I NOTICED THAT THE THAT THE CONSOLE UNDER THE STEERING COLUMN STARTED TO CRACK. NOTHING HAPPENED TO CAUSE THE ISSUE AT ALL. THEN ABOUT A YEAR LATER I NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD NEAR THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ALSO BEGAN TO CRACK. OF COURSE AT THIS TIME THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, AND I WOULD HAVE TO REPAIR OUT OF POCKET IF I WANTED FIXED. THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER THINGS LIKE THE AUTOMATIC LOCK ACTUATOR MALFUNCTIONED. I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS PARTICULAR YEAR WORKMANSHIP. FOR THIS REASON, I HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED ANOTHER VEHICLE, AND DID NOT CONSIDER CHEVY AT ALL. THEY NEED TO STEP UP AND FIX THIS ISSUE. IT OBVIOUSLY IS A DEFECT THAT IS A VENDOR ISSUE. *TR

2009 CHEVROLET SILVERADO WITH 15000 MILES. TWO CRACKS ON DASH ONE BY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG, AND ONE RIGHT ABOVE GAUGE CLUSTER(SPEEDOMETER). VERY COMMON ON THESE TRUCKS. *TR
MY 2009 CHEVROLET SILVERADO WAS PARKED FOR TWO DAYS. IT WAS RUNNING PERFECTLY UP UNTIL IT WAS PARKED..AFTER TWO DAYS OF BEING PARKED IN THE RAIN,THE REAR TAIL LIGHT SUDDENLY WENT ON BY ITSELF. I OPENED THE DOOR TO THE VEHICLE TO SEE HOW THIS COULD HAPPEN AND THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT WAS ON. I PUT THE KEY INTO THE IGNITION AND IT WAS TOTALLY DEAD. I OPENED THE HOOD AND LIFTED OFF THE FUSE PANEL COVER,BECAUSE THERE WAS A STRONG SMELL OF BURNING. THEN,THERE WAS SMOKE. I IMMEDIATELY DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AND HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALER. AFTER PICKING IT UP TODAY,THEY CHARGED ME $1555 TO REPAIR,YET COULD NOT PROVIDE A LOGICAL REASON WHY THIS HAPPENED! THEY SAID"CORROSION" IN THE FUSE PANEL. HOW COULD A VEHICLE MADE IN 2009 WITH 72,000 MILES HAVE A PROBLEM SUCH AS THIS WITHOUT A MAJOR ISSUE BEING WRONG? I...
1.) I HAVE NOTICED THAT I HAVE TWO CRACKS ON MY DASH BOARD 2FT 8"INCHES APART . 2.) MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE CRACK ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG 1"INCH LONG INTO THE AIR BAG COMPARTMENT GROVE. 3.) I HAVE ONLY 2,189 MILES ON MY TRUCK. *TR
