The dashboard is cracking and im worried it will affect airbag. It continues to get looser by the day.

Dash 2 cracks. One above steering column and one at the top left of airbag.

Dashboard is cracked in two distinct places and is a safety concern because it is next to the air bags.

Dash board cracking and splitting apart in multiple locations// it started off small, and is continuing heading for the gauge cluster. ~~~on the opposite side it has completed a split from the defroster ducting to the passenger front air bag cover.

Ntsb: 2008 Chevrolet Suburban: consumer stated there were cracks in the dashboard.

Tl - the contact owns a 2008 Chevrolet Suburban. The contact stated that the dashboard developed two cracks, one was near the instrument cluster and the other was near the passenger side air bag. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 120,000. Pm.

Began noticing large cracks on dashboard, which has caused the entire front instrument panel to shift. Panel now sags 1/4" lower on right side. Cracks are also surrounding airbag locations. Should airbags deploy, the plastic could be very dangerous (ie, shrapnel) also, electric lift-gate has failed twice, falling while I am underneath it. I was not injured. Vehicle was stationary in both instances of the cracks and the failed lift-gate.

Dash board cracked while vehicle was not being driven.

The dashboard has cracked at the front left corner of the passenger airbag. It has also cracked at the instrument cluster. These cracks are extremely concerning, especially if I am in a crash. I am certain that the crack near the airbag will expand and create shards of plastic or worse, prevent the airbag from deploying properly.

There is a crack on top of the dashboard that has become progressively larger. Recently a second crack appeared right over the passenger side airbag. This may interfere with the deployment of airbags. This seems to be a recurring problem with 2007 and 2008 chevy with same dashboard (tahoe, Suburban, et al. ) models.

Two large cracks in dash, one over instrument cluster and the other where dash meets airbag. I noticed a very small crack approx four years ago and has now grown substantially. Researching this on the internet has shown this is a widespread problem with these vehicles, I am just one more complaining of a serious design flaw with possible safety ramifications.

Dash is cracking around passenger side airbag, if its deployed the hard plastic dash fragments could be deadly.

Dashboard made a popping sound while I was sitting parked in the running vehicle. Small crack appeared just above instrument cluster. Over the course of the next two years, this crack got progressively worse. An additional crack has appeared in the forward corner around the airbag towards the drivers side. Both of these cracks are large and getting larger. They are in the same place that thousands of others have experienced cracks in these vehicles. It is would be come a hazard in an accident as the dash would most certainly crack further sending shards of plastic throughout the vehicle.

Dash board has been cracking over the last 3 years. Even though a sun blocker screen has been used. Oil has been used weekly so that it does not dry out , when I wash it. But it started cracking more and more. Now the cracks are where the airbags are. I have reported it to the company last year but no response.

Dashboard has major cracks around airbags and electrical components are exposed to the sun.
