“We have 3 GM suburban and Gmc yukons that all have cracked dashes. I find it hard to believe that all 3 of ours have cracked dashes. There has got to be a problem with the dash board and GM needs to step up and do something about this before some one gets hurts. The dash boards all cracked about 10 months ago .”

“On 06/07/2019 I purchased my 2008 Gmc Yukon slt in a private sale with 43k miles on it hardly driven, a well taken care of SUV no cracks in the dash now a month and 1000 miles later I am driving and notice it has a crack in the driver's side of the dash 4 long near the seam in front of the instrument cluster, and a crack in the passenger's side of the dash 2 long at the corner of the airbag. I immediately saw this as a safety issue. …”

“I have two cracks in the dash one on the drivers side behind the steering wheel and the other leading to the passenger side air bag. This seems to be a common issue with Gmc vehicles. I have addressed the issue with GM. To no relief.”

NHTSA complaint #10714806, filed 2015-05, 135,000 miles

“I have a 2008 Gmc Yukon slt that I bought in feb of 2015 with 94,000 miles. I have serviced it regularly from day 1 and even paid it off in 2.5 years. As soon as I paid it off, the very next month, my engine started making a weird noise once in a while w/ no check engine light so no one could tell what was wrong. At that same time my service stabilitrak/service traction control would ding about 40 times in a row. I serviced the 2 and it did not help for more than 2 days and it started again. This time the check engine light came on codes were for new plugs and fuel filter. Still didn't help. …”

NHTSA complaint #11133026, filed 2018-10, 134,000 miles

“2008 Yukon 5 cracks across the entire dashboard within 30 days, 3 cracks have formed in 72 hours. One crack appeared while I was at work, in the span of 3 hours. This truck has been regularly maintained and kept in a garage for majority of its life. The cracks are forming so fast that pieces will begin shattering and falling inside. Two cracks have formed next to the passenger side airbag, that has takata inflators- exciting times! My dealership has informed me that Gmc will not compensate or assist in remedying this issue- but the dealer will be happy to replace the dash for $1300.00.”
