AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE
MY DASHBOARD HAS SEVERAL CRACKS EXPOSING THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS WITHIN THE DASH. THESE CRACKS ARE IN VARIOUS PLACES ACROSS THE ENTIRE DASH. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW AND IT IS CURRENTLY IN EXCELLENT CONDITION (WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE DASH) I AM CONCERNED THAT IF THE AIR BAG WERE TO BE DEPLOYED THE PLASTIC DASHBOARD WOULD EXPLODE AND EXPOSE MY PASSENGERS OR MYSELF TO ADDITIONAL HAZARDS WITHIN THE VEHICLE. I AM ALSO CONCERNED THAT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IN MY DASH BOARD IS NOW EXPOSED TO ADDITIONAL HAZARDS DUE TO THE ADDITIONAL EXPOSURE TO THE SUN. I AM FILING THIS INCIDENT WITH THE HOPES THAT IT WILL HELP A RECALL TO BE ISSUED. I NOTICED THE FIRST SMALL CRACK IN 2011. I HAVE KEPT AN EYE ON IT OVER THE YEARS AND AS OF TODAY, THERE ARE EXPOSED OPENINGS IN THE DASH IN SEVERAL PLACES. UNTIL TODAY, I THOUGHT THAT I MIGHT HAVE JUST BEEN UNLUCKY, HOWEVER AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE, IT IS APPARENT THAT I AM NOT ALONE, AND THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED UNDER A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO FILE THIS REPORT ON MY BEHALF. FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME WITH ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AS NEEDED. BEST REGARDS. *TR

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.

AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE UPPER DASH PANEL CRACKED AFTER BEING PARKED OUTSIDE. I THOUGHT SOMEONE BROKE IN AND HIT IT WITH SOMETHING, IT IS CRACKED DOWN CENTER OF INSTRUMENT PANEL TOWARD WINDSHIELD THEN ACROSS TO AIR BAG COMPARTMENT. MY FEAR IS THAT IF THE AIR BAG THAT IS PENDING RECALL INFORMATION PASSENGER AIR BAG DEPLOYS AND PASSENGERS COULD BE HIT BY PLASTIC SHRAPNEL. ANOTHER CONCERN IS A CHILD GETS HAND OR ARM INJURED BY SIMPLY PRESSING TOO HARD ON FLIMSY DASHBOARD. I AM A 100% SERVICE CONNECTED COMBAT VETERAN AND NEED TO SELL TRUCK TO PURCHASE A VAN FOR TRANSPORTATION. THE CRACKED DASH IS HINDERING THE SALE AT A DECENT PRICE. THE DEALER SAID REPAIR IS AROUND $1200 AND I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY LAYING AROUND ANYWAY IF I AM UNABLE TO SELL IT.
