1 Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge problem

Failure Date: 11/15/2015

One morning, my daughter and I was getting in the truck so I could drop her off at school. We got about a mile down the road and started hearing a rattle. Once we made it to a stop sign, I looked around in the truck and found the problem. There are 2 cracks going down the right side of the gauge cluster on the dash. As well as another crack on the left back corner of the airbag on the passenger side dash. I'm very particular about my truck. I keep it very clean. I've never placed anything on the dash/window area to cause the cracks. That morning it was cold out, probably around 30 degrees. It was very discouraging that when I called to ask about the replacement, (during that time, I still had my warranty from where I had bought the vehicle) I was told that it would not be covered, and would need to be paid out of pocket. I was raised as a chevy man, I believe they make amazing vehicles. For this not to already have been an issue to had fixed due to the large amount of people having the same issue is outrageous. It is obviously a safety issue. Since the entire center dash is weak from being cracked on each side, I feel it could potentially cause the airbag to fail in the front or even worse is injure who is sitting in the middle seat in the back. (daughter sits in that spot due to age. ) please, do something to fix this issue. It's clear that it's a problem and it could potentially save a life by being proactive about the situation. Chevy has always been dependable, don't let your loyal customers down.

2 Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge problem

Failure Date: 07/24/2014

I own a 2011 silverado. It has the cracks in the passenger airbag area, and above the gauge cluster. Of course after seeing all the other cracked dashes. It really makes me unhappy that this is not already a recall or taken care of. One day I got in my vehicle and saw both cracks, and it happened 2 days after someone told me it is just a matter of time before it cracks. I really would like it replaced.
