1 Steering Column problem

Failure Date: 04/07/2015

Over a month ago I noticed a huge crack above steering column, the raised part. Knowing it was not a user error, I was planning on contacting GMC. Last week I noticed another crack on left side of air bag. I decided to look online and see if this happened to others. And yes it has. There are several years affected, 1993, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011. There are thousands of GMC owners who have contacted GMC as I have just done, without assistance. No recalls have been issued. This is a huge safety issue and I'm very very upset, frustrated and disappointed in GMC. I should not have to pay out of my pocket to get this fixed as it is GMC's responsibility! the sad thing is it will take a serious accident for them to resolve this situation.

2 Steering Column problem

Failure Date: 01/10/2015

A large crack appeared on the dash hump behind the steering wheel and grew larger leaving a hole exposing the steering column electrical wires. Another crack developed on the dash beside the upper left corner of the passenger side airbag. I am concerned with both electronics being exposed and jagged edges beside the airbag deployment area, the airbags may fail in a crash. I am also concerned that steering could eventually become impacted. I contacted gm customer service and they refused to provide assistance even though they know it is a common, well documented problem in their vehicles. Someone needs to hold them accountable for defects that can lead to safety issues. No impacts or collisions have led to this issue. It just simply appeared. It was stationary when discovered one morning. Although I am not certain the exact date, the problem was first noticed in January 2015.
