60000 miles and the dash cracked in front of the steering column from side to side.it's a safety issue because now it's cracking next to the air bag on the passenger side. Sharp piece of plastic will come flying if the air bags inflate.

While the vehicle was stationary, the dashboard cracked just above the instrument panel. There are 2 cracks. One is about 4 inches while the other is about two inches. After some research, it appears this is a very common problem with GM vehicles.

Crack in dash near instrument panel and air bag on passenger side. Crack is still getting larger. This is a safety hazard. GM should issue a recall and repair.

My 2011 Chevy Tahoe has cracks that appeared on the dashboard and just keep getting worse. It has low miles and has been kept in the garage. The drivers side air bag is also located in the dasha and I am concerned if it what will happen if it deploys.

My dashboard has cracked over the instrument panel. I have had it replaced, but I'm worried it will happen again. I have spoke to people that have had theirs replaced, but had the new one crack too. I feel if I were to ever get into an accident shards of flimsy plastic will be blown on me.

There is a recall, no GM has not issued a solution to replace the airbags. Safety issue plus dashboard cracked on passenger side at the seam where the airbag is located. Dealership does not have an answer to resolve problem.

Tahoe

  • 61,000 miles
The dash in my car cracked for no reason. What concerns me is that the crack is next to the airbag on the passenger side. If this airbag were to deploy it could cause the broken pieces of dash to turn into projectiles causing a dangerous if not deadly injury. This vehicle has never been on anything but smooth paved roads. The vehicle only has 61,200 miles on it. We were on an interstate when this occurred.

Dashboard cracks. In 2 different areas of my dash, cracks start from the front of the vehicle running back towards the front seats. The crack on the passenger side connects to the airbag compartment. If the airbag were to deploy, it seems plastic shards may become projectiles in the passenger compartment. This seems to be a common problem for this year and make vehicle, according to online posts. I have 1989, 2006, 2008 year vehicles that the dash is fully intact.

My dash board in my vehicle is cracking for no reason! it is cracking in 2 different spots. One in front of driver but the one that really concerns me is the one on passenger side. The crack goes to the air bag and I'm so scared my bag will deploy randomly like the crack appeared or if it deploys upon impact sharp hard plastic edges can be harmful! this is not just cosmetic and even if it were Chevrolet needs to be held accountable!
