The dash board of my vehicle has cracks in it. More and more cracks are beginning to develop over the airbag. I am worried about the airbag deploying with sharp plastic pieces pointing at it. I think this is a hazard to all drivers. Every gm truck/tahoe from 2007-2013 (that I have seen) have these ugly and dangerous cracks in them.

I have cracks on my dashboard of my truck. Both on the drivers side and passanger. I'm afraid that if I have an accident that peices of the plastic could harm me and my grandchild. Also could the cracks get bigger and form a hole in my dash? That does not seem very safe.
Cracks around air bag in dash passenger side, sharp plastic parts could injure occupants in case of air bag deployment. This is common on most 07 gm pickups. The dealers will not repair this.. The plastic is brittle and has sharp edges.
There are two cracks in the dash of my 2007 gmc sierra 1500. One of the cracks runs into the passengers airbag the other is over the instrument panel.
There are cracks on the dashboard connected to the airbag. I'm concerned this may be a safety hazard that could send shrapnel if airbags deploy like the recent takata recall. It started with one small crack and has developed into three across the dashboard. The largest around ten inches long. This seems to be a prevalent issue with this and similar gm makes and models but I did not find a recall or service bulletin on the issue. I contacted gmc and they do not offer any assistance outside of warranty.
Dash is cracking around air bag leading to safety concerns if air bag deploys with sharp plastic pieces flying. I will install the third dash in the truck due to the cracking to prevent injuries in case of an accident.

I have a 2007 gmc sierra that I filed a complaint about before because the airbags deployed when I hit a small pothole. After gmc fixed vehicle they assured me it was safe to drive because they fixed the overly sensitive sensor. I was driving the vehicle home in september of 2010 and the side air bags deployed again. I still have vehicle while gmc decides what they should do to fix the problem . Really? I hope they realize why they needed a bailout.
We need to install a toddler's britax car seat in the front passenger seat of a 2007 gmc sierra truck. Our truck has no way to allow us to turn off the passenger air bag. We have contacted gmc corporate headquarters and our local dealer at crown gmc in st. Pete fl and they told us there is no way we can turn it off. Then erica called from gmc corporate and told us it could be turned off but we needed to contact you and fill out a form. Her phone number is 866‑790‑5600 ext 11292. Please help us figure out a safe way to install the seat and authorize gmc to show us how to turn the passenger air bag off when the child car seat is in and on for when the seat is not installed and an adult passenger rides in front.
