What owners wrote

Dashboard severely cracked around airbag and cluster, and may cause malfunctioning of air-bag. Also,there are countless complaints reported for same problem, dashboard cracks, in internet and most of them worried about the safety and high cost replacement.

Reported at 31,022 miles, March 2014

The dashboard has cracked in two separate place. I am extremely concerned that should the passenger air bag deploy that the section of dash now unattached will be send flying into the passenger compartment causing a fatal wound. This is now the 2nd vehicle I have purchased where this has occurred. There is an obvious safety defect in the dashboard of the full size GM truck/suv platform and a recall should be issued. The vehicle was stationary overnight when this cracking occurred both times.
