What owners wrote
A crack appeared in the dash on the corner of the airbag! Two months later another crack appeared over the instrument panel. Currently the entire center portion of the dash is sinking. Our fear is this will cause an airbag malfunction or if the airbag does deploy, the entire center portion of the dash will be thrown into our face. I contacted GM and they agreed to pay 60% to have a new dash put in.
My dash has cracked twice on my 2010 suburban. It cracked the first time approximately two years after I purchased the vehicle. Chevrolet replaced the dash under warranty. The dash cracked again approximately two years later. There appears to be some sort of design flaw with the dash. The dash does not have enough rigidity to accommodate the normal vibrations during the driving of the vehicle. The cracks in the dash are located next to the passenger side airbag.
