IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS THE DASH HAS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES AND THE PAINT ON THE HOOD AND ROOF HAS CRACKED AND FADED. I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE HOOD REPAINTED BUT THE ROOF IS MORE EXTENSIVE AND SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE REPAINTED AFTER ONLY 6 YEARS. THE DASH IS CRACKED NEAR THE AIRBAG SO IF I'M IN AN ACCIDENT THE DASH WILL SPLINTER INTO THE FACES OF THE PASSENGERS.

DASH IS CRACKING AROUND AIRBAG POTENTIALLY COULD CAUSE PROJECTILES BEING TOSSED IN A ACCIDENT , CRACKING ALL OVER DASH

DASH IS CRACKED AROUND AIRBAG AND COLUMN , IN ACCIDENT DASH DEBRIS COULD CAUSE BODILY DAMAGE AS A PROJECTILE.

"DASHBOARD CRACK" IN 2016 I PURCHASED MY GMC YUKON DENALI XL FOR ABOUT $46,000.00 AT INGERSOLL AUTO OF DANBURY, CONNECTICUT. AT THE TIME OF PURCHASED MY YUKON WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY, BUT I DID PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. ON APRIL 25, 2019 I NOTICED A CRACK ON MY DASHBOARD JUST TOP OF MY INSTRUMENT PANEL. THAT SAME DAY I REACHED OUT TO GM AND FILED A REPORT. THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO AND THIS WAS NOT A RECALL OR A DEFECT THAT GM WOULD COVER BUT INSIST ME TO CONTACT A DEALER TO SEE ABOUT REPAIRS. ON OR ABOUT 11:30AM ON 4/25/19 I CONTACTED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT INGERSOLL AUTO OF PAWLING NY. THE SERVICE ADVISER I SPOKE TO TOLD ME HER NEVER HEAR ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND SAID THAT THE REPAIR WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE VALUE OF MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN DIMINISHED AS A RESULT OF THE DASHBOARD DEFECT. I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE OR WOULD NOT HAVE PAID AS MUCH FOR IT HAD I KNOWN OF THE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD'S PROPENSITY TO CRACK AND/OR THAT THE DEFECT CAN INTERFERE WITH THE PLANNED DEPLOYMENT OF THE DRIVER'S-SIDE AND PASSENGER'S-SIDE AIRBAGS.

MY DENALI HAS A BAD CRACK ON THE DASH BOARD AND I HIT A BUMP A PIECE OF THE PLASTIC FLEW AND CUT MY FACE , THE DASH IS GETTING WORSE AND THIS IS BECOMING A LIABILITY. I WILL BE CONTACTING MY ATTORNEY AND THE BBB, ABOUT THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE. I'M GLAD IT WAS ME AND NOT MY CHILDREN THAT GOT INJURED.

HAVE HAD 2 CRACKS IN MY DASHBOARD, PASSENGER SIDE FROM REAR/LEFT SIDE TOWARD WINDSHIELD FROM AIRBAG AND ANOTHER OVER INSTRUMENT PANEL. THEY HAVE BEEN THERE FOR OVER A YEAR, I DIDN'T REALIZE HOW COMMON THIS PROBLEM WAS OR I WOULD HAVE REPORTED SOONER. CONCERN RELATES TO DASHBOARD PIECES CAUSING INJURY IF AIRBAG DEPLOYED. VEHICLE IS PARKED INSIDE DAY AND NIGHT

DASHBOARD CRACKED IN 2 PLACES. PASSENGER SIDE ABOVE THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT AND DRIVER'S SIDE ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. I NOTICED THE PASSENGER SIDE CRACK ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO AND THE ONE ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL TODAY 2-3-19
