Consumer Description

MULTIPLE DASHBOARD CRACKS IN THE PROXIMITY OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG COULD CAUSE DEPLOYMENT FAILURE DURING AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. THIS VEHICLE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS COMPROMISED BY THESE CRACKS. THOUSANDS OF GM TRUCKS ARE AFFECTED BY CHEAP DASHBOARD MATERIALS THAT CRACK WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OR YEARS OF SALE. THIS VEHICLE HAS MULTIPLE CRACKS. MANY WEBSITES AND MULTIPLE SOCIAL MEDIA SITES HAVE BEEN ACTIVELY DISCUSSING THIS PROBLEM YET GM IS IGNORING THE CUSTOMERS. WE URGE NHTSA TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND FORCE GM TO REPLACE THESE DANGEROUS AND DEFECTIVE DASHBOARDS. GM CONTINUES TO EXHIBIT OUTRAGEOUS AND IRRESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOR EVEN AFTER MULTIPLE RECALLS FOR SO MANY OTHER PROBLEMS. *TR
