2011 GMC YUKON XL Structure Problems

The contact owns a 2011 GMC Yukon XL. The contact stated that while attempting to refuel the vehicle at the gas station, fuel was leaking out of the fuel tank. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where the vehicle was lifted. The mechanic then informed the contact that the fuel pump was rusted and that the frame were severely rusted. The contact was informed that the frame was fractured and had holes and was being held up by the body. Additionally, the mechanic informed the contact that the alignment had failed due to the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The used car dealer where the vehicle was purchased was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 271,000.

THE DASH OF MY YUKON XL 2011 IS CRACKING. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND GMC IS NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. ALSO, THE BUTTONS ON THE A/C ARE WEARING OFF. I THINK FOR WHAT WE PAY FOR THE VEHICLES WE SHOULD HAVE BETTER QUALITY. I HAVE 2 SISTERS THAT ALSO DRIVE THE SAME VEHICLE AND BOTH OF THEIR DASHES ARE CRACKED ALSO. GMC WANTS US TO PAY TO HAVE THEM REPLACED. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING I NOTICED IN THE REFLECTION OF MY WINDSHIELD A CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION I SAW THAT THERE WAS A CRACK THAT RAN FROM THE VENT ON THE DASHBOARD UP TOWARD THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AS THIS VEHICLE IS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD, GOOD CONDITION, WITH 31000 MILES ON IT. IT IS MY CONCERN THAT THIS CRACK AS OTHERS UNLESS FIXED WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD AND BECOME A LARGER SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. *TR

THE VEHICLE'S DASHBOARD NEAR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG CRACKED AND THEN CREATED A HOLE WITH NO PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO IT BEING DONE. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OTHER REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO SIMILAR VEHICLES BY OTHER CUSTOMERS. THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS AS IT LEAVES SHARP ANGLES AND COULD SERIOUSLY INJURE A PASSENGER IF THE AIRBAG SHOULD DEPLOY. THERE IS A SERIOUS FLAW IN THE DASHBOARD THAT WARRANTS IMMEDIATE FIXES BY GMC. *TR
