OUR CAR HAS 86,500K MILES AND IS GARAGED. WE HAVE TWO CRACKS IN THE DASH BOARD. ONE IS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BY AIR BAG AND THE OTHER IS ON THE DRIVER SIDE OVER INSTRUMENT PANEL. MY CONCERN IS IF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG DEPLOYS IN AN ACCIDENT IT WILL BE COMPROMISED BY THE CRACK IN THE DASH BOARD LEAVING THE PASSENGER UNPROTECTED FROM THE AIRBAG. THE LATEST CRACK OCCURRED JUST THIS PAST WEEK. MY CAR WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AND I HEARD THE CRACK OCCUR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. UPON LOOKING AT THE DASHBOARD I NOTICED THE DRIVER SIDE CRACK. THIS CAN'T BE NORMAL AND IF IT IS THERE IS A SERIOUS FLAW IN THE DESIGN. PLEASE ADVISE.

2009 THE SUBURBAN HAS A CENTER MOUNTED DASH SPEAKER. THE WEIGHT OF THIS SPEAKER, OVER TIME, HAS CAUSED THE DASH TO CRACK NEAR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND THE STEERING WHEEL. I AM CONCERNED WITH THE SAFETY OF THE PASSENGER IN THE CASE THE AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED AND THE DASH EXPLODES?

AT 66,000 MILES THE AIR CONDITIONER QUIT WORKING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY FOUND THE CONDENSER HAD A LEAK AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS A MASSIVE BACKORDER ON THE PARTS NEEDED TO MAKE THE REPAIR. THEY FOUND 4 PARTS IN WISCONSIN BUT THEY WOULD NOT SELL THEM BECAUSE THEY TOO HAD A LOCAL DEMAND AND NEEDED 50 FOR THESE SAME REPAIRS. THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY. WE OWN A 2007 YUKONXL AND HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE A/C.

I HAVE A VERY HARD TIME STOPPING THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY. PEDAL WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. ABS NEVER ACTIVATES BECAUSE WHEELS WILL NOT EVEN ATTEMPT TO LOCK UP. (EXCEPT IN SNOW OR ICE) WHEN SITTING STILL PEDAL WILL PUSH ENTIRELY TO THE FLOOR. HAVE REPLACED ALL BRAKES AND ROTORS AND FRONT CALIPERS AND MASTER CYLINDER. SEEMS TO HAVE ALL THE SYMTOMS OF CAMPAIGN NUMBER 04V045000, BUT WHEN I ENTER MY VIN NUMBER, THAT RECALL DOES NOT COME UP. I REARENDED SOMEONE ABOUT A YEAR AGO ( NO DAMAGE) SINCE THEN I MAKE SURE TO LEAVE ABOUT 150 FEET BETWEEN ME AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME.

DASH IS CRACKED IN 6 DIFFERENT SPOTS; 3 OF THE CRACKS BEING AROUND THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. IF THE AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY, THE DASH WOULD SHATTER THUS CAUSING SHARP PROJECTILES TO BE DISPENSED IN THE VEHICLE CABIN POTENTIALLY CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY TO THE OCCUPANTS. THE CRACKS START DOWN WHERE THE BOLTS CONNECT TO THE BODY (THEY EXTEND FURTHER DOWN THAN WHAT CAN BE SEEN IN THE PHOTOS).

CRACKED DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN CRACKED IN TWO PLACES ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK ON MAY 8, 2017. THE CRACKS EXTEND FROM THE SEAM NEAR THE WINDSHIELD TO THE FRONT SEAM OF THE DASH BOARD. ONE IS CLOSE TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AN THE OTHER LEADS FROM THE WINDSHIELD TO THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG HOUSING. I WAS DRIVING ON A WELL PAVED, FOUR LANE ROAD WITH A CENTER TURNING LANE. THE ROAD IS WELL TRAVELLED AND WELL MAINTAINED. AS I STOPPED AT THE FIRST LIGHT, I HEARD A CRACKING AND THEN A CLICKING SOUND. THE DASHBOARD NOW VIBRATES WHILE DRIVING AND IS VISIBLY LOOSE.
