2009 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 Complaints

THIS IS AN AIRBAG CONCERN, THERE IS CRACKING IN THE DASH BOARD NEAR THE PASENGER AIRBAG. THIS STARTED TWO MONTHS AGO, BUT THE CRACK KEEPS DEVOLPING. I HAVE ALSO HEARD OTHER CASES OF 2007-2013 GM VEHICLES. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS AFFECTS THE AIRBAG. THIS IS A CONCERN BECAUSE I HAVE HEARD OTHER COMPLAINTS. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN IT STARTED. I THINK IT'S BECAUSE OF THE WEAK PLASTIC.

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING. IT HAS ALREADY CRACKED IN THREE PLACES. ONE PLACE JUST ABOVE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG.

I AM VERY FRUSTRATED THAT A YEAR LATER AND WE HAVE NO FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE TO SEND MY SON OF IN THIS VEHICLE EVERYDAY AND WORRY. WHY IS IT TAKING THIS LONG WHEN IT CAN CAUSE A HORRIFIC PROBLEM.

IT IS A 5.3 ENG. IT USE 2 AT OF OIL A WEEK IF YOU IDLE THE ENG. IT HAS DONE THAT EVER SENSE I GOT THE TRUCK IT HAD 40,000 WHEN I GOT IT

SAFETY BULLETING 14515 ' CHASSIS ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE INTERNAL CONTAMINATION ' 2007-2014. MY 2009 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 IS HAVING A PROBLEM THAT THE ELECTRIC GOES OFF AND ON WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AFTER HITTING THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS IS INTERMITTENT AND DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL OF THE TIME. IT SEEMS VERY DANGEROUS, SOMETIMES WHEN IT HAPPENS THE DOOR LOCKS GO UP AND DOWN. I TALKED TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER IN TEMPE, FREEWAY CHEVROLET, AND THEY STATED MY TRUCK WAS NOT PART OF THE SAFETY RECALL BULLETIN 14515 EVEN THOUGH OTHER 2009 CHEVROLETR SILVERADO 1500S WERE PART OF THE RECALL. I WOULD THINK THAT CHEVROLET WOULD BE GLAD TO FIX IT BEFORE A CRASH, SORT OF LIKE TOYOTA SHOULD OF FIXED THEIR BRAKING AND ACCELERATION PROBLEM BEFORE SO MANY CRASHES. IS IT TRUE THAT EVEN IF THE TRUCK IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE RECALL, WHICH IS A SAFETY RECALL, IT MAY NOT BE COVERED FOR IT IS NOT LISTED?

I HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT THE DASH BOARD AROUND THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. . THE DASH IS CRACKING AROUND THE PLASTIC COVER AND I KNOW OF 2 OTHER TRUCKS THAT HAVE DONE THE SAME THING? I HAVE READ DIFFERENT ARTICLES ABOUT PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES AND THE DEALER TELLS THEM IT'S TOO BAD AND THEY WILL NOT WARRANT THE REPAIRS. THIS TO ME IS A VERY VERY BAD SAFETY MATTER JUST BECAUSE IF YOU ARE IN A BAD WRECK AND THE AIR BAG DOES DEPLOY THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THE DASH WILL POP THE BAG IF IT DOESN'T BLOW THE DASH BOARD UP AND SEND PLASTIC PROJECTILES FLYING ALL OVER THE PLACE POSSIBLY BLINDING OR KILLING YOU FROM THE SCRAPNAL PLASTIC PIECES. HAS ANYONE ELSE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE DASH BOARDS BEING DEFECTIVE?
