2011 GMC YUKON Complaints

THE DASH COVER IS CRACKING AND IS BROKEN. THIS IS HAPPENING CLOSE TO THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I'M JUST WAITING FOR THE AIRBAG TO EXPLODE WHILE I AM DRIVING. THIS IS SO UNSAFE!! MY KIDS ARE IN DANGER.

I'M A 2011GMC YUKON OWNER THAT HAS A CRACKED DASH THAT IN ONLY A MATTER OF TIME IS GOING TO AFFECT THE AIR BAG. WHEN I REACHED OUT TO GMC, THEY TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR AN ACCIDENT TO HAPPEN BEFORE THEY WOULD LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM.

MY DASHBOARD HAS 2 CRACKS IN IT. THIS BEGAN AROUND 55,000 MILES. ONE IS ABOVE THE AIRBAG AND THE OTHER IS IN THE MIDDLE ON TOP OF THE MIDDLE SPEAKER. I PURCHASED A $1500 EASY CARE EXTENDED WARRANTY WHEN I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE TO HOPEFULLY TAKE CARE OF ANYTHING THAT MIGHT HAVE COME UP WHILE PAYING ON THIS VEHICLE. THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER THE DASHBOARD. OF COURSE! I SPENT COUNTLESS HOURS ON THE PHONE WITH THE DEALERSHIP, GMC SENIOR ADVISORS, AND THEN THE NEXT IN LINE TO FINALLY BE TOLD I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR $300 PLUS TAX FOR THE REPAIR. WHAT UPSET ME THE MOST IS THE FACT THAT GMC TRIED TO BLAME WEAR AND TEAR AND THE SUN WITHOUT ACCEPTING THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE DEFECT. THIS SHOULD NOT BE MY RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX. WHAT INCENTIVE DO I HAVE TO EVER BUY GMC AGAIN WHEN I AM DRIVING ONE OF THE TOP OF THE LINE VEHICLES WHICH COSTS $65,000 AND I'M TOLD THAT IT'S NOT THEIR FAULT THAT ST 55,000 MILES MY DASH IS CRACKED AND RATTLING AND I'M DRIVING AROUND WITH PAPER STUFFED IN IT TO STIFLE THE NOISE. SO DISGUSTED!!!!! THE BEST THEY COULD DO IS THAT I PAY $300 PLUS TAX TO FIX. WHAT AN INSULT! LAST GMC VEHICLE. MAKE IT RIGHT WITH YOUR CUSTOMERS WHEN IT'S YOUR FAULT!!

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2011 YUKON XL WITH ONLY 52,000 MILES ON IT. A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO MY YUKON DASHBOARD CRACKED OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND AT THE RIGHT PASSENGER AIRBAG. THIS DASHBOARD HAS NO SUPPORT UNDER IT AND I CAN PUSH THE DASHBOARD DOWN WITH MY FINGER WITHOUT APPLYING ANY FORCE. WHEN THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS THE DASHBOARD WILL BREAK OFF AT THE WEAK POINT BREAKING WITH POINTED SHARP AREAS THAT CAN EITHER PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG OR HIT THE PASSENGER. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ITEM. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT THIS CRACKED DUE TO HEAT SO I AM NOW CONCERNED THAT THE FAULTY DASHBOARD IS CRACKING DUE TO HEAT THAT THE TAKATA RECALL IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THAT ALSO RELATES TO HEAT IN THIS VEHICLE. BOTH OF THESE ITEMS SHOULD BE RECALLED.

OUR DASHBOARD CRACKED ON A 3 YEAR OLD CAR - THE LOCAL DEALER "REPAIRED" IT AND THE REPAIR LASTED ALL OF A DAY. THE CRACK GOT PROGRESSIVELY BIGGER AND GM REFUSED TO COVER ANY OF THE COST TO REPLACE, TELLING US OUR ONLY OPTION WAS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE DASH AT A COST OF OVER $1200. WE HAVE HAD IT PATCHED BY A LOCAL REPAIR PLACE WHO DID A BETTER JOB THAN THE DEALER, BUT THE DASH STILL VIBRATES TO THE POINT OF SHAKING AND THE PATCH IS NOW COMING APART AGAIN. THE ACTUAL CRACK IS NOW OVER A 1/2" BIG. WE ARE WORRIED ABOUT THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYING AND THE SHARP PLASTIC CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY.

THIS MORNING AS I WAS DRIVING, I HEARD A VIBRATION SOUND COMING FROM THE DASH. SO I LOOKED OVER & I FIND A CRACK! NOT 1 BUT 2! OVER THE SPEEDOMETER & BY THE PASSENGER AIR BAGS. I'M SCARED ITS GONNA AFFECT THE PASSENGER AIRBAGS...

MY DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED FROM THE AIR BAG TO THE NEXT SHEET OF PLASTIC TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD. I HAD THIS REPLACED ONCE BEFORE WHEN THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND IT HAS NOW HAPPENED AGAIN, ALMOST A YEAR LATER. I AM CONCERNED THIS WILL AFFECT THE AIRBAG OR CAUSE THE DASHBOARD TO SPLINTER IF THE AIRBAG IT IS DEPLOYED.
