DASH BOARD IS CRACKING BY AIR BAG AND CONTINUES TO CRACK ABOVE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. CONCERNED ABOUT SHRAPNEL IF AIR BAG WHERE TO DEPLOY CAUSING MORE INJURY. *TR

I NOTICED WHEN I GOT INTO MY VEHICLE THAT THERE WAS A CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH, RIGHT ABOVE THE AIRBAG. THIS CAN'T BE SAFE! IF THE AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY, THEN WHAT IS TO STOP THE REST OF THE DASH TO EXPLODE APART LIKE SHRAPNEL CAUSING INJURY TO SOME IN THE VEHICLE. I AM AFRAID FOR MY PASSENGERS SAFETY! ABOUT A WEEK LATER FOUND ANOTHER CRACK ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE DASH. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHERS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEMS! ALSO, THEIR PICTURES POSTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA SHOW THE CRACKS ARE IN THE SAME LOCATIONS AS THAT OF MY DASH. I HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT THIS PROBLEM IS DUE TO POOR DESIGN AND CHEAP CONSTRUCTED PARTS. GM SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND RECTIFY THESE ISSUES BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INJURED OR EVEN WORSE. HERE IS A LINK TO THE SOCIAL...

CRACKS WITH SHARP EDGES AROUND PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND DASH. *TR

SAFETY CONCERN WITH CRACKS IN DASH AROUND PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2007 (NEW BODY STYLE) CHEVY SILVERADO LS, 4.3L HAS CRACKED, RANDOMLY, RIGHT ABOVE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. THERE WAS NOTHING TO CAUSE THIS CRACK, IT JUST APPEARED. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, MANY OTHER GM OWNERS, RANGING FROM SILVERADOS TO TAHOES TO ESCALDES, ALSO HAVE CRACKS IN THEIR DASH, IN THE SAME SPOT, SOME WORSE THAN OTHERS. MY MAIN CONCERN IS IT CRACKING MORE, AND ALSO IF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY, THE POSSIBILITY OF THE DASH BREAKING APART AND POSSIBLY THROWING SHARDS OF PLASTIC AT ME OR PASSENGER. NOT ONLY IS THE SAFETY AN ISSUE, BUT THE APPEARANCE IS AN ISSUE, SINCE ITS A RATHER LARGE CRACK, IT LOOKS UNSIGHTLY. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME, HOPEFULLY SOMETHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS POPULAR DEFECT THAT HASN'T BEEN ADDRESSED BY GM YET. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE DOOR CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND RUNNING. BURNED WIRE AND SMOKE EVIDENT. *TR

THE DASH BOARD CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I WOULD THINK THIS WOULD AFFECT HOW THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS. GM WILL NOT REPLACE THE DASH, ONLY COVER HALF THE EXPENSE. THEY KNOW THIS IS AN ISSUE AS THEY HAVE ADDED REINFORCEMENTS IN THE AREA OF THE DASH THE CRACKS. *TR

THE CONSUMER CALLED ONSTAR TO TELL THEM THAT THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. THE OPERATOR ASKED THE CONSUMER WERE THERE ANY LIGHTS ON THE DASH. THE CONSUMER STATED THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON. THE OPERATOR ATTEMPTED TO INSTRUCT THE CONSUMER ON HOW TO RESET THE LIGHT, AND STATED IF IT DIDN'T CLEAR WITHIN TWO DAYS TO CALL BACK.

WATER COMES INTO VEHICLE THROUGH THIRD STOP LIGHT AND CAUSES ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WHICH MAKES SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT TO TURN AND THIS CAUSES VEHICLE TO SHUT DOWN MY CONCERN IS AIR BAG FAILURE TO DEPLOY OR NOT TO DEPLOY WHEN NEEDED. *TR

I TOOK MY NEW CHEVY TRUCK INTO THE DEALER FOR SOME NEW FACTORY EQUIPMENT (BUG DEFLECTOR AND BED LINER) TO BE INSTALLED BY THEM. WHILE THE DEALER HAD MY 2007 CHEVY TRUCK THEY LOADED 2008 POWER TRAIN SOFTWARE INTO IT'S COMPUTER WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. THE 2008 SOFTWARE CHANGED THE WAY MY TRUCK RUNS. THE POWER TRAIN NOW HAS A SPEED LIMITER ON IT AND THE STABILITY CONTROL WAS CHANGED. IT WILL NOT GO AS FAST IT AS USE TO GO BEFORE THE CHANGE. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER AND GM THEY WOULD NOT PUT MY TRUCK BACK THE WAY IT WAS AS WHEN I BOUGHT IT. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE REASON WAS THE GOODYEAR TIRES AND THE TRUCK DESIGN WERE UNSAFE WITHOUT THE 2008 SOFTWARE INSTALLED AND WOULD NOT CHANGE MY TRUCK BACK TO THE 2007 CONFIGRATION . I HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANY RECALL OR SAFETY NOTICES ABOUT...
