MY VEHICLE IS JUST OVER THREE YEARS OLD, JUST OUT OF THE WARRANTY AND ONLY HAS 26,500 MILES. THE DASHBOARD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IS CRACKED, EVEN THOUGH THE WINDOWS ARE TINTED AND I HAVE USED A SUN SHIELD AT ALL TIMES SINCE THE DATE OF PURCHASE. THIS I CONSIDER A HAZARD AS IT IS DIRECTLY WHERE ALL MAJOR COMPONENTS OF THE VEHICLE ARE LOCATED INCLUDING AIRBAGS AND SUCH. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST ME 1300 PLUS LABOR AS IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE TO ME AS I BELIEVE THIS CAN BE A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I NOTICED THE CRACK WHEN I WALKED PAST THE VEHICLE PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY.

THE DASH HAVE THREE CRACKS IN IT EVEN THOUGH I KEEP IT COVERED. I SEE THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME SITUATION AND YET CHEVROLET AND OR THE DEALERS REFUSE TO REPLACE IT. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST BETWEEN $200.00 TO $250.00 TO REPLACE IT. CHEVROLET KNOW OF THIS AND YET DO NOT WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. EVEN THE DEALER STATED THE THIS IS A DEFECT.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING MULTIPLE GLOW PLUG FAILURES ON MY VEHICLE. ONE RIGHT AFTER ANOTHER. IT HAS GONE TO THE DEALER EVERY SINGLE TIME FOR THE REPAIRS I EVEN ASKED THE DEALER MECHANIC IF I WAS THE ONLY ONE AND HE STATED THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHERS WITH MY ISSUE WITH FAILING GLOW PLUGS. THE DEALER HAS A FULL RECORD OF ALL THE ISSUES IV HAD AND EVERY TIME MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THEIR SHOP. SOMETHING HAS GOT TO BE DONE! SOON AS I TRY TO USE MY REMOTE START THE TRUCK STARTS THEN DIES THEN I GET A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SO I CALL ONSTAR THEY GIVE ME THE CODE AND SURE ENOUGH ITS A FAILED GLOW PLUG. THEN IM UNABLE TO EVEN USE REMOTE START FEATURES OF MY VEHICLE AT THIS POINT.

THE DASHBOARD CRACKED RIGHT NEAR AIRBAG ON PASSENGER SIDE. I DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF CLEANER TO MAKE IT CRACK AND I ALSO USE A VISOR TO COVER WIND SHIELD. I HAD THIS TRUCK FOR A YEAR AND COUPLE MONTHS. EVERY PERSON THAT I SPEAK WITH HAD SAME PROBLEM. AND THE SAME SPOT. I WAS LITERALLY JUST ON MY WAY TO DAD'S HOUSE WITH A BIRTHDAY CAKE AND I HEARD A NOISE SO WHEN I GOT TO MY DESTINATION I LOOKED AND DIDN'T NOTICE ANYTHING SO MY BOYFRIEND LOOKED AND SAW THE CRACK.

AIR BAGS
THE DASH HAS A CRACK ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THE CRACK IS COMPLETELY THROUGH THE ENTIRE PIECE OF PLASTIC SO IT MAKES ME CONCERNED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE IF IT WERE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT I AM NOT CERTAIN THAT THERE WOULDN'T BE PLASTIC FLYING THROUGHOUT THE CAB OF THE TRUCK. THE TRUCK HAS JUST OVER 60000 MILES AND WE WERE TOLD IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY THEREFORE THE ESTIMATE TO REPAIR IS $1004
