5 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 09/04/2012

Like many other Chevrolet silverado owners my dash is cracked in two places; one above the instrument cluster and the other right next to the passenger side airbag. What's the most concerning to me is the crack next to the passenger side airbag, because if it ever deployes the shrapnel from broken dash will be deadly projectiles that can seriously injure or kill the occupants. This truck has only 54000 miles. I believe general motors should recall or compensate the owners of these defective trucks and suvs. The way it happened was when I got in my truck one day I had a crack and a week or two later, I had another. Another annoying part of is my truck is it is equipped with diesel engine with increased vibration and when the weather gets cold there is loud rattling or rubbing that resonates through the whole cab because of the cracks on the dash.

6 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 06/07/2012

The dash is cracking on all 2007 up models of silverado and tahoe. I had sliced my finger when reaching for my phone is how I found out. The issue is the sharp edges are right next to air bag. So now I am worried that if I do get into accident either the air bag will get punctured and or shards of razor sharp dash are you to cut me and possibly be very severe. Please just do a google search online and you will find thousands of these type issues with the dash. Please help the dealer is not doing anything for many people and now my wife is worried to even drive in truck that I cannot replace at this time.
