Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge Problems of GMC Yukon

The upper dash panel cracked. There is a large crack in the curved portion of the dash above the steering wheel and gauges. The vehicle has not been subject to any extreme temperature changes - it is always parked inside a garage. I went to drive the vehicle after it had been sitting unused for about a week noticed the crack right away as it is very noticeable. Now, when driving there is a very audible rattling noise coming from the dash. Aside from this being aesthetically and audibly hideous, I am worried that this is a safety hazard. If the vehicle were to be involved in a crash the cracked pieces of the dash could more easily injure someone. I also fear the cracked pieces that are rattling inside the dash could puncture the airbags and render them useless in the event of a crash. This is a manufacturing flaw. This should not have happened under the circumstances and care this vehicle receives.

The front collision avoidance system does not work. I can set a 1-3 bar alert on the steering wheel, however in the 3 months I've owned the car and trying different maneuvers at different speeds, I don't get a an audible nor visual red light warning that I've experienced on a newer chevy impala I drive. The dash info center below the gauges will change from a green semi-circular 3 bar system to a yellow if I come within the 3 car lengths set of another vehicle while driving. I've researched this issue using google and quite a few people say different GMC models with this system all behave differently. Everyone uses the you tube video by gm as the example of how it is supposed to work. Note, my windshield next to the rearview mirror is clean, so the sensors are not impeded. To me, setting the system to the maximum forward distance to avoid a collision gives you a false sense of security that could easily lead to an accident. The system does not work as designed.

My dash is cracked above the instrument gauges and if the air bag deploys this will have dash board pieces flying in the cabin due to the cracks.

The cluster from all the dashboard has stop working the speedometer the gauges everything.

Speedometer and other instruments are inaccurately reading. Speedometer ranges from 25 - 70 mph overstated. Fuel gauge remains well in excess of full until about 7 gallons are left in tank. Oil pressure is registering well to the right of the highest reading. Problem began during cold temperature (around 10 degrees) and improves with temperature increases but has not resolved itself. Appears to be the same problem as gm special policy adjustment 07187a. The VIN is within the category listed by the policy; however, the vehicle is older than 10 years but fits within the mileage restrictions since the vehicle has less than 64,500 miles. This appears to be a known defect which clearly impacts safety. . Read more...

Have a Yukon and the dash board is cracked at both sides of airbag on passenger side and above the gauge cluster. The plastic is very brittle and my concerns is if there was ever a car wreck and the airbags deployed it would send plastic projectiles throughout vehicle which the vehicle is used to carry my 1 and 2 year old children daily. I feel this should be a defect or a recall considering almost all these vehicles all crack in the same spot I feel it was a poor design by GMC and at over 1000 dollars to have it fixed is just crazy . Thanks for your time.

The plastic dashboard is cracked on top of gauge cluster. I am concerned the dash may shatter in a crash if the air bags deploy due to the crack causing the entire dash to be compromised. . This is a safety issue should a airbag deployment happen. I have noticed the dash has been cracked for about a year but didnt find out until today that it has been an ongoing issue with other gm owners.

The dash is cracked near the passenger side air bag. It cracked again on the part that is over the gauge cluster while driving down the road. The second crack is about 5 inches long, causing the whole dash to vibrate while driving. I epoxy'd the crack so it wouldn't continue to spread, causing the dash to become more unstable.

The dash has cracked around the passenger airbag as well as the airbag by gauge housing on the driver side. These cracks are large enough that the entire dash rattles from vibrations and could possibly affect the proper airbag deployment.

The dash board has cracked in 4 different places, left side of gauge cluster, left of center speaker, in front of center speaker and to the left of passenger air bag. I am not sure when it happened.

I keep having the display say "reduced engine power". I'll be driving on the highway, doing 65 in rush hour traffic, when all of the sudden the accelerator no longer accelerates and it displays "reduced engine power" on the gauge cluster display. From what I've seen online it appears to be an issue with the throttle position sensor on thousands of other similar vehicles with the same engine, chevy suburban's, silverado's, tahoe's, etc. I replaced the throttle position sensor and the harness (because I heard the harness might also be an issue) and I am still having the same problem with my truck. It has done it over a dozen times on one trip back from work (80 miles for me). I have to pull over to the side of the road (if possible) and turn off the truck, then wait a short period of time, then turn the truck back on. This usually fixes the issue, but it did not help me when it happened to me in the tunnel and I was going 5 mph (top speed during the "reduced engine power" mode, once your drifting stops (because you drift, it doesn't engage the brakes). I was extremely worried that I wouldn't make it out of the tunnel without get rear ended, and once I made it out, I was just outside of the tunnel awaiting roadside assistance, it was very frightening, with my daughter in the car.

The plastic dash board has cracked. It started out small coming from the passenger side airbag and stretching to the edge of that dash panel. Now a second part of the dash has cracked by the driver side over the instrument gauge cluster. The portion of the dash that's cracked by the passenger airbag is my biggest concern as it could break off and cause sharp pieces to hit the passenger in the face of the airbag was deployed. My GMC dealer stated my extended warranty doesn't cover this "cosmetic" issue and therefore I will have to come out of pocket for a portion of the cost. This is unacceptable. I'm the original owner and he vehicle is garaged. There could be no long term damage to the dash other than what it's intended to do which is to be under the windshield. GMC - own this issue and correct the problem please. I'm not likely to be a repeat customer of you can't produce a superior and reliable product -or- be responsible and correct an issue that is clearly a manufacturers defect.

The top of the dash has two cracks, one behind the gauge cluster and one by the airbag door. This is becoming more and more common on the tahoe, Yukon, escalade and assorted gm trucks in the 2007-2011 range. In some cases, the cracks have gotten quite large and jagged to the point that pieces of the dash are loose and could become projectiles or affect the airbag in the event of a crash. Gm is so far unwilling to assist if people make a complaint to them, although some people have gotten gm to pay for half or more for a replacement dash if they are pushed hard enough. However, there are now reports that the replacement dashes are cracking. And it has been shown that the cracks are not due to chemicals or extreme weather.

2 cracks in dashboard that coincide with so many of the complaints gm has and continues to receive. One is at the top left corner of the airbag dash cap and the 2nd is over the instrument panel/gauges hump of the dash.

The top of the dash has three cracks, two behind the steering wheel & gauge cluster and one by the passenger airbag door. In researching I see that this is becoming more and more common on the tahoe, Yukon, escalade and assorted gm trucks in the 2007-2011 range. In some cases, mine in particular, the cracks have gotten quite large and jagged to the point that pieces of the dash are loose and could become projectiles or affect the airbag in the event of a crash. It is extremely concerning and gm should stand behind their products and recall these defective dashboards. This does not look good for gm and if something is not done I will not invest in another gm product.

The instrument panel gauges are sticking the odometer is not working at all the oil gauge is pinned and the other gauges also stick. The odometer and oil gauge is all the time and nothing has been done to repair the problem gm has informed me that they will not help me get this very dangerous defect repaired. This is a defect in the panel cluster not wear and tear or anything we have done.
