“I have a 2011 yukon xl, dash cracked below the airbag and was replaced under warranty in 2012. On november 13, 2016 the new dash cracked above the airbag. I am currently fighting with the dealership and Gmc corporate. I'm being told that as a second owner Gmc will not replace the dash, regardless that I've put 55,000 of the 66,000 miles on the vehicle and have owned 90% of its time on the road. From everything I've read, the dash will become a projectile if the airbag is deployed and quite possibly seriously injure any vehicle occupants. …”
NHTSA complaint #10926624, filed 2016-11, 66,000 miles“Dash is cracking over instruments and it is cracking more and more every day if air bag deploy tit will send dash fragments into the front 2 passengers face . This is happening to thousands of people with the same car . This is obviously a defect for general motors.”
NHTSA complaint #11091541, filed 2018-05, 32,300 miles“The dashboard started with a small crack a month ago and has grown into large crack that crosses the entire dash. I feel this poses a very dangerous issue if a accident occurs and the air bag inflates, this crack could cause the pieces of plastic dashboard to come apart and either damage airbag before inflation or injure passager/driver with flying plastic debris. It is also very unsightly. I shouldn't have paid over $50k for a vehicle and have issues like this occur.”
