The dashboard has cracked in 4 or 5 places over a period of time. This was not a result of an accident. It just cracked without any stress on it.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet suburban 1500. The contact stated that the dashboard prematurely cracked in the same area twice. The vehicle was taken to the dealer twice where they replaced the dashboard, but the failure recurred. The dealer was notified and indicated that a clip fractured and there was a crack on the dashboard that needed to be replaced a third time. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 65,000.

I purchased a 2007 chevrolet suburban approximately 18 months ago. It had approximately 86000 miles on it. At approximately 89000 miles the dash began cracking. It has continued to crack ever since. The first one was on the left front of the passenger side airbag. Since then I have numerous cracks on the drivers side over the instrument panel. This could be a hazard if the air bag is deployed and the dash breaks further and sends projectiles of the dash material airborne in a crash. This seems to be a problem with all of these model vehicles from 2007 to 2011. I believe it should be addressed and paid for by gm. Some of these cracks have happened while moving and one even happened from the interior getting cold inside.

My two children and I where coming home from a wrestling tournament traveling on a highway doing about 65 MPH. They were in the back seat. We all had seat belts on. I had a epileptic seizure and they said my foot hit the throttle so we might have be going faster when we hit. I last recall doing the speed limit. I went to the left and missed a power pole but hit the railroad tracks(these tracks are banked up on dirt and rock). Which caused the suburban to some how roll 4 to 5 times down the tracks.we ended up on the other side of the tracks on our rims. Every tire was blown. Every window was shattered except the front it had a hole in a center of it which a railroad tie came thru. There are impressions of the railroad road tracks on the suburban . The driver side of the suburban is smash down to the driver head rest . I ended up with a broken neck. Thank goodness my kids seats were reclined in the back or their necks would have broke. Not one part of this suburban is not smashed. Everything flew out of it when we rolled. My son had to crawl out the window and search on the ground to find cell phones that flew out of the suburban when we wrecked to call 911. The side air bags failed my family. I always felt safe with them. But we rolled and they did not work. Even the front airbag didn't go off when I first hit the tracks. Besides my broken neck it all turned out good. I will never buy a chevy again. Our insurance company said our suburban is totaled. Only thing worth anything is maybe the seats. Everything thing else is scrap metal. If you'd like to see pictures your welcome to contact us. But please check into these suburbans. If we wouldn't have had seatbelts we would all be dead. My husband went and bought a 2015 ford . I will never put my trust in a chevy again. Or airbags. I'm wondering if they just put a airbag sticker in them to make us feel safe. Thank you

The plastic instrument dash has cracked in two places. The one crack is located beside the passenger airbag. It appears that it would be possible for pieces of the plastic dash to be propelled around the interior cabin of the vehicle if the airbag would deploy in a crash.

Interior chrome door handles peeling. Peeling chrome extremely sharp. I've had my fingers pricked by the peeling chrome and my wife got a small cut on her finger from it. Very sharp.
