLE CRACKS. IT HAS HAPPENED NOT EVEN DRIVING MY TRUCK. I AM AFRAID THAT SINCE THE CRACK IS NEAR MY AIRBAG THAT IT WILL SEND SHRAPNEL THRUOUT THE CAB AND CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.

TAKATA RECALL. THIS RECALL IS TAKING AN EXCESSIVELY LONG TIME. I HAVE CONTACTED GMC PRODUCT SUPPORT AT 8004628782 TO SUBMIT A TIER 1 ESCALATION ON JULY 27TH. AS OF AUGUST 25TH, THEY STILL FAIL TO EXPEDITE THE PARTS TO COMPLETE A SAFETY RECALL. SINCE MY WIFE IS PREGNANT SHE CANNOT SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT. ONCE OUR SECOND CHILD ARRIVES IN MID SEPTEMBER WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE TOGETHER. I AM UNCLEAR HOW TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE.

THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2013 GMC SIERRA 2500HD HAS A CRACK THAT RUNS FROM THE RADIUS OF THE UPPER LEFT HAND CORNER OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG TO THE FWD EDGE OF THE DASHBOARD THAT RUNS PARALLEL TO THE WINDSHIELD. THE CRACK PENETRATES THROUGH THE DASHBOARD COMPLETELY CREATING TWO SEPARATE SECTIONS WITH ALMOST COMPLETE FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT. ACTIVATION BY THE AIRBAG WILL CAUSE INTERFERENCE/CONTACT BETWEEN THE DEVICE, AND/OR ITS COMPONENTS, AND WITH THE NON-SECURED SECTIONS OF THE DASHBOARD AND MOST LIKELY RESULT IN THEM BEING SEPARATED/DISLODGED AND POTENTIALLY LAUNCHED IN THE CABIN RESULTING IN POSSIBLE STRIKES TO OCCUPANTS. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY WITH NO CRACK AND WHEN I EMERGED THE NEXT MORNING AND ENTERED THE VEHICLE, STARTED THE ENGINE, THE CRACK OCCURRED. THE MERE POTENTIAL FOR INTERFERENCE BETWEEN THE AIR BAG ACTIVATION AND BROKEN DASHBOARD SECTIONS, OBVIOUSLY DUE TO A POOR, INSUFFICIENTLY TESTED DESIGN, (RELIABILITY TESTING?) SHOULD DRIVE THE ENGINEERS TO REVISIT CURRENT RISK ANALYSIS TOOLS. IT'S CLEAR THE RPN FOR THIS TYPE OF FAILURE MODE IN AN FMEA WOULD NOT QUALIFY UNDER CURRENT INDUSTRY STANDARDS.

SERVICE BRAKES
THE BRAKES ON MY TRUCK FAILED DUE TO THE BRAKE LINE CORROSION. I PUSHED ON MY BRAKES WHILE BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY LOST ALL BRAKING POWER AND HAD MY BRAKE . LUCKILY I WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. ALL OF THE BRAKE FLUID LEAKED ONTO THE GROUND, I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAD THE BRAKE LINES REPLACED. UPON SPEAKING WITH THE SERVICE ADVISOR HE SAID THAT THIS WAS COMMON AND THAT THE NEW BRAKE LINES WERE COATED AND WILL NOT RUST. NONE THE LESS THE REPAIR COST AND TOWING COST WAS QUITE EXPENSIVE.

REPORTING A CONDITION OF POOR ENGINEERING / PROTECTION REGARDING THE LOCATION OF THE TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER BEHIND THE FRONT BUMPER. THERE IS AN OPENING FOR COOLING FROM RAM AIR THAT PROVIDES NO PROTECTION FROM DEBRIS, ROCKS, BIRDS, ETC FROM DAMAGING THE FINS AND/OR THE COOLER ITSELF. IF AN EVENT OCCURS FROM ANY OR OTHER SITUATIONS ABOVE, IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE TO HAVE THE OIL LINES PUNCTURED RESULTING IN CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE TRANSMISSION DUE TO LOSS OF FLUID WITH LITTLE TO NO WARNING TO THE DRIVER.
