ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
FIRST WAS THE INFOTAINMENT CENTER THAT WENT OUT AFTER THE FIRST WEEK OF OWNING AND THEY WANTED ME TO PAY HALF FOR A NEW ONE ($800). CONTACTED GM AND THEY PAID ME BACK. NEXT WAS THE BLACK COLORING ON ALL THE BUTTON RUBBING OFF. WAS TOLD TO BUY A STICKER KIT. THEN WAS THE TACK JUMPING ON IT'S OWN. THEN WAS THE ENTIRE DASH CRACKING FROM THE WINDSHIELD ALL THE WAY UP TO THE FRONT. WAS TOLD IT'S COSMETIC. I ASKED WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE AIRBAG GOES OFF AND I HAVE PLASTIC PIECES FLY AT US. FINALLY WAS THE 6L80 TRANSMISSION THAT WENT OUT. TONS OF COMPLAINTS AND GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS FOR YEARS. I NOW HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET ANOTHER $3,500. THIS THING IS A LEMON AND I CAN GET ANY HELP AND GM WON'T ISSUE RECALLS. IT'S DISGUSTING TO SEE THESE BILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES GETTING BAILED OUT AND THE CONSUMERS ARE THE ONES THAT SUFFER FOR THEM USING CHEAP PARTS.

THE DASHBOARD COVER IS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES. THE VEHICLE IS WELL MAINTAINED, GARAGED AND HAS NOT BEEN USED OFF PAVED ROADS. THE CRACKS ARE A SAFETY HAZARD IN THE EVENT OF EVEN SMALL COLLISIONS SINCE THEY CREATE SHARP CORNERS AND POINTED ENDS. IN THE EVENT OF A MAJOR COLLISION, PIECES WOULD LIKELY BECOME HAZARDOUS FLYING OBJECTS PROPELLED BY THE AIRBAGS.

I HAVE 2013 TAHOE. IT ONLY HAVE 87,500K ITS BLACK. THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED. IT JUST SHOWED UP 2 WEEKS AGO. THE VEHICLE IS KEPT GARAGE AT ALL TIME AT THE HOUSE. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE 1 1/2 YEARS AGO. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAPPEN. I KNOW A PERSON ALSO HAS A 2013 TAHOE AND HER DASHBOARD CRACKED. THEY REPLACED IT, BUT THE NEW ONE CRACKED ALSO. I HAVE A 2001 FORD F150 AND THE DASH IS NOT CRACKED. WHY IS GMC/CHEVROLET DASHBOARDS ARE CRACKED. THE DASHBOARD IS PLASTICITY THAT IS WHY IS CRACKING. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A NEW ONE. THANK YOU.

MY 2013 TAHOE HAS CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD OVER THE STEERING COLUMN AND THE PASSENGER SEAT SIDE. THERE ARE PICTURES ATTACHED. THE CRACKS JUST HAPPENED. I HAVE REPORTED THIS BEFORE, NOTHING HAPPENED. IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE. I HAVE TAKEN TO GET IT FIXED BUT COST IS OUTRAGEOUS. I HAVE ORDERED TWO DASH COVERS NEITHER MATCHED. NOW BY FRONT DOORS (BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE) PULL HANDLES ARE FALLING PART. EVERY TIME YOU PULL THE DOOR SHUT IT PINCHES YOUR FINGERS OR SLIPS AND YOU ALMOST FALL DOWN. EVERY UNSAFE. THIS WAS MY DREAM CAR. MY HUSBAND HAS OWNED SEVERAL TAHOES THAT HE USES IN IS BUILDING BUSINESS, HE DOES NOT BABY IS VEHICLES AND HIS INTERIOR COULD BE CLEANED UP AND LOOK LIKE NEW AND IT'S A 2004 WITH ALMOST 300,000 MILES ON IT. MY INTERIOR RATTLES AND LOOKS SO CHEAP. I AM 66 YEARS OLD. I CAN NOT AFFORD A NEW TAHOE OR A USED ONE THEY ARE WAY TO EXPENSIVE IF THESE PROBLEMS ARE GOING TO HAPPEN. I TOOK TO A DEALERSHIP 2 WEEKS AGO TO GET AN ESTIMATE ON THE PARTS AND LABOR. I VOTED THE PARTS QUOTE BUT HAVEN'T HEARD FROM THE LABOR. I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU HAVE TO BUY THE ENTIRE DOOR PANELS. I AM ASHAMED TO DRIVE MY CAR WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS IN IT, BECAUSE IT RATTLES AND LOOKS HORRIBLE. I AM AFRAID IT THE CRACK OVER THE STEERING MAY CAUSE SOME ELECTRICAL OR SOME OTHER PROBLEMS. I WOULD LIKE A RESPONSE TO THESE PROBLEMS. I HAVE FRIENDS WITH THE EXACT PROBLEMS. I WOULD CONSIDER BUYING ANY ELSE, BUT WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN CHEVY FANS. I DON'T KNOW NOW?

MY DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED IN TWO PLACES AS SHOWN ON THE ATTACHED PHOTOS. ONE CRACK IS NEAR THE HOUSING FOR THE AIRBAG, AND THE OTHER IS FORMING ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CRACKS RESULT IN THE DASHBOARD SHACKING ON ANY UNEVEN ROAD SURFACE, SO EVENTUALLY THE SMALLER CRACK WILL PROGRESS ACROSS THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST CHEVY DUE TO A SAFETY HAZARD FROM THIS DEFECTIVE PART. REPLACEMENT OR REPAIRS ARE ESTIMATED TO BE $1200-$2000. THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER THE COURSE OF NORMAL DRIVING.

DASHBOARD HAS BECOME CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND THE DASHBOARD ALSO HAS NUMEROUS OTHER CRACKS. THE CRACKS HAVE DEVELOPED OVER THE TIME SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN SEPTEMBER 2015. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PICTURES RELATING TO THIS ISSUE CIRCULATING ONLINE. I ALSO PURCHASED THE BEST WARRANTY GM OFFERS, INCLUDING THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY, BUT THAT DIDN'T INCLUDE THE DASHBOARD AS I WAS TOLD.

STRUCTURE
CRACKS HAVE DEVELOPED AT THE CENTER AND PASSENGER SIDE AREAS OF THE DASHBOARD AND APPEAR TO BE GROWING AS THE DASH COOLS AND WARMS. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY FOR SEVERAL DAYS PRIOR TO NOTICING THE CRACKS. THE PASSENGER SIDE CRACK, LIKE MANY OTHERS HAVE REPORTED, IS AT THE RIGHT REAR CORNER OF THE AIRBAG CONTAINMENT AREA ON THE DASH. THIS CRACK IS ESPECIALLY CONCERNING AS IT LOOKS TO BE UNDER PRESSURE AND BULGING. MY BIGGEST CONCERN AT THIS POINT IS THE AIRBAG GOING OFF PREMATURELY WHILE WE ARE DRIVING. *TR

AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY
THE DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS INCLUDING 3 CRACKS AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WHICH I BELIEVE LEADS TO A SAFETY HAZARD SHOULD THE BAG DEPLOY. IF DEPLOYED, THE SHATTERED PLASTIC WOULD BE SENT AS PROJECTILES THROUGH THE CAR RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY TO THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS. ALSO, IF THE AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED, THE PLASTIC SHARDS COULD CUT THE AIRBAGS RENDERING THEM INEFFECTIVE. I'M ASKING FOR THIS TO BE REPORTED TO GENERAL MOTORS AS A SEVER SAFETY CONCERN AND ISSUE A RECALL TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BEFORE THERE IS SERIOUS INJURY. THANK YOU. *TR
