Starting approximately 24 months ago the dash on my Suburban started cracking. Now it has cracked in several locations on both the driver's and passenger side of the dash. The cracks on the passenger side go up to the air bag location. Cracks on the driver's side are numerous and getting worse. The driver's side cracks are such that the pieces would come apart in an accident, even if the air bag was not deployed.

Feb. 15 , 2019 transmission went out in car. Brought car earlier in the year because it was jerking but they said it was normal. Went out of town and transmission went out at 93,721 miles. Extended warranty went out on feb. 14, 2019. Only hours before and no company would help! We paid 5,000 for a replacement and noticed that my dash had a crack in it after being repaired. Chevrolet company said they didn't do it. Now the dash is almost cracked all the way to my steering wheel. I understand the wear and tear of any vehicle, but for the warranty to go out hours before hand was unbelievable. Plus, the repair man that installed my transmission said my motor drinks oil. Yes, we know that. He explained to us why and said that chevy should have replaced my motor when we brought it in during our bumper to bumper warranty. We no longer use chevyland because of their lack of service department. I will say that chevy needs to build better door rests. Every time I push open my door or close it, the handle area is broke in half. Its a thin piece of plastic and its not worth paying an arm and leg to fix it. Needs to be a piece of metal.

I previously filed a report concerning the dashboard cracking in 2 spots. On the passenger side the crack is at the top left corner of where the airbag sits. This has been brought to gm's attention they've fought replacing these dashboards. Now you have issued a recall on the airbags. How are they to be repaired correctly and made safe when the plastic seated around them is cracked and defective thus leaving us still exposed to shattered plastic from a defective dashboard. The dashboard replacement should also be part of the recall!

Dashboard has cracked in two places. It is an expensive repair that chevy will not stand behind. In the event of airbag deployment small pieces of plastic could fly and injure occupants.

The dash is cracking like so many others of this model. My suburban has always been garage or carport kept and there is no reason the dash should be cracking.
