“Driving back from a local ski area to home, the dash cracked right in front of my eyes. The temperature was a low of 30 degrees that day and we turned the defroster on to about 69, not liking the car hot. It goes right into the passenger airbag storage which makes me wonder if the dash will explode if the airbag deploys or it could pop the airbag before or during it's use.”
NHTSA complaint #11101957, filed 2018-06, 80,000 miles“Cracked dash, I believe it's a safety issue. If I were involved in an accident I feel it would cause shrapnel to be fly everywhere. Very sharp plastic would fly as any passenger especially if the faulty air bags went off.”
NHTSA complaint #11152073, filed 2018-11, 80,000 miles“I bought my 2010 Yukon Denali used from a local used car dealership in birmingham, al. When I purchased the vehicle the dash looked to be fine. Early in the summer I began to have cracking right above the instrument panel and quickly soon after noticed a lot of cracking around the airbags. This makes me very nervous if I were to be in an accident; what would happen with the dash pieces? They would become projectiles. After researching the internet it became apparent that this a known issue with several of the Gmc family of suvs for about a 5 year period. …”
NHTSA complaint #11114158, filed 2018-07, 125,000 miles“Got in my vehicle today and cranked it and heard a noise, didn't hear it again, so I backed up and put it in drive and started out of the parking lot, and heard this rattling noise and looked up and my dashboard had cracked and the entire middle section was moving up and down as the vehicle moved. I took it straight to the Gmc dealership for them to check, and yes he said it had cracked and it would need to be replaced, cost approximately $800. I have not heard of a dashboard on a car cracking in many years. I thought technology was to a point that this didn't happen any more. …”
NHTSA complaint #10986200, filed 2017-05, 56,454 miles“The plastic dash board has cracked. It started out small coming from the passenger side airbag and stretching to the edge of that dash panel. Now a second part of the dash has cracked by the driver side over the instrument gauge cluster. The portion of the dash that's cracked by the passenger airbag is my biggest concern as it could break off and cause sharp pieces to hit the passenger in the face of the airbag was deployed. My Gmc dealer stated my extended warranty doesn't cover this cosmetic issue and therefore I will have to come out of pocket for a portion of the cost. …”
