2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN Complaints

DASH SPONTANEOUSLY CRACKED AT THE AIRBAG PANEL AND OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IN 2011 SUBURBAN WITH 39,000 MILES. GARAGE STORED. I HAVE CONCERN ABOUT THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SAFETY WITH THIS CRACK. A SEARCH ON-LNE REVEALS THIS IS A VERY BIG PROBLEM FOR MANY CHEVY AND GM SUBURBAN/TAHOE OWNERS.

CRACKED DASH ON MY 2011 CHEVY SUBURBAN. THE CRACKS EXTENDED THE LENGTH OF THE DASH AND UP AND AROUND THE PASASNGER AIRBAG

THERE IS A RECALL WITH TAKATA AIRBAG AND CHEVROLET HAS NOT FURNISHED A REPLACE THE PART OR FIX IN A TIMELY MANNER. SECOND ISSUE IS WITH DASHBOARD CRACKING. MY SUBURBAN SITS UNDER OUR CARPORT 99% OF THE TIME, BUT YET HAS A FEW CRACKS ON THE DASH. THIRD ISSUE IS CORROSION IN THE UNDERCARRIAGE, AND I LIVE IN DEEP SOUTH TEXAS WHERE IT DOES NOT SNOW, AND THE BEACH IS 1.5 HOURS AWAY FROM WHERE I LIVE. THIS VEHICLE SITS ON JUST OVER 40K MILES.

THE DASH PANEL OF MY 2011 SUBURBAN LTZ HAS MULTIPLE CRACKS. THE CRACKS ARE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FROM ONE END TO THE OTHER, AND AT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG, FROM ONE END TO THE AIR BAG. I HAVE PAID TO HAVE THE CRACKS REPAIRED MULTIPLE TIMES, BUT THEY CONTINUE TO CRACK, AS EVIDENCED BY THE ATTACHED PICTURES. THESE CRACKS HAVE APPEARED COMPLETELY ON THEIR OWN WITHOUT ANYTHING BEING PLACED ONTO OR HITTING THE DASH PANEL. SHOULD I BE INVOLVED AN ACCIDENT CAUSING THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY, THESE CRACKS WOULD CREATE A "SHRAPNEL EFFECT" OF THE PLASTIC PIECES BEING FORCED INTO THE PASSENGER CABIN AND POSSIBLY INTO THE FACES OF PASSENGERS.

I HAVE ONE LARGE SPIDER CRACK ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND ANOTHER CRACK NEXT TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG IN THE DASHBOARD. THIS POSES A VERY LIKE IMPEDIMENT TO THE SAFETY AND FUNCTION OF THE AIRBAGS IN A WRECK.
