STRUCTURE:BODY
AT 60,000 MILES VEHICLE DEVELOPED A CRACKED DASH NEAR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. APPROXIMATELY 4,000 MILES LATER A SECOND CRACK HAS APPEARED FORWARD OF THE GAUGE CLUSTER AND IS GROWING. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN IF PIECES OF SHARP PLASTIC FLY LOOSE AND CAUSE INJURY.

THERE ARE 2 CRACKS ON THE DASH, ONE ON EACH SIDE WHICH COULD CAUSE HARM/DEATH TO THE PASSENGERS BECAUSE OF FLYING PLASTIC SHOULD AN AIRBAG DEPLOY. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND GM WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS. IT WAS FIRST NOTICED IN APRIL 2015 AND THE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 32,000 MILES.

DRIVING ALONG ONE DAY AT 45 MPH AND THE DASHBOARD JUST CRACKED. MINE HAS CRACKED OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I HAVE A FRIEND WHO HAS THE SAME CRACK AS WELL AS A CRACK OVER THE AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE CRACKED DASH IS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED, I AM ALSO CONCERNED WHAT MAY HAPPEN IF THE AIR BAG GOES OFF WITH WHAT IS OBVIOUSLY A BRITTLE DASH.

THE DASHBOARD HAS TWO CRACKS. THE FIRST CRACK, EXTENDING FROM FRONT TO BACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FROM THE FRONT EDGE OF THE DASHBOARD BACK INTO THE COVER (LEFT FRONT CORNER) OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG, APPEARED THE WEEK OF JUNE 29, 2015. THE SECOND CRACK BEGAN APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS LATER ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF DASHBOARD. IT STARTED ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE DOME PORTION COVERING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CRACK PROGRESSED APPROXIMATELY 1 1/2 INCHES AND SPLIT INTO A "V" SHAPE AND IS CONTINUING UP THE DOME. OUR SAFETY CONCERNS ARE TWOFOLD. FIRST, IS THE CRACK AT THE AIRBAG GOING TO INTERFERE WITH IT'S PROPER FUNCTION OR PIERCE IT UPON DEPLOYMENT. SECOND, IF WE'RE INVOLVED IN A WRECK, WILL THE SHARP POINTS OF PLASTIC DASH INVOLVED IN THE DRIVER'S SIDE CRACK CAUSE INJURIES IF THE FORCES OF A COLLISION TURN THEM INTO PROJECTILES. THIS PROBLEM WITH GM/CHEVY DASHBOARDS IS WIDESPREAD AND IT MUST BE ADDRESSED AND RECTIFIED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INJURED DUE TO THE COMPANY'S NEGLIGENCE.

MULTIPLE CRACKS ON TOP OF DASHBOARD ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES NEAR AIRBAG. IF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY DUE TO A CRASH, THERE WILL BE MULTIPLE PIECES OF THE DASHBOARD BROKEN THAT COULD INHIBIT THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAGS OR CAUSE PLASTIC PIECES TO IMPALE A PASSENGER. THE DEALERSHIP HAS DECLINED TO REPAIR UNDER A GM RECALL.

I HAVE TWO CRACKS THAT APPEARED ON MY DASHBOARD FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. ONE IS ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE OTHER IS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AT THE EDGE OF THE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT. THE ONE BY THE AIRBAG IS THE SHAPE OF A TRIANGLE AND A WHOLE PIECE OF THE DASH FELL OFF. I BELIEVE IT IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED IT WOULD VERY LIKELY CATCH ON THE MISSING PIECE OF DASH AND RIP. IT SEEMS THAT IT COULD ALSO CAUSE THE DASH TO CRACK FURTHER AND PIECES OF THE DASH COULD GO FLYING AT A PASSENGER IF THERE WERE AN ACCIDENT. I TOOK IT TO TWO DIFFERENT CHEVY DEALERS AND NEITHER OF THEM WOULD ADMIT IT WAS DANGEROUS AND WANTED TO CHANGE OVER 800 DOLLARS TO REPAIR IT.

STRUCTURE, AIR BAGS
THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING IN SEVERAL PLACES. ONE LOCATION IS RIGHT ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THE OTHER IS AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT COULD RESULT IN PLASTIC BREAKING FREE AND BECOME FLYING PROJECTILES WITHIN THE CABIN. LIKE MANY OTHER VEHICLES WITH THIS SAME ISSUE, THE VEHICLE IS WELL MAINTAINED, GARAGE KEPT, AND IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. THE WAY THAT GM DESIGNED THE DASHBOARDS AND THE MATERIALS USED FOR THE DASHBOARDS ARE THE REASON FOR THIS ISSUE. BOTH GM AND OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAVE DENIED ME ANY ASSISTANCE IN HAVING THE DASHBOARD REPLACED. *TR

DASH PANEL BEGAN CRACKING ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND SPREAD BOTH WAYS TO DRIVERS SIDE AND ALL THE WAY TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. IT IS NOW CRACKING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE AIRBAG. HUGE SAFETY ISSUE IF THE AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY! PANEL SHARDS WOULD EITHER POP AIRBAG OR STAB A PASSENGER.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
2010 CHEVROLET TAHOE LTZ CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD DRIVE BUT IN A JERKING MOTION. WE HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO OUR MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE AS A ENGINE CONTROL MODULE DTC P2135, THE REDUCED ENGINE POWER DISPLAYED AND THE TRACTION OFF ALSO DISPLAYED. THE MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO CLEAN OUT THE THROTTLE BODY TO REMOVE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I THEN CALLED MY LOCAL CHEVROLET/GM SERVICE CENTER IN EAST HARTFORD, CT AND THEY SAID THAT THE ITEM IS COVERED UNDER A SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT #11273 FOR A PERIOD OF 10 YEARS OR 120,000 MILES BUT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNTIL THE LIGHT COMES BACK ON. HE INFORMED ME THAT IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN, THOUGH. I THEN CALLED CORPORATE GM AND THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO EXCEPT WAIT FOR THE ISSUE TO ARISE. THE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT THE ENGINE SPEED WOULD REDUCE TO 50MPH BUT IT ISN'T A SAFETY CONCERN. IF THIS CAR IS TRAVELING AT 65-70MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND REDUCES SPEED TO 50MPH WITH NO BRAKE LIGHT HOW IS THIS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE??? NEEDLESS TO SAY, THEY SAID THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING THEY COULD DO SO NOW I HAVE TO HAVE MY WIFE AND 2 KIDS DRIVE AROUND IN A VEHICLE THAT WE KNOW HAS AN ISSUE BUT CANNOT NOT GET IT FIXED PROPERLY UNTIL IT OCCURS AGAIN. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES AND IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS A SAFETY RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED. CASE #[XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

HI THE DASHBOARD HAS 2 CRACKS IN IT. ONE ON DRIVER SIDE AND ONE ON PASSENGER WHERE THE AIRBAG WOULD DEPLOY FROM. I FEEL IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE WIT MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR IF AN ACCIDENT WAS TO OCCURS THE PLASTIC DASH BEING CRACKED COULD CUT OR KILL ONE OF MY CHILDREN. THANKS *TR
