AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I'M NOT SURE EXACTLY WHEN THE FIRST CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD APPEARED BUT I NOTICED IT ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THEN ON 05/16/17, I CRANKED THE CAR, PULLED OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE AND STARTED DOWN THE PARKING GARAGE RAMP. THAT'S WHEN I HEARD A LOUD CRACKING NOISE. SO I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH. AFTER I PULLED OUT AND STOPPED AT THE RED LIGHT I LOOKED AND THE DRIVER SIDE DASH ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL HAD A LARGE V SHAPED CRACK IN IT. BECAUSE THE DASH IS BROKEN ON BOTH SIDES IT BOUNCES UP AND DOWN VIOLENTLY WHILE DRIVING. WHEN I GOT HOME I WAS TAKEN PICTURES AND NOTICED THAT THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD HAS CRACKS ON BOTH SIDES. AT LEAST 10 CRACKS. IT LOOKS AS IF THE DASHBOARD WAS HIT BY AN EARTHQUAKE. AFTER SOME RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF GM CARS. IT DEFINITELY IS A DEFECTIVE PART BUT EVEN MORE I'M CONCERNED WITH THE FACT THAT THIS COULD CAUSE THE AIR BAGS MALFUNCTION IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE ENTIRE DASH WOULD EXPLODE.

THE AC CONDENSER HAS A LEAK AND THERE IS NO OPTION FOR A REPLACEMENT CONDENSER AS THEY ARE ON NATIONAL BACKORDER WITH NO ETA AND COULD TAKE UP TO 120 DAYS TO GET A REPLACEMENT PART. SO GM EXPECTS MY FAMILY OF 5 WHICH INCLUDES 3 KIDS UNDER THE AGE OF 8 TO DRIVE A VEHICLE FOR AN ENTIRE SUMMER IN SOUTH CAROLINA WITH NO AC.
