Tamara recall. I am one of several GM customers who is having problems with the dashboard cracking. I've been in contact with GM customer care and they acknowledged my issue and have offered to pay 30% of the $1,569.88 it would cost me to have my dashboard replaced. Since so many people are having this issue, I feel GM should issue a recall to repair customers dashboards at no charge.
My dash is breaking at the air bag and above the steering wheel.it started after central Chevrolet made repairs to a fan motor. I carried the truck back to the dealer.they said my warranty would not cover my dash.I had about 9000 miles left on a full coverage policy that central chev.said covered the complete truck.
My dash started cracking around the airbag and above the gauge cluster. Numerous other owners have had identical cracks which we believe could cause shrapnel in case of air bag deployment.
Dashboard on passenger side right above airbag has cracked. Noticed it when getting into vehicle after finishing work around 4:15pm. It was parked in the shade since 7:45am on a cool fall sunny day. I'm worried in the event of an accident, the airbag could possibly deploy shrapnel from the broken dash and hurt someone. Searching online shows this is a common issue with the gmt900 platform trucks from 2007-2011 and GM is not doing much if anything about it.
The dash of my 2010 Avalanche is cracked near the passenger airbag. This crack appeared overnight while the vehicle was parked in my driveway. Now the center center connection of the dash panel has cracked as well creating distracting noises. Most importantly, the cracked piece around the airbag area could become a sharp projectile if the airbag is deployed.
The dashboard on my truck has developed two cracks, one is in the hump over the instrument gauges on the drivers side and the other is on the corner of the cut out for the passenger air bag.
Drove over rrx at 7mph and then the dash cracked in 2 places, 1 from windshield to airbag opening, and one from windshield to driver console area. Pieces are now visible close to corner for air bag on passenger side
My truck dash is cracked in two places. One crack is near the passenger side airbag and the other is on top of the instrument panel on the driver side. The one above the instrument cluster is very very bad it's about 6 inches long and completely caved in. My vehicle is out of warranty because it is 4 years old but it is only 2000 miles out of warranty by mileage. There are numerous reports of other people having the exact same problems in the exact same areas.
