GETTING BASEBALL EQUIPMENT OUT OF THE BACK OF MY VEHICLE, THE POWER LIFTGATE ROSE ALMOST TO THE TOP AND THEN STARTED TO AUTO CLOSE ON MY SON. THE FORCE COULD HAVE KILLED HIM IF SOMEONE WASN'T THERE. I'M A PHYSICALLY FIT MAN AND I HAD DIFFICULTY HOLDING UP THE LIFT GATE.

60000 MILES AND THE DASH CRACKED IN FRONT OF THE STEERING COLUMN FROM SIDE TO SIDE.IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE NOW IT'S CRACKING NEXT TO THE AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. SHARP PIECE OF PLASTIC WILL COME FLYING IF THE AIR BAGS INFLATE.

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE DASHBOARD CRACKED JUST ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THERE ARE 2 CRACKS. ONE IS ABOUT 4 INCHES WHILE THE OTHER IS ABOUT TWO INCHES. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, IT APPEARS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH GM VEHICLES.

THE DASH HAS CRACKED FROM THE DRIVERS SIDE JUST ABOVE THE GAUGE CLUSTER TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THE DASH IS CRACKED IN 3 DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. SEE ATTACHED PICS.

I PURCHASED MY TAHOE DECEMBER 31ST 2016 AND I NOTICED A FEW WEEKS AGO THAT THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED AND IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING BIGGER.
