2012 Chevrolet Suburban body problems

Filed Aug 19, 2022 · Body · NC

My dash on my 2012 Suburban cracked within 4 years of its manufactured date and it just keeps getting worse. If there were an accident it is so dry and cracked it will through hard plastic into the driver and passengers. I know of many other same and similar year models that have the same issue. Now that there is a passenger-side airbag recall would be the perfect time for GM to step up and fix this obvious flaw.

Dashboard is cracking. I understand the class action was dismissed. But this is so unfair that the customers have to pay to fix for problem caused by material problem.

We received an important safety recall to replace the airbag inflator (the federal safety agency recall number 21v051). After taking our vehicle to the dealer, we were told that if we want the recall then we have to pay to replace our dashboard (over $1,000). The dashboard has a crack which is a common and well-known defect of gm chevrolet trucks from 07-14, but it is not part of the airbag recall. And now, gm hides behind a so-called "cosmetic" issue in our dashboard to avoid compliance with the recall. Gm is not acting in good faith to remedy the defective airbag in our vehicle. We feel very unnerved to drive a vehicle with a bad airbag that gm refuses to fix without great expense. Others are likely facing the same issue for this recall.

There are 2 large cracks on the dashboard one running longitudinally on axis of steering column and another spreading forward toward driver side on forward driver corner of passenger airbag cutout radiused corner. I was warned after I purchased vehicle that it was a safety hazard in event of airbag deployment. I am reporting the date as the date I purchased vehical but crack was present prior to that date for an undetermined period of time.

3 large cracks on dash. Going from windshield to dash. If I ever need to have work done under dash, dash will fall apart. 3 cracks appeared for no know reason.

Dashboard has crack above gauge cluster on driver side and also cracked on passenger side at corner of airbag area. With dashboard crack near airbag I believe it could send shards of sharp plastic at passenger if airbag were to go off.
