36 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 12/01/2011

I have the inevitable cracked gmt900 dashboard by the airbag cover. There are 2 cracks in the dash where the airbag cover is held in place as well as another crack above the steering wheel hump. I've contacted gm regarding this and they have not offered to repair it. There should definitely should be a recall, I don't exactly know how unsafe the cracks are by the airbag cover but essentially every 2007-2013 tahoe, Yukon, escalade, suburban, sierra, etc. . . Has or will have the exact same cracks.

37 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 07/29/2011

I first noticed a crack on the dash up by the passenger air bag area. Now it has cracked all on top where the speedometer and gas and tempreature panel is. I'm a person that takes great care of my vehicle and am worried that this can create a much bigger problem like failure in the readings on the instument panel or even in an event of an accident that if I have a passenger the air bag will not deploy. I hope that I may get some help with this. I would understand if I had been in an accident ,these things happen. But thank god I have not and so this is of some concern.

39 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 05/14/2011

The SUV has a few cracks in the dash board next to the airbag section and instrument cluster. My daughter serverly cut her finger on the cracked dash by accident. Her finger got infected and she couldnt use her hand for week. Also my concern is if an accident occurs and the airbag is deployed this could cause the plastic pieces to cut the airbag. The pieces of the dash could also break off and become airborne and injure me or a passenger. I have researched this issue and there are plenty of complaints (thousands) about the same thing. I feel that gm should put out a warning about this and replace the dash of every vehicle affected.

40 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 02/21/2011

There is a significant crack in the dash connecting the air bag component to the body. The first crack was found back in February and now there are 2 more cracks - one more on the air bag connection and one above the cluster dome. My fear is that if the airbag is to deploy, the sharp edges resulting from the defective dash would result in significant injury even if it is a minor crash. I believe this is a huge safety issue.

42 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 01/26/2011

Dashboard has cracked significantly in two locations one of which is by the front passenger airbag. Also, the interior and exterior door handles have peeled and cracked. Specifically, the interior handles have peeled to the point of causing damage to the driver/passenger hands upon usage.

43 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 08/01/2010

Sharp cracks appearing in dash next to passenger air bag and left rear top of the instrument panel.

44 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 07/31/2010

We purchased this vehicle used in July 2010 from a dealership. The inside front door handles had started to peel. The dealership was going to replace it when we took the vehicle back, but after leaving they have been difficult to deal with. The handles are peeling more and cutting our hands. The back outside door handles are coming off and the passenger side will not open from the outside. The front dash is cracked and pieces are coming off. The rear windshield wiper fell off. The arm rest on the back seats are coming off. We take good care of our vehicles. This is a poorly made vehicle. Something needs to be done.

45 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2010

Dash cracked and broken. Worried about splintered pieces and speaker coming off in event of an accident.

46 Dashboard Crack problem

Failure Date: 05/01/2009

I noticed an approximate 4'' crack on my dash between the windshield and steering wheel hump. I then noticed a similar crack emerging near the top left portion of the front passenger side air bag. I thought maybe the employees where I get my car wash were applying too much pressure. However, after looking online to buy a new dash, I found that I was among many GMC owners that have the same issue. I dont think it is a coincidence that we all have the same cracks, in the same location on the dash. Also, the chrome plating on both my driver and front passenger inner door handles is peeling off. I heard that exposure to the sun may be a cause, however, my two front windows have had 5% tint on them since I bought it. Also, I just got my vehicle back from the dealership because of check engine light issues. The problem is fixed for now, however, after researching online it seems like there are hundreds of GMC Yukon owners experience very similar issues with their vehicle's engine. I keep reading about the "reduced engine power" and "service stabilitrak" warnings.
