Front Air Bag Problems of GMC Yukon

I have a 2007 GMC Yukon that I purchased new from a dealership that is no longer in business. I noticed in October of 2009 that the dashboard was cracked. Over the next few months the cracks got worse and now are in three areas. I contacted GMC and was told to take it into a dealership for them to access the damage. A week after I took it in I contacted GMC again and they told me that they would offer me a 10% discount to have it fixed. I tried to speak to their supervisor and was given the run around and I gave up. Since then the dashboard has gotten worse and pieces of the dash board are breaking off into the dash. When I put my hand on the dash it is not stable as there is a lot of movement. The cracks are also around my airbag on the passenger side in two spots. I'm afraid to let anyone sit in the front seat due to the possibility of the airbag malfunctioning due to a collapse of the dash. There are pieces of the dash that are already breaking off above the drivers side steering wheel. I'm afaid if this side collapes that it could cause a fire, entrapment, accident, injury and or death. I would hope that you understand my concern of me and my families safety. I would be happy to supply you with pictures or bring my vehicle in for inspection. Gm told me that they haven't heard of this problem, but when I brought it into the dealership the service guy said he had seen a few like this. I have also found a lot of people on the internet that are having this same this happen to their 2007 Yukon or 2007 tahoe.

On 12/14/07 we were involved in an auto accident. We were traveling at about 50mph and ran into the back of another vehicle. The whole front passenger side of our Yukon is totaled. The front end/battery and other items is pushed up into the engine. My concern is that neither one of the airbags deployed in the accident. Why? the impact should have released the airbag and the driver of the vehicle hit his shoulder on the steering wheel, which the airbag would have prevented that.

Crash with a vehicle who pulled out in front of us. We were going 60+ mph on a 65 mph marked highway. Our front passenger side hit the other vehicle's driver ('89 Lincoln towncar) quarter panel. Both vehicles were totalled by insurance. No airbags in my vehicle deployed. Fortunately, the structure of the vehicle held up to the crash and there were minimal injuries. The seatbelt caught the driver and there wasn't anyone in the front passenger seat or there might have been more injuries since the airbags didn't deploy. Vehicle was totalled and no replacement or repair was done.

We contacted GMC customer service (victor johnson) and requested an investigation. GMC has now told us that since no one was fatally injured there will be no investigation. How can they do this? my wife has been injured - probably permanently- and we want to know why they did not deploy - as this was a direct frontal impact. I believe that the manufacturer has an obligation to us and is merely playing a game at this point. Is it in our best interest to hire an attorney on the matter or what should we do?.

My wifes vehicle left the road where she tried to correct and vehicle rolled over,killing her as she was by herself. None of the airbags deployed, and the vehicle was a complete disaster.
