DASHBOARD CRACKED IN TWO PLACES. ONE ABOVE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, ONE BY PASSENGER AIRBAG. DASHBOARD RATTLES DUE TO CRACK. AIRBAG FUNCTION MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED. THERE WAS NO INCIDENT THAT LEAD TO THE CRACKS, OTHER THAN OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATIONS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE VEHICLE AND THE GARAGE FILLED UP WITH DARK GRAY SMOKE WITHOUT WARNING. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST DUE TO AN OIL CONSUMPTION LEAK. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

THE MANUFACTURER OFFERED THE CONTACT A DEAL TO PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, I HAD JUST TURNED ONTO A CITY STREET FROM A SHOPPING CENTER AND THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. THEIR WAS NOT ANY WARNING THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN. VEHICLE WAS DRIVING FINE UP UNTIL THAT POINT. THE VEHICLE DID NOT MOVE WHEN PRESSING ON GAS. ME AND MY CHILDREN CAME VERY CLOSE TO GETTING HIT, WE WERE SITTING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. NO WARNING SIGNS OF THIS. I HAD TO GET THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED. I DIDN'T PLAN ON SPENDING 4000 DOLLARS ON A 2010 CHEVY SUBURBAN.

THE DASH HAS A CRACK AT THE TOP LEFT CORNER WHERE THE AIRBAG IS LOCATED. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT INJURY IF THE AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED OR THAT IT MIGHT NOT DEPLOY PROPERLY IN A CRASH.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

DASH CRACKING IN FRONT OF DRIVER SEAT. SECOND TIME DASH HAS CRACKED IN LAST 2 YEARS. POTENTIALLY EFFECTS ELECTRICAL SUPPORTING AIRBAG. CHEVY/GM REFUSES TO COVER COST OF REPLACEMENT. ISSUE APPEARS TO BE WIDESPREAD AMONG OWNERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR MAINTENANCE, THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE UPPER PANEL OF THE DASHBOARD WAS FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 96,000.

THE DASH HAS BEEN CRACKED FOR YEARS ON A SIX YEAR OLD VEHICLE. GM REFUSES TO MAKE IT RIGHT. THIS IS DOCUMENTED TO BE A DESIGN FLAW ON MANY GM TRUCKS AND SUVS FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND GM IS TOO CHEAP TO FIX THEM.

THE DASH HAS CRACKED IN 3 DIFFERENT DIRECTION ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AT THE UPPER RIGHT HAND CORNER OF THE AIR BAG. THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED HAS STATED THAT GM WILL NOT REPAIR OR REPLACE IT. THE CRACK STARTED AS ONE AND HAS SINCE RUN IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS.

MY DASH IS CRACKED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BETWEEN THE AIRBAG DEPLOY LOCATION AND THE FRONT WINDOW VENTS. THIS ARE IS APPROXIMATELY 1 1/2 INCHES AND OBVIOUSLY NOT WELL MADE AS THERE ARE MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. ONLY OTHER PROBLEM IS THE STEERING WHEEL WHINES WHEN I TURN IT. OTHER THAN THAT I REALLY LIKE MY VEHICLE, JUST WHICH CHEVY WOULD STAND BEHIND ITS PRODUCT MORE, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS A REAL DEFECT LIKE THE DASH.
