The dashboard has cracked in two separate place. I am extremely concerned that should the passenger air bag deploy that the section of dash now unattached will be send flying into the passenger compartment causing a fatal wound. This is now the 2nd vehicle I have purchased where this has occurred. There is an obvious safety defect in the dashboard of the full size gm truck/SUV platform and a recall should be issued. The vehicle was stationary overnight when this cracking occurred both times.

My dashbord is cracking. Getting worse. Gmc needs to deal with this problem. I2 people that I work with also have gm trucks/SUV and they are also cracking in the same area. Make these companies step up and take care of this issue please.
2011 yukon xl (garaged it's entire life and well cared for) had crack in dash appear in jan 2016 which quickly spread from back to front causing the dash to become two pieces. Dealer only offered to "discount" a repair since out of warranty.
Dashboard has cracked in several places from above the drive side instrument panel and surrounding the air bag location. Concerned that in an air bag deployment, pieces of the dash may be projected throughout the interior causing injury.
Dashboard cracked top left of passenger side airbag and on right side of hump over steering wheel. I took to dealership, they said no recall, I called gmc and told them it was a serious safety issue as its seems like the dashboard is going to fall into the steering column and even make the air bag not function properly. They said I am outside of warranty (and said they have had tons of problems with this issue) . Vehicle is well maintained and only 53k miles.
"takata recall" cracks on the front dashboard on the right and left. Could cause safety issues when airbags deploy.
Both the driver side and front passenger side exterior door handles separated from the door panel, compromising the protection of the vehicle and the ability to enter and exit the vehicle properly.
Tl* the contact owns a 2011 gmc yukon denali xl. While driving approximately 40 MPH, the dashboard started to shake violently. The contact observed that there was a huge crack on the dashboard near the front passenger side air bag and the driver side behind the steering wheel. The failure recurred continuously. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, where it was diagnosed that the dashboard was fractured and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 55,000.
My dashboard is severely cracked around the passenger side airbag and cluster, which a may cause malfunctioning of the air-bag. I have done numerous searches on the internet and I am seeing this same complaint over and over. I am very curious with it happening so much why this has not been recalled and gmc taken care of this problem. I am extremely worried about safety and the high cost of repairing this myself, but I know it needs to be taken care of. I've owned gmc vehicles forever and have been very happy, up until this point. I think the company needs to address this problem, and quickly.
