Dash pad has cracks in it. If air bags were to be deployed pieces of dash could become projectiles. Don't know when it cracked. I noticed it when I was walking around to the passenger side. My truck sits in a garage. It only has 60000 miles on it and I bought it new in 2011.

My vehicle is just over three years old, just out of the warranty and only has 26,500 miles. The dashboard on the drivers side is cracked, even though the windows are tinted and I have used a sun shield at all times since the date of purchase. This I consider a hazard as it is directly where all major components of the vehicle are located including airbags and such. I was told it would cost me 1300 plus labor as it is out of warranty. This is unacceptable to me as I believe this can be a huge safety issue. I noticed the crack when I walked past the vehicle parked in my driveway.

Dash is cracked at the upper left corner of the passenger air bag and on top of dash. I'm concerned that air bag deployment may be affected. Also, pieces of the dash may become air born in the event of an air bag deployment.

My 2012 Silverado ls has 22,000 miles. It is a shame because it is a beautiful truck, but the frame looks terrible. It is not a little rust here and there. The rust is literally all over the frame. There is more of the frame with rust than without. The frame is very easy to see. Unfortunately for GM, my truck is a rolling billboard and the rust is getting worst every year.

Here is a brief history of the issues involving the 1012 Chevrolet Silverado lt Texas edition after the purchase date of September 3, 2012. First, I noticed that it has increasingly become more difficult to open the front passenger window from the driver side master control unit around 2014. Now, I have to press hard several times to open the window. Second, the outside moldings of the door panels are falling off starting in mid-2014. Third, I have started to hear popping noises coming from the ball joints when the steering wheel is turned to the left or right at a very low speed starting the beginning of 2014. These issues were reported to the Chevrolet customer service at the GM headquarters in August 2015. On September 4, 2015, the truck was finally diagnosed by the Chevrolet dealership service department that sold the pickup. The invoice dated September 4, 2015 indicates the lower ball joints worn with play, door moldings falling off, and the driver's master switch shorted.

Truck was parked when I got back into it the dashboard was cracked

- Donaldsonville, LA, USA

I had driven back home from Tahoe around 6:00pm and the vehicle was parked for 2 hours when we attempted to open the slide on the 5th wheel. I found the slide on the trailer would not open due to a lack of power on the 5th wheel. At this time the pigtail was still connected to the truck. I disconnected the pigtail from the truck and plugged the trailer into a 50 amp plug and the slide opened normally. I thought it was strange that the battery had discharged after such a short time. Around 10:45pm my girlfriend screamed the trailer was on fire and when I reached the backdoor the entire trailer was engulfed and the rear of the truck was already on fire. Both the vehicles were completely destroyed along with a barn that was approximately10 feet away suffering major damage.

There is a very high pitch noise the is emitted from behind the dash. This noise is distracting to the point that my wife can not ride in the truck let alone drive it. I have taken the truck to the dealer and was told by the service department that General Motors is aware of this noise and it is acceptable.
