MY TAHOE HAS DASH CRACKS FROM POORLY CONSTRUCTED DASH RISKING DASH COLLAPSE AND CRACKS AT THE AIRBAG WITH RISK OF FLYING DEBRIS UPON RELEASE OF AIRBAG RESULTING IN INJURING OCCUPANTS. CHEVROLET NOT INTERESTED IN REPLACING. PURCHASED THE VEHICLE LIKE THIS AT 75000 MILES AND DISCOVERED THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE IN ALL THE CHEVROLET AND GM VEHICLES FROM YEARS 2007-2014.

MY DASH IS CRACKED RIGHT BY AIRBAG LIKE OTHER 1000'S OF GM TRUCKS YEARS 07-14. I HAVE 75,000 MILES ON MY TAHOE CURRENTLY AND THE CRACK APPEARED AT 70,000 MILES. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, I BELONG TO A GROUP ON FACEBOOK CALLED 07-13 GM CRACKED DASH AND SAFETY HAZARD AND EVERYDAY THERE'S NEW PEOPLE WHO JOIN THE GROUP WITH THEIR CRACKED DASHES MOST OF THEM IN THE EXACT SAME SPOT RIGHT BY THE AIRBAG AND OTHERS HAVE WHERE THE ENTIRE DASH HAS CRACKED AND MOST SEEM TO HAPPEN BETWEEN 60,000 AND 75,000 MILES. THIS HAZARD COULD BE DEVASTATING IF AN ACCIDENT WAS TO HAPPEN. MY TAHOE IS IN GREAT CONDITION GM NEEDS TO RECALL THIS HAZARD.

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.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET TAHOE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED SEVERAL TIMES WITHOUT WARNING. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP, BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL. THE MECHANIC ALSO NOTICED THAT THE FUEL PUMP, ASSOCIATED WITH THE WIRING, SEAL, WIRING HARNESS, AND FUEL SYSTEM, WAS NOT GETTING POWER. THE SPARE TIRE WAS LET DOWN TO FURTHER INSPECT THE AREA AND THE MECHANIC NOTICED THAT THE PINS WERE DISCONNECTED, AND THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF CORROSION TO THE SEALS AND WIRING NEAR THE FUEL SYSTEM CONTROL MODULE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SEAL AND SEVEN OF THE WIRES, ASSOCIATED WITH THE WIRING HARNESS, WERE PREMATURELY CORRODED. IT WAS ALSO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL SYSTEM CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09V145000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000.
