Rear control arms were rusted out and fell off the frame. Additionally with that happening the rear drive shaft was pulled out from transmission and could cause a vehicle to flip. Upon further investigation body frame was extremely rusted for a truck this age. 85450 mes on it.

2 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 01/05/2020

There is a problem with gm vehicles developing cracked dashboards including my own. The cracks are happening around/above the instrument cluster and more importantly, around the airbag. I am concerned that the defected dashboard would cause some sort of airbag puncture if it were deployed causing serious injury. Should someone get killed or seriously injured before this matter is taken into consideration. I own a 2012 chevy Avalanche. I have developed the same cracks just as so many other gm vehicle owners.

3 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 05/10/2016

Dash board creaked above air bag.
