This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Heard a Loud Pop Bang noise then discovered Dash cracked in several multiple places. Currently need to have airbags attended to as when I last called when it was convenient for me to take vehicle into repair, the repair place can-??t meet my needs for time frame to repair. Am now afraid driving with all the cracks in dash but can Not be without vehicle.
Having alot of issues with the drain tubes especially with the front top tubes my floor boards are being soaked. The tubes are plastic so when and why for the drain tubes and how often should they be really be changed. The seal above driver door and passenger door in front are not always put in correctly or they move causing the water to cross over and pull into car instead of exiting. And the ac plug also problem. Certain years do not have the cabin filters.The engine light is very sensitive as well.
Dashboard is cracked on both upper corners of the passenger side of front airbag. Dash rattles and shakes when driving vehicle. Scared that the airbag will deploy!
The top cap of the dash crack behind the instrument cluster and over by the passenger airbag and then the front part cracked near the light sensor for the headlights to come
I own a 2010 Chevrolet Avalanche ltz that was purchased used in 2015 (38,000 miles with a small crack just above the air bag to the left, right at the corner of the air bag on the dash board. Since I've had the vehicle, it has cracked more over time to a longer length on the left and right corner and left of the steering column. The vehicle is up kept but the dash board keeps cracking. Im noticing the multiple vehicle Avalanche's have this same problem and why hasnt it been resolved or a recall been placed.
I have two cracks on my dashboard. One developed over the air bag on the passenger side one morning before leaving for work. The truck always sits in the shade and out of the sun...it wasnt even hot the day it happened so heat can't possibly be an issue. The second crack developed above the instrument cluster and happened during the winter....I was driving from Chicago to Wisconsin and the truck had been warm for a good hour already when I heard a pop. Looked over the dash and saw the crack!
Dashboard cracked in 2 locations, under 50,000 miles on vehicle. One crack located near passenger side air bag that could be dangerous in a crash and effect air bag deployment. Large scale of identical design defects in other similar vehicles and Chevrolet will not replace the damaged component without significant cost to owners and if replaced with only have the same problem again as flaw has not been corrected in replacement component.
The dashboard has cracked in many places leaving some pieces loose, with some of the pieces sharp. If the airbags were to deploy, those pieces could be thrown into passenger faces
Cracked upper end of dash board. Three separate cracks appeared on the upper part of the dash, one is going right across where the passenger air bag is located. This happened for no apparent reason. The vehicle had about 89000 miles on it when I first observed the issue. It rattles like crazy while driving on city roads and it is probably a mojor safety issue in the event of a air bag deployment.
