MY DASHBOARD STARTED TO CRACK AND THEN A BIG CHUNK FELL OUT OF IT.

CRACKED DASH OVER INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND SIDE AIR VENT AND AIR BAG AND GLOVE BOX.

THE DASH IS CRACKING JUST LIKE ALL THE COMPLAINTS ONLINE. CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES INCLUDING AROUND AIRBAG.

DASH HAS LARGE CRACK DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF STEERING WHEEL AND TWO SMALLER CRACKS ON EACH SIDE OF AIR BAG ON PASSENGER SIDE OF DASH.IT APPEARS TO HAVE HAPPENED QUICKLY AS I NOTICED IT WHEN WIPING DOWN DASH AND HAD NOT NOTICED IT LAST TIME I CLEANED.

THE DASHBOARD HAS DEVELOPED A CRACK AT THE CORNER OF THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. NORMALLY I WOULDN'T THINK THIS IS A RECALL ISSUE BUT I PERSONALLY KNOW OF AT LEAST THREE OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME EXACT CRACK AT THE SAME EXACT LOCATION ON THEIR DASHBOARD. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THE ISSUE AND IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THIS IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM WITH THE 2007-2011 SILVERADO AND TAHOE VEHICLES FROM CHEVROLET.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2011 CHEVY SILVERADO LTZ IS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES, INCLUDING OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND AT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG.

I HAVE A 2011 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 THAT HAS APPROXIMATELY 44,000 MILES ON IT AND IS GARAGE KEPT. I HAVE SEVERAL CRACKS AROUND MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WHICH COULD POSE A SAFETY ISSUE EVEN THOUGH GM SAID THE CRACKS WILL NOT.

2011 CHEVY SILVERADO 1500. THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH BOARD IS CRACKED. THE TRUCK ONLY HAD 40000 MILES ON IT WHEN THE DASH CRACKED. I CONTACTED GM ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, WITH NO LUCK TO GET THEM TO RECALL THIS PROBLEM. IN THE EVENT THE AIR BAG DEPLOYING PIECES OF THE DASH WILL COME APART AND GO FLYING EVERWHERE!!

THIS IS THE SECOND DASH BOARD THAT HAS CRACKED BY THE AIR BAG AND ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE FIRST WAS COVERED UNDER THE FACTORY WARRANTY AND NOW ITS OUT OF WARRANTY. I WORRY THAT HAVING A DASH THAT IS COMING A PART WILL BLOW APART IF THE AIR BAG GOES OFF AFTER ALL THE AIRBAG COVER IS ALSO THE SAME PLASTIC..THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND GM NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF IT. WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF YOU GET INTO A ACCIDENT AND THE DASH COME A PART.

THE DASHBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, TOP LEFT CORNER WHERE THE AIRBAG SITS IS CRACKED!

DASHBOARD IS CRACKING IN TWO PLACES. CRACKS ARE APPROXIMATELY 2 INCHES IN LENGTH AND HAVE SHARP EDGES. CONCERNED SHARP EDGES COULD CAUSE NEGATIVE IMPACT DURING AN IMPACT THAT CAUSES AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

CRACK IN THE DASH ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OVER THE AIR BAG.

DASHBOARD CRACKING RIGHT IN FRONT OF DRIVER ON TOP OF SPEEDOMETER. THERE ARE 2 CRACKS. I AM CONCERNED THAT IF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOY, THE SHARP BROKEN PLASTIC, CAN BECOME SHRAPNEL, AND A SECONDARY DANGER FROM PUNCTURE WOUNDS. THIS VEHICLE IS A 2011, WELL CARED FOR AND HAS LESS THAN 18K MILES

DRIVERS SIDE INSIDE HANDLE BROKE. WAS ATTEMPTING TO EXIT THE VEHICLE, WHEN THE LEVER BROKE OFF IN MY HAND. HAD TO ROLL WINDOW DOWN TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE. I WOULD BE UNABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE QUICKLY IN AN EMERGENCY.
