MY DASHBOARD IS CRACKING AROUND AIRBAG, A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH GM VEHICLES. I WAITING FOR THE DAY WHEN MY AIRBAG DEPLOYS AND I GET IMPALED WITH A PIECE OF PLASTIC. PLEASE HELP WITH THIS ISSUE.

MULTIPLE CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD IN AND AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND DRIVERS SIDE. PIECES BECOME A HAZARD IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION AS THEY COULD BECOME PROJECTILES. DASH CRACKS LEAD TO LOSS OF STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE DASH SYSTEM WHICH MAY ALSO IMPEDE THE ABILITY OF THE AIRBAG TO FUNCTION. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN WELL DOCUMENTED AND REPORTED BY MULTITUDES OF CONSUMERS THROUGHOUT THE NATION. GM/CHEVROLET REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE IS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM AND REFUSED TO PROVIDE ANY SUPPORT WHEN CONTACTED VIA PHONE. THE LOSS OF STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY ALSO POSES A HAZARD AS THE PIECES VIBRATE AND CAUSE A DISTRACTION FOR THE DRIVER. MY DASH BOARD WAS REPLACED AT APPROX. 80000 MILES DUE TO THE SAME ISSUE IN NEARLY THE SAME LOCATION. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD WARRANT A RECALL AND/OR A STREAMLINED AVENUE TO REPAIR THE KNOWN DEFECT. THERE ALSO SHOULD BE SOME REQUIREMENT FOR ENGINEERING TO REVIEW THE DESIGN AND REMEDY THE SITUATION FULLY.

DASH IS CRACKED IN 2 PLACES. ONE BY PASSENGER AIR BAG AND ONE IN MIDDLE.

THE FORWARD DASH HAS CONTYTO CRACK AND BREAK APARTVAT SEVERAL AREAS INCLUDING THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LOCATION. THIS IS A KNOW PROBLEM WITH GM AND THEY ONLY OFFER "GOODWILL" ASSISTANCE FOR CUSTOMERS JUST OUTSIDE THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. REPAIRS COST OVER 1000.00 FOR THIS ISSUE THAT CAN SOMETIMES HAVE TO BE DONE MULTIPLE TIMES. LOOKING TO FINALLY GETTING THIS ADDRESSED AND NOT SWEPT UNDER THE RUG.

THE TRUCK FRAME, BED AND CAB ARE COMPLETELY COVERED WITH RUST. UNCERTAIN HOW LONG THE FRAMED WILL BE SAFE IN ORDER TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE.
