What 2009 GMC Yukon Denali owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
I am concerned of the safety of me and my passengers. Over 1 year and still no resolution. I keep on being told call back and call back. Why so long to replace? The dash board has cracked and broken due to poor quality and many owners have dashboard issues.

Takata air bags. Gmc tustin has been saying they do not have parts "yet" since may 2016. When will parts be available? Clearly gmc just don't want to spend the money to keep it's customers safe. What do we do to get new safe airbags installed??
Takata recall - received notice of takata chapter 11 filing today. Gmc investigation to have been completed by end of august 2017; to date nothing; have spoken with dealership and they have heard nothing
Takata recall. We have been attempting to have the airbags replaced by gmc since being notified of the recall and were told they were not available yet to keep checking back. On 10/25/2017 schumacher gmc stated they will never be able to repair or replace the airbags and that it decreases the trade in value by $6000-$7000 because they cannot certify the vehicle. We fear for our safety driving this vehicle and has financially restricted us from moving forward on purchasing a new vehicle.
Takata recall. I contacted west point buick gmc in houston and they informed me that they can't get the airbags and that they have no clue when they will. They told me over a year ago when I called them and they told me the same I am trying to get my airbags done but nobody seems to want to help. Thank you
At 80,000 miles I discovered that my dash is cracked on the passenger side. I have also discovered that this is a very well known and common problem with gm vehicles and that it is potentially dangerous to passengers if the crack (that is sharp plastic) is to cut or rupture the airbag in the case of an accident. My vehicle has always been garage kept and never kept outside. This is a huge gm problem and there are thousands that need this fixed. There are even facebook groups with thousands upon thousands of people that have had the same problem across multiple vehicles. This crack literally happened out of no where.
Cracks in dashboard - this is my 2nd dashboard with cracks again. Definite flaw with design/materials.
