Five problems related to carrier/rack have been reported for the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The dash on my 2009 Chevrolet Silverado has cracked around the passenger side air bag. This conserns me as if the air bag deploys this will cause pieces of the dash to injure the person it is supposed to protect. There is numerous information on the internet with people with the same problem. I took this to the Chevrolet dealer I bought the vehicle from in foley al and they refuse to do anything about it.
Crack developed in dash at app 50k miles next to passenger airbag. Crack has continued to expand since.
While driving down the highway, heard a noise and then noticed the dash above the airbag had developed an obvious crack that is approximately 1 inch long. Upon closer inspection of the dash, noticed that there is also a hairline crack in the dash above the airbag approximately 4 inches to the right of the first noticed crack.
Several cracks in my dash (4-5). One is at the corner of the passenger airbag. The dash is so brittle it cracks from just closing the door. I'm afraid what might happen if I'm in an accident and broken dash pieces go flying throughout the cab. This is no doubt a safety concern! not to mention an eye sore and resale killer. This started a few years ago and continues to get worse.
My chevy truck is a c1500. I also have a crack in the dash above my passenger side air bag on the dash. I noticed it when my truck only had 10,000 miles on it. It's not from the sun because my truck stays in the garage. It seems there are many of us that has this issue.
