general problems of the 2009 GMC Yukon - part 2

Takata recall - called dealers in phx area and called gm. There are no parts available to replace the passenger airbag that has been recalled. Notice has been received since 2016.

Cracks in dashboard - this is my 2nd dashboard with cracks again. Definite flaw with design/materials.

�tamara recall� recall on passenger air bag in 2016. Never got it fixed because they never had a replacement. Even on 8/29/2018 checked to see if they had a replacement for the 2009 Yukon which no. As of today, January 08, 2019 no replacement for the passenger airbag so far.

When I entered my vehicle I noticed a crack on my dashboard leading to the passenger airbag panel. The crack leads to the top left of the airbag panel. The vehicle was stationary, located in my driveway. This is a safety concern. Will this interfere with deployment of the air bag? in the event of deployment, will the dash come removed and injure a rider? will the plastic shards cause bodily harm?.

While driving on the highway my wife and I heard a pop and shorty after that some rattling. We looked and found that the dashboard had cracked above the instrument cluster. The dash has since cracked in the middle of the dash and right at the corner of the passenger airbag. We are concerned that it would seriously hurt a passenger if th airbag was deployed. There are alot of complaints about this defect and I would appreciate if gm would stand behind their vehicles. The service writer at the dealership told me if it was his he would just pit a dash cover on it. That is not acceptable and I dont drive my vehicles like that. I have bought about 25 gm's in my life so I have been loyal even thru the bad times. Gm should pay to fix this.

Takata recall.

Dashboard is failing extensively due to an unknown manufacturing defect. Areas of failure include up to and around the portion which says "air bag" which is creating a significant safety concern. Plastic fragments are loose on cracked areas of dash. This presents a possible high-speed projectile hazard if air bag(s) are deployed and catch on loose/cracked areas during deployment. Vehicle has not been involved in any incidents. Dashboard surrounding airbag cracked while the vehicle was stationary and continues to develop additional cracks as time goes on. Finally, dashboard is vibrating while driving at highway speeds causing additional cracks and fragments of plastic to come loose. Discussions with mechanics indicate that entire dash may come loose and fall in to drivers or passenger under normal driving conditions, causing loss of control in addition to possible air-bag projectile hazard. Two local GMC dealers indicated that this is not a covered repair and that the consumer should replace the dash on their own if there is a safety concern by the consumer.

Cracks in dashboard. Near passenger airbag, which is under recall. Happening to so many of us. Please help!!https://m. Facebook. Com/groups/gmdashcrack/.

The upper dash has two cracks next to the passengers airbag opening. I cannot get these cracks repaired because that may interfere with the operation of the airbag. I am reporting this because I cannot find out if the broken, cracked upper dash could also interfere with the operation of the airbag. I have contacted GMC customer service and they open case # 8-1633101708 but have not offered to fix or replace the upper dash.

2009 GMC Yukon xl, 61000 miles. Dash around the airbag and all over the instrument cluster has cracked in multiple places. This vehicle has not been in any accidents and has never been driven off road. It has always been garaged. This is a very common problem with chevy/GMC trucks. If the airbag deploys there is a very good chance that pieces of the dash will pose a significant hazard to the vehicle occupants.

Crack on dashboard connected to where air bag.

A major problem with dashboard cracking in several places is a safety concern if air bags are deployed. Gm will not recognize the defect. Many complaints and no recall issued for this safety concern. Dashboard is cracked in several places directly behind airbag.

At 80,000 miles I discovered that my dash is cracked on the passenger side. I have also discovered that this is a very well known and common problem with gm vehicles and that it is potentially dangerous to passengers if the crack (that is sharp plastic) is to cut or rupture the airbag in the case of an accident. My vehicle has always been garage kept and never kept outside. This is a huge gm problem and there are thousands that need this fixed. There are even facebook groups with thousands upon thousands of people that have had the same problem across multiple vehicles. This crack literally happened out of no where.

Takata recall. No replacement has occurred and it has been over 2 years.

Dashboard is cracking at corners of the safety bags. Normal vibration has caused the cracks in the dashboard to extend over the instrument panel. I am concerned about the safety of the crash bags and the instrument cluster due to the cracks.

Takata recall. I have contacted gm, dealerships as gm told me and now here. I do not feel safe driving my vehicle with this current situation and no fix for this make of vehicles. I'm requesting some better answer other than "don't put a passenger in that seat" or "disengage the airbag". I would like either my vehicle to be out of my hands free and clear or some other solution not putting me in any more of an inconvenience. This is a severe issue that could result in many problems. There are no photos or more details as a consumer we can not view the airbag. I live in texas where conditions are hot and humid in which the recall specifically states is more of a cause for the deterioration. Please contact me to remedy this situation, and doing nothing is not acceptable. Thank you for your attention to this matter. At this time there has been no collision or issues, but at the point there may be it will be too late.

The problem on my 2009 Yukon, in less then 2 weeks my dashboard cracked in 3 places. 2 by the air bags and 1 by the steering column. I'm thinking the ones by the air bags are a safety problem. If the air bags would happen to go off , with the cracked dashboard. Will the dash explode in to pieces, like shrapnel. Cause more damage to human life? this should be a safety recall. It stays under a breezeway when not in use. We where driving an herd a pop in the dash. Then the next thing we know we have 3 cracks. I know I'm not the only one with this problem. .

I purchased a gm certified vehicle on September 5, 2014. On October 31, 2014 I was driving and heard a noise near the passenger dash. I looked and noticed a crack appeared on the dashboard at the airbag. The crack is about 3 inches long and runs from the edge of the dash to the airbag. The crack meets the cut out where the airbag is. I have made numerous attempts to contact gm customer care about this issue and the safety concerns I have as it relates to this crack leading to the airbag. Each time I contact gm they do not seems too concerned and tell me it is my responsibility to replace the entire dash. I see this crack as a safety issue because if the airbag were to deploy the crack could possibly puncture the airbag due to the location or send sharp plastic flying potentially into the passenger's eye. This issue is alarming because this is a very common problem in 2007-2009 gm vehicles. Gm is not wanting to issue a recall, however, this problem occurs in almost all vehicles of this type. I am unhappy about the response I have gotten from gm customer care and would like for you to be aware of the situation. I have a photograph that I would be willing to provide to you if you would like to see the crack and location. Thank you.

Noticed huge crack in dash for no apparent reason. Common issue on 2007-2013 vehicles I'm finding out. Concerned with danger of plastic shards causing serious injury if airbags are deployed. Vehicle had never been in accident and has low milage and kept up well. Gm has offered little help.

Dash cracked on corner of where the passenger airbag is located. This is a huge safety concern. I'm afraid that it will either prevent the airbag from deploying in a crash, or tear the airbag upon deployment, or worse, shoot projectiles of dash toward my children who are passengers.

Dash is cracked beside passenger airbag. Gm stated that nobody has died yet, so they will not issue a recall. The dash is brittle and cracking more every day. When the airbag deploys, I am terrified that dash shrapnel will be thrown into my children's faces. The crack occurred overnight, when the car was garage kept.

A crack had appeared on the dashboard going to the direction of the airbag. I had attempted to consult with the local GMC dealership that stated it's no threat and basically sent me on my way. It's been a year later and now not only has it cracked in that one area but I have 2 additional cracks and the dash has separated approx. 1/2" at the airbag. It seriously concerns me considering I have custody of my grandchildren (11 & 9) who are riding in this vehicle 99. 5% of the time. I'm deathly afraid the airbag is either going to deploy on its own or worse not deploy if/when it's needed.

Concern about the safety during a collision or airbag deployment from sharp plastic exposed due to the cracks in the dash cutting the airbag or shards of plastic becoming projectiles potentially causing injury to occupants.
