I bought my 2011 silverado 1500 with 8,000 miles on it from the dealership oct 2012. While under a bumper to bumper warranty my dash busted at the air bag. I reported this to the dealer the truck had around 16,000 - 18,000 miles on it. I was told the dash was made that way so no claim was made. Since then my dash has only gotten worse and worse. Now that its no longer under the bumper to bumper warranty they admit it needs to be replaced at my cost! I'm am so fed up with gm's product. I have spent the past 4 years trying to get my dash replaced at their cost. Its clearly nothing I did wrong to cause it. I have found hundreds on complaints about the same problem.. There have been several lawsuits that's been taking out on them for this issue. "if I get in a wreck the passenger air bag will send sharp plastic into my passengers face.. My farther has a 2010 silverado 1500 with 50,000 miles on it and his is also busted the same way at the air bag. This is a huge know quality / safety issue that needs to be immediately recalled at gm's cost. I paid $28,000 for my new truck and less then a year its falling apart..

The dashboard has cracked in 2 separate places due to cheap supplies. One of the cracks is near the airbag so if the airbag were to deploy parts of the broken dashboard would be thrown into the passenger and cause injury.

Dashboard crack next to airbag (upper right corner) and over instrument panel. I am concerned that in a wreck where the airbag deploys the dash will become a deadly projectile. The cracks occurred without any undo stress on the dashboard. The vehicle was not in motion when it occurred.

To your company offering to put a used engine in a used vehicle. Then purchasing a 2011 chevrolet silverado 1500, and having numerous electrical issues. You had asked me to give your dealership a second chance to correct the problem with my 2011 chevrolet silverado 1500.

Takata recall: I have faxed and emailed ceo and executives of general motors several times each day regarding this matter. I am going on vacation and do not feel safe driving the vehicle with these airbags. The notice that we just received this month, stated the vehicles are currently safe to drive. It does not state anything about in the future (I.e. Next month, next week, etc.). They knew about the defect but just decided to send out recall notices late last month. I want a rental car for the week I need to drive out of town, at their expense, because we should have notified earlier and they will not verify (the executives) nor backup the engineering department that the vehicles are safe to drive. I want a letter from the ceo that verifies this or a rental vehicle for one week until my vehicle is repaired. We live in hot texas and the vehicle is always exposed to hot and humid temperatures! This vehicle is not safe.
