DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS AND LOW-BEAM RUNNING LIGHTS SUDDENLY BECAME INOPERABLE ON 1/15/17 (EST. ~150K MILES). THIS WAS NOTICED DURING THE DAY, SO SAFETY RISK WAS MINIMIZED, BUT THE VEHICLE IS NOW INOPERABLE DURING THE EVENING (ALTHOUGH HIGH BEAMS ARE STILL FUNCTIONAL, AS WELL AS PARK/BLINKERS). HTTP://M.GM.OEMDTC.COM/RECALL/RCSB-15V519-4439.PDF THERE IS A MAY 2016 GM ISSUED RECALL AFFECTING SIMILAR VEHICLES WITH YEARS 2005-2009, BUT GM SAID MY VEHICLE IS NOT CURRENTLY ON THE LIST. I REQUESTED INFORMATION TO EVALUATE MY VEHICLE TIME FOR ADDITION TO THE RECALL AND THEY INITIATED A VEHICLE COMPLAINT # 8-2672247033 ON THEIR END. THEY ALSO POINTED ME TO THIS WEBSITE TO FILE WITH NHSP, SO THAT I COULD FILE THIS NOTICE TO BETTER DETERMINE IF THIS RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO OTHER GMC MODELS WITHIN 2005-2009. I NEED TO VERIFY IF THE PN# FOR MY HEADLAMP DRIVER MODULE (HDM) IS ALSO [13506836]. P.S. THE TITLE OF THE GM RECALL FOR SIMILAR VEHICLES IS "14291 LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS AND DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS (DRL) COULD FAIL TO ILLUMINATE".

HAVE A YUKON AND THE DASH BOARD IS CRACKED AT BOTH SIDES OF AIRBAG ON PASSENGER SIDE AND ABOVE THE GAUGE CLUSTER.THE PLASTIC IS VERY BRITTLE AND MY CONCERNS IS IF THERE WAS EVER A CAR WRECK AND THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED IT WOULD SEND PLASTIC PROJECTILES THROUGHOUT VEHICLE WHICH THE VEHICLE IS USED TO CARRY MY 1 AND 2 YEAR OLD CHILDREN DAILY.I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A DEFECT OR A RECALL CONSIDERING ALMOST ALL THESE VEHICLES ALL CRACK IN THE SAME SPOT I FEEL IT WAS A POOR DESIGN BY GMC AND AT OVER 1000 DOLLARS TO HAVE IT FIXED IS JUST CRAZY . THANKS FOR YOUR TIME

THIS SUMMER MY DASHBOARD SEVERELY CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES. IT IS SO BADLY CRACKED I CANNOT IMAGINE HOW IT DOESN'T POSE A SAFETY RISK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC YUKON DENALI. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKING THROUGH THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE AIR BAGS MIGHT DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 165,000.

DASH CRACKED ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL, ACROSS TO PASSENGER SIDE, AS WELL AS FROM SPEAKER TO FRONT OF DASH. PIECES ARE MISSING IN FRONT OF SPEAKER. CRACKING STARTED ABOUT 2010 AND HAS CONTINUED TO GET WORSE. I AM AFRAID SOME ONE WILL GET GRAVELY INJURED IF THERE WAS A WRECK. OR EVEN IF THERE IS NOT A WRECK.

MY DASH IS CRACKED IN A COUPLE PLACES - BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL, AS WELL AS NEXT TO THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS IF THE AIRBAG GOES OFF THAT DASH WILL EXPLODE AND HURT SOMEONE WITH SHARP DASH PIECES. I NOTICED THIS A COUPLE YEARS AGO. I TOOK IT IN TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT, BUT FOUND OUT THERE WAS NO COVERAGE AND IT WOULD BE AT LEAST $1000 REPAIR. I AM DISAPPOINTED TO SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE, AND GMC ISN'T DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL GMC'S AND HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A PROUD OWNER. I HOPE THEY INTEND TO DO RIGHT BY THEIR CUSTOMERS THAT PAID A LOT OF MONEY FOR THEIR VEHICLES.

THE FRONT DASH HAS CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG, AS WELL AS AROUND THE SPEAKER AND OVER THE STEERING COLUMN. THE CRACKS INITIALLY STARTED AS SMALL CRACKS A FEW YEARS AGO, BUT HAVE DRASTICALLY WORSENED OVER THIS PAST YEAR AND I NOW BELIEVE IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD, ESPECIALLY IF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WERE TO DEPLOY. IT'S SO BAD THAT IF IT GETS ANY WORSE THE WHOLE SECTION BETWEEN THE SPEAKER AND PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG MAY BREAK OFF.

THE CHROME LININGS ON THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES OF THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE AND FRONT PASSENGER SIDE ARE PEELING. THE PEELED EDGE OF THE MATERIAL IS VERY SHARP, AND MY WIFE AND I BOTH HAVE SUSTAINED CUTS TO OUR LEFT HANDS DUE TO THIS.
