2013 GMC YUKON Complaints

THERE IS A CRACK IN MY DASHBOARD THAT COULD SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS OF THE STABILITRAK AND ABS SYSTEMS. I HAVE ALSO BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM THAT RUNS THE INSTRUMENTATION FOR THE AIR,HEAT AND BLOWER. THE MAIN PROBLEM IS THAT THERE IS A CRACK ON THE DASH IN THE LEFT HAND CORNER OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. THIS HAS BEEN WELL DOCUMENTED BY THOUSANDS ON THE INTERNET. I CALLED GM AND THEY SAID THERE ARE NO RECALLS BUT THEY ISSUED A CASE #. THIS CASE # APPLIES TO ALL THREE PROBLEMS FOR MY VEHICLE.

THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2013 GMC YUKON DENALI IS HAS BEGIN TO CRACK FROM THE WINDSHIELD TO JUST IN FRONT OF THE STEERING WHEEL. IT IS STARTING TO SPREAD TWO WAYS. THIS COULD BE A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD IF THE AIR BAGS DOESN'T DEPLOY PROPERLY BECAUSE OF THE BROKEN STRUCTURE OF THE DASHBOARD. IS THERE A VOLUNTARY GM RECALL OR A NHTSA RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM? THE VEHICLE IS WELL MAINTAINED AND THE CRACK SPREADS AS THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN.

THE YUKON THAT WE OWN HAS A CRACK THAT CONNECTS TO THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. WE BOUGHT A FULL WARRANTY (WAS A PRE-OWNED CAR) THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO COVER ALL, BUT WHEN WE TOOK IT TO THE GMC DEALER, THEY SAID IT'S NOT COVERED! I CALLED GMC DIRECTLY TELLING THEM I FEEL IT'S A SAFETY CONCERN SINCE IT'S CONNECTED TO THE AIRBAG AND THEY RESPONDED SAYING THAT ITS NOT A CONCERN AND THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE IT. IF THERE IS AN ACCIDENT AND MY PASSENGER AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED, I FEAR THAT PART OF THE DASH WILL COME FLYING OFF AS WELL. AFTER RESEARCHING, I SEE THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE GMC DASH. YET, GMC WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, GOING STRAIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN IT JUST CRACKED RIGHT IN FRONT OF US.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKING AROUND THE AIRBAG ON ITS OWN. FEEL THIS MAY BE A SAFETY HAZARD.

DASHBOARD HAS 2 CRACKS, ONE LOCATED ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL/STEERING WHEEL AS LONG AS 6 INCHES. THE OTHER CRACK IS LOCATED ON LEFT HAND SIDE ABOVE PASSENGER AIR BAG. THIS HAPPENED ON MY COMMUTE HOME.

DASHBOARD CRACKED BY FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG. SPONTANEOUS CRACK WITH NO EXTERNAL CAUSE. IT WAS NOT A HOT DAY. STATIONARY VEHICLE.
