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.
The dash is cracking near the instrument cluster and near the air bag. I use a sunscreen, but this seems to be a common issue. This is too expensive and well taken care of a vehicle. I worries me that there may be some safety issues with a cracked plastic dash in case of accident.
Takata recall the dash is cracked in two locations, at passenger airbag and above the instrument cluster for no apparent reason. Vehicle is in excellent condition otherwise. There may be a safety issue due to the proximity to the passenger airbag.
Takata recall. For the past year plus, the dealer (paradise/Cadillac) in temecula ca. Has refused to repair the airbag and inflator on recall. My vehicle has been given high priority because of its age and high temperature where I live. I stop driving it because of fear for myself and family. It only has 24,500 miles in it.
"takata recall" airbag light takes over instrument information cluster.theres no information on when to be repaired or when the airbag will be replaced.2) dashboard cracked and growing near passenger airbag.I never used armor all etc...concerned about the wiring underneath.truck currently has 80000 miles.normal use
Dash has several cracks through out, above the glove box and now it's above the radio. It started out with a small crack above the glove box and continuing in other locations. A couple of the cracks happen while the truck was parked.
The dash in my 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 has a crack in the dash at the top left hand corner of the passenger air bag. My opinion is that this could cause a safety issue. Either the air bag could fail to work properly or potentially be damaged. Chevrolet has known about this issue and has chosen not to voluntarily take care of it.
Dashboard cracking and breaking around airbag. Possible plastic shrapnel in event of airbag deployment. In my time of ownership exposure to elements has always been limited with use of covered parking or sunshade. Chemicals have never been introduced to the affected area.
Dashboard has cracked at upper left hand corner of passenger air bag and above driver side instrument panel. Crack at air bag is worrisome in event that it may effect air bag deployment.

I own a 2011 Silverado. It has the cracks in the passenger airbag area, and above the gauge cluster. Of course after seeing all the other cracked dashes. It really makes me unhappy that this is not already a recall or taken care of. One day I got in my vehicle and saw both cracks, and it happened 2 days after someone told me it is just a matter of time before it cracks. I really would like it replaced.
Dashboard cracks at the passenger side air bag. This was repaired under warranty in 2014. The dash has cracked again in the same place. Should the passenger side air bag deploy, I feel it could be a serious safety issue.
The dashboard has cracked on the passenger side of the vehicle, running from the top left corner of the passenger side airbag to the right edge of the central air vent. I am concerned that this crack could jeopardize the efficacy of the passenger airbag should deploy, whether the crack prevents the airbag from fully opening and/or puncturing the airbag once it does open. Furthermore, shards of the dashboard could cause harm if the airbag does deploy. I am not certain when the crack first developed, but noticed it earlier today.
The dashboard has cracked in 2 separate places due to cheap supplies. One of the cracks is near the airbag so if the airbag were to deploy parts of the broken dashboard would be thrown into the passenger and cause injury.
Dash cracks at passenger side air bag is this a problem if the bag went off will the broken piece of dash board go with it. Also loose body side moldings had repaired under warranty and came off again luckily it didn't come off while driving.
