NHTSA Complaint #10994987 — 2013 GMC YUKON

I TRADED IN A GMC HYBRID JUNE 2014 & PURCHASED A 2013 GMC YUKON XL 1500 SLT. THE HYBRID I TRADED IN HAD A CRACKED DASH. I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS A RARE THING THAT HAPPENED FOR WHATEVER REASON. MY CURRENT YUKON ALSO NOW HAS A CRACKED DASH. AFTER MINIMAL DIGGING, I HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE AN ISSUE IN THEIR VEHICLES MADE BETWEEN A CERTAIN NUMBER OF YEARS. MY DASH CRACK IS AT MY AIRBAG. #1, & MOST IMPORTANT, IS THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGER. #2 IS THE FACT THAT I PAID A HUGE AMOUNT FOR THIS VEHICLE. ANY FLAWS OR ISSUES THAT ARE CAUSED BY THE MAKER SHOULD 100% BE COVERED AND REPAIRED. I HAVE AN APPT. WITH THE DEALER. LADY SAID DASH REPLACEMENT IS PROBABLY NOT COVERED AND COULD COST ME $500.00 TO REPAIR. THIS IS NOT MY FAULT. I FOUND WHERE ONLINE THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO? I AM UNABLE TO PROVIDE THE DATE IT HAPPENED. I WENT TO CLEAN IT AND NOTICED IT WAS CRACKED. TOOK IT INTO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP; AT THAT POINT IT WAS RECOMMENDED I GO TO THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED IT FROM.
