Cracked dash around my airbag. Very severely cracked.
Takata recall received letter stating my truck is affected by the takata airbag recall. The letter says my truck is "considered safe to drive" followed by a paragraph that says "the inflator may rupture during deployment, causing serious or fatal injuries". I got a similar notice from lexus a few days earlier, and lexus offered a rental no questions asked until the issue is resolved. The chevy dealer said they are not offering rentals at this time. Gm customer service said my truck is safe to drive so no rental warranted. I asked the rep why did I get a letter then saying that my airbag may kill me and was told she can't answer that. I want a rental of a similar truck until this is fixed. I live in zone 1/a of the recall as well, so if anyone is likely to have a problem, we are in this area.
Tl* the contact owns a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500. The contact stated that the sensor that activated the air bags was fractured. The fracture prevented the air bags from deploying. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the sensor was installed too tight, which caused it to fracture. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 76,569.
My dash has three cracks completely across the middle, and a crack on each side directly in front of driver side and also directly in front of passenger side right in corner around airbag compartment. Which my concern is a potential safety hazard! My vehicle was parked in parking lot, in shaded area. I went into store, returned aprx. 30 minutes and saw cracks. They were not there when I exited the vehicle to go in store.

I have a 2008 chevrolet silverado 1500 and the dashboard is cracked in two different places. One crack is on the passenger side, directly over the air bag. The other crack is above the left side of the instrument cluster. Every 2008-2013 chevrolet pickup or SUV that I have seen has one, if not both, of these cracks. I feel that it is very unsafe to have any damage in or around the airbag system, and I do not understand why gm will not fix an issue that is their fault.

The dash has developed cracks that may cause injuries to any body part that contacts it due to sharp edges. It may also cause injury during a crash and possibly by airbag deployment. I understand this is a problem on most of these vehicles. These cracks developed without physical force or any induced damage. The cracks happened while the vehicle was parked.

My dash is cracking in multiple places and pieces of it are falling inside. Mechanical things are starting to show. Concerned about sharp plastic and air bag deployment making dangerous
Takata recall received july 2015 and have not been notified of parts available as yet. With deaths being reported frequently I would like to know when to expect repairs to be done.
Takata recall. I received my notice for recall july 2015 and have contacted the dealer on several occasions only to be told no replacement parts are available. Given the nature of the recall and the fact injuries and deaths are still occurring how long do they have before they must replace the defective part
There is a crack just in front near the windshield on the left side of the passenger air bag in my truck only has 94k miles this is a continued problem as I owned a 2009 tahoe z71 that did not even have 30k miles on it prior to this that had the same problem occur this is a safety concern if the air bag is to deploy it will throw that plastic as a projectile this matter needs to be fixed my gm as there are thousands of trucks and suvs with this problem
For the production years 2007 through 2012, general motors has had extensive issues with the dashboards cracking around the passenger airbag, as well as other areas of the dashboard. I have a 2008 silverado with only 53,000 miles on it. I recently noticed that the dashboard has cracked where the passenger airbag is located. I took my truck to the dealership today (huffines chevrolet in plano, tx) to have them inspect the dashboard. They were very kind (as usual) and offered to extend me a courtesy discount to replace the dashboard for $500.00 versus the full price of $1,168.00. While this is a step in the right direction, I don't think I should have to pay for a defective dashboard that has been installed in silverado's, sierra's, avalanches, and suburban's for 7 production years. Besides the expense, these cracked dashboards represent major safety issues. If the airbag was ever deployed, both passengers and drivers will be subjected to injury by hard plastic shrapnel flying throughout the cabin. General motors should step up to the plate and offer its customers a free replacement of these dangerous broken dashboards.
"takata recall"I received the recall notice in july 2015. Still no remedy yet is unacceptable! What is gm waiting on? I suggest they be ordered to stop producing cars until they fix the ones that are on the road already. Perhaps that would get them to produce a remedy for this life threatening safety problem!

Replaced dash panel surrounding passenger air bag is cracking in same locations as original which was replaced several years ago with a customer "co-pay" ! Air bag deployment would result in sharp shards of the broken dash cover either damaging air bag or propelling those sharp shards toward passenger(s), or both!
With truck stationary, I have inspected and observed the following. Dash has cracked through multiple locations to include areas for stored airbags. Rattling sound is coming from insecure dash. Radio and speakers function intermittently and other times with static. Replaced speakers in doors and that did not resolve the problem. Drivers seat belt did not connect to receiver end. Replaced part ordered from gm parts website. A constant water leak comes from underneath dash along firewall into drivers side floorboards. Water soaked carpet and insulation has wicked to rear floor areas. No one has found the water source, but it has rusted driver side door panel screws and ruined carpet. Water appears to be worse when using hvacc or defroster. Replaced fuel vent valve solenoid underneath truck, near refuel cap/door, three times due to check eng light.
My dash is cracked on the left side of airbag. This happened a little over a year ago. The dash now is cracked in two places on the left side of airbag and also on driverside of dash. I have contacted dealer and also general motors when I first noticed this in 2014. I also contacted them again in 2015, I was told this is not a safety issue. My concern is they told me that I know this is a problem and I need to fix this or I am responsible if there is a problem with airbag deploying or a piece of the dash injuring someone in the event that the airbag does deploy. I feel this a safety issue that needs to be recalled.
