Consumer Description

THE INTERIOR DASH COMPONENTS HAVE CRACKING PROBLEMS. MY TRUCK NOW HAS A BROKEN CLIP WHICH IS A SIGN THE WHOLE THING IS ABOUT TO CRACK LIKE SO MANY OTHERS. ONCE IT CRACKS THESE PRICES CAN BECOME PROJECTILES IN AN ACCIDENT. I UNDERSTAND THE TRUCK IS 5 YEARS OLD BUT MY CONCERN REPLACING THE DASH IS THAT GM HAS NOT USED A NEW MATERIAL AND THE SAME THING HAPPENS AGAIN AND AGAIN.
