There is a crack in the dash at the site of the passenger airbag. After further research, it appears that it is very common. I am afraid this area of the dash will fail upon airbag deployment causing injury. I do not know when the crack started.

I bought my 2011 Silverado with only 36,000 miles on it, before it ever reached 40,000 the dash cracked in the corner of the passenger airbag, and now above the odometer. I'm concerned for the safety of myself and my family if the airbag was to go off and send shards of sharp plastic though the vehicle. I would appreciate GM recalling and fixing the issue that they are already aware of.

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.

There is a crack on the dash that runs along the compartment housing the passenger side air bag. This crack could potentially tear the airbag upon deployment making it useless in the event of a crash. The dealership informed me this was a common occurrence and it could be replaced but that the replacement may crack due to body shifting during operation and sun exposure. Now the dash is beginning to crack in other places (stress fractures). Not sure when these cracks started whether the vehicle was in motion or stationary.

Dash board is cracked around airbag. Airbag deployment would mean huge shards of plastic flying around cab. Potentially penetrating skin and eyes. Huge pieces. This is not safe.
