THIS IS DANGEROUS IN THAT YOU HAVE NO IDEA OF MILLAGE ON TRUCK AND WHEN TO CHANGE OIL, CHECK BRAKES, ALL THE THINGS MILAGE METERS ARE USED FOR.IF YOU GO ON THE INTERNET YOU SEE ALL SORTS OF VIDEOS ON THIS PROBLEM FROM OTHER CHEVY TRUCK OWNERS. CHEVY DOES NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE

AFTER DRIVING IN THE SUMMER WENT INSIDE MY HOUSE, WHEN I CAME OUT THE DASH HAD CRACKED ABOVE THE AIRBAG AREA. ALSO CRACKED ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THE TRUCK WAS NOT MOVING.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY CHEVROLET AVALANCHE STARTED CRACKING ABOUT 12 MONTHS AGO. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE I HAVE DISCOVERED THIS HAS BECOME A COMMON ISSUE WITH MANY CHEVROLET AVALANCHE, TAHOE, AND SUBURBAN IN THE 2007-2011 TIME FRAMES. I AM FOLLOWING WHAT OTHERS ARE DOING BY FILING COMPLAINTS WITH NHTSA AS I WOULD LIKE THIS ADDRESSED AS THE CRACK IS IN THE CORNER OF THE AIR BAG WHICH HAS BEEN RECALLED VIA THE TAKATA RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL APPROACHING ONE YEAR AND UNDER REVIEW!! ON JANUARY 17 2017 I CALLED GM ASSISTANCE TO FIND OUT THE STATUS OF RECALL AFTER RECEIVING A WRITTEN NOTICE. THEY STATED THAT IS STILL UNDER REVIEW. IT IS STILL SAFE TO DRIVE. WHY DOES IT TAKE ALMOST A YEAR TO EVEN START AND POSTPONE UNDER THE HEADING OF UNDER REVIEW? HONDA STARTED THE CHANGE OUT IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE NOTICE. ARE THEY WAITING TILL ONE OF THE FOUR GRANDCHILDREN OR WIFE IS INJURED OR KILLED? IT APPEARS THAT IT IS CHEAPER TO HAVE SOMEONE DIE THAN TO DO THE CORRECT THING OF REPLACING A DEFECTIVE PART. THEY APPEAR TO BE ATTEMPTING TO SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG. PLEASE DRAW THEIR ATTENTION AND GET THINGS COMPLETED AS THEY SHOULD DO. THANK YOU [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
