“I got in my car to take my kids to school and notice the hub above the steering wheel was cracked going down and connected to a second spot that was also cracked in a prong pattern. It was not cracked the afternoon before when I picked up my children from school.”
NHTSA complaint #10713901, filed 2015-04, 95,200 miles“Over a month ago I noticed a huge crack above steering column, the raised part. Knowing it was not a user error, I was planning on contacting Gmc. Last week I noticed another crack on left side of air bag. I decided to look online and see if this happened to others. And yes it has. There are several years affected, 1993, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011. There are thousands of Gmc owners who have contacted Gmc as I have just done, without assistance. No recalls have been issued. This is a huge safety issue and I'm very very upset, frustrated and disappointed in Gmc. …”
