3 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 05/01/2017

My dashboard has cracked around the passenger side airbag and on top of the driverside dash. I am afraid that the cracks around the airbag are a safety hazard for my family. Both cracks are growing rapidly. Vehicle has less than 44,000 miles and is in excellent condition.

4 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 11/22/2016

The dash of the vehicle has cracked around the forward edge of the passenger-side airbag. I am concerned that pieces of the dash may become missile hazards in the event of an air bag deployment. This vehicle has only been subjected to highway mileage. A cursory search of the internet for causes of the crack revealed that this is an on-going issue for this model vehicle that is being ignored by the gm corporation.

5 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 10/11/2014

Takata recall - in addition to the widespread airbag safety issue, I am among the many, many other 2010 GMC sierra truck owners who have a cracked dash. The crack begins on thefront, left side of passenger side airbag compartment, and extends to the front of the dash (towards the windshield). With so many complaints about this, coupled with the fact that this could potentially be a fatal defect, one would think that an NHTSA sponsored investigation and a recall would have already been issued by now! I mean, it's only been 6 years!!!!.
