The dash has a crack at the top left corner where the airbag is located. I'm concerned about injury if the airbag is deployed or that it might not deploy properly in a crash.
Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2010 chevrolet suburban. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 16v381000 (air bags); however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.
Dash cracking in front of driver seat. Second time dash has cracked in last 2 years. Potentially effects electrical supporting airbag. Chevy/gm refuses to cover cost of replacement. Issue appears to be widespread among owners.
All of a sudden, while driving down a smooth road, heard a large pop sound from dashboard. Plastic dashboard cracked above instrument panel. Crack is now growing larger.
My suburban has had a cracked dashboard that has grown into many cease cracks. I am afraid the airbag will not d ploy correctly in a collision. Please help!
Several cracks have appeared in the dash of my 2010 suburban. One is on the left corner of the passenger airbag compartment. The other is above the instrument panel on the drivers side. After the crack occurred above the instrument panel, the sensors began to malfunction. The cracks appeared over time. We bought the vehicle used in 2012 and there were no defects in the dash. The vehicle has not been in any accidents nor has her been any force applied to the dash that would have caused the cracks. We discovered the cracks about a year ago and have been trying to work with gm to resolve the issue as it appears that this is occurring in thousands of other gm vehicles from 2007-2013. We are members of a facebook group with almost 4000 members all sharing the same photos, stories and issues with their gm vehicles. This complaint is filed due to the fact that the cracks are getting worse and my fear is that the passenger airbag could be dangerous if deployed. Not to mention the malfunctioning sensors under the instrument panel where the other crack is located.
Electrical is dash is causing the radio to mess up. It switches from radio to USB to cd to aux, will not stay on just one of them making listening to radio not possible. The air bag light stays on with a message saying check air bag. The tire monitor light stays on and don't know why. Also the ABS light comes on randomly, had this checked out and it wouldn't give them a code so chevy couldn't fix it while under warranty. This is a lot going and would love for it be fixed. I also seen that starting in 2011 there is recalls on this vehicle for electrical not sure why they wouldn't include the 2010.
Two large cracks appeared in my dash recently - no accident, no special cleaning solution, nothing. One crack is over the control console near the driver side and the other is around the passenger airbag. My concern is that the crack surrounding the passenger airbag could possibly hinder the airbag from working properly or could possibly eject shards of hard plastic into my passengers if the airbag did deploy. Gm should recall and replace all these dashes to prevent injury/death!
My dash on my suburban is cracked around the passenger airbag. I feel this issue is a safety hazard if the airbag comes out it may throw plastic pieces everywhere.
Crack dashboard in the airbag corner, two days after one more in the middle the steering wheel.
A crack appeared in the dash on the corner of the airbag! Two months later another crack appeared over the instrument panel. Currently the entire center portion of the dash is sinking. Our fear is this will cause an airbag malfunction or if the airbag does deploy, the entire center portion of the dash will be thrown into our face. I contacted gm and they agreed to pay 60% to have a new dash put in.
