Door handles are faulty, sometimes they will not open the door and other times you cannot shut the door because, the door handle gets stuck.

When not in use my auto is stored inside an attached garage. One morning when I enter the vehicle to go to work I notice a crack on the dash above the glove box. It was not there the day before. No one had been in the vehicle except me and that was the day before to drive to work and to drive home. It sat in the garage overnight and the crack was noticed the next morning.
2009 yukon denali... On 2 separate occasions while attempting to open vehicle using external door handles, the front passenger side door handle & rear driver's side door handle came off. These are the chrome plated models. I was told by multiple sales personnel, service techs, & service managers that this is a common problem (apparently there is some sort of issue with the chrome plated models). I also have friends with similar models- yukon & tahoe that have experienced the same issue. Some have replaced all 4 door handles. I fear that I will be replacing the remaining door handles in the near future. I have an extended warranty but was told that it is not covered. Of course they consider this a cosmetic issue & not a safety issue so I truly doubt that there will be a recall. I have also seen on forums that this is a very common problem among gmc yukon & chevy tahoe owners starting around the 2007 model year.
The dash where the passenger airbag and above the instrument panel cracked. When I was searching to find a repair shop near me, I came across several blogs (http://repairpal.com/the-upper-dash-may-crack-554 and http://www.carcomplaints.com/gmc/yukon/2009/accessories-interior/cracked_dashboard.shtml) many people complaining of the exact cracks. When I called gmc they explained any recall has to be processed through this association, which I certainly wasn't aware of, and I do not think the other people were either because it's an approximately $1,600 repair at the dealership, and people have paid it. I really think this is an issue that should be rectified through gmc, so if this one complaint is not enough, please give me an opportunity to find others with the same issue to file a complaint as well. Thank you!
The outer door handle on the drivers door and front passenger door are coming off the vehicle.
