1 Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge problem

Failure Date: 05/03/2019

My dash board is cracked in two places. It cracked to the dome part over the gauges and it cracked to my passenger side airbag. I do not feel safe transporting people in the passenger side.

2 Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge problem

Failure Date: 09/19/2017

Dashboard is cracked over the airbags and over the gauges in front of the driver. Serious safety hazard if the air bags were to go off and send plastic shards flying. Dash was already cracked when I purchased the vehicle and it's scheduled to be fixed.

3 Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge problem

Failure Date: 09/01/2017

My dash split around the passenger side airbag and on the drivers side on the �hood� above the gauges. It's ridiculous how wide spread of a problem this is on these year model, yet Chevrolet charges $360 for the replacement part.

4 Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge problem

Failure Date: 12/15/2016

The dashboard has a diagonal crack from the upper left hand corner of the air bag cover toward the driver and window. It is approximately 1 inch long and . 060 wide. There is also a crack on the dash above the instrument gauges that is approximately 3 inches long and some what thin and jagged. It starts slight left of the drivers line of sight where there is a transition radius and runs toward the windshield. Both of these cracks occurred during freezing outside temperatfures.

5 Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge problem

Failure Date: 12/01/2016

The dash has cracked from the drivers side just above the gauge cluster to the passenger side airbag. The dash is cracked in 3 different locations. See attached pics.

6 Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge problem

Failure Date: 04/02/2016

Dashboard has 3 cracks. One next to passenger airbag, one that starts close to windshield and moves towards the dash gauges straight at the driver and the last one is next to the gauge crack but smaller. It seems this is a constant problem with gm. It has to be a safety issue with it being next to airbag and in front of driver as well. These cracks appear because of the cheap plastic and nothing else.

7 Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge problem

Failure Date: 05/25/2015

Vehicle was stationary. Dashboard cracked in two spots over time. Vehicle has not been in an accident. First crack was noted over the instrument panel of the vehicle's gauges that are used to determine speed, rpms, etc. Second was noted adjacent to the front passenger airbag. If the vehicle were in an accident, the cracked dashboard could puncture the airbag rendering the airbag unusable and allowing for more bodily harm and possibly fatality. Also, if the vehicle were in an accident and the airbags did deploy without being punctured, the cracked dashboard could then become shrapnel causing more bodily harm and possibly fatality to anyone that is a passenger in the vehicle. I urge the NHTSA to look into this matter and research it heavily. Chevrolet and gm are aware that this is a common issue with many of their vehicles of the '07-'11 models, yet refuse to take any corrective action. I obtained a repair estimate from a certified Chevrolet dealership for $761. 63.
