2013 GMC Yukon Denali problems

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

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.

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

A LITTLE OF A MONTH AGO WE NOTICED THERE WAS A CRACK FROM THE CORNER OF THE AIR BAG DOWN THE DASH. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AND HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT IF MY SERVICE CONTRACT WAS GOING TO COVER THIS SINCE I HAVE ONLY OWNED THIS VEHICLE A LITTLE OVER A YEAR. THE INFORMED ME IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME AND MY HUSBAND AS WE HAVE TWO SMALL KIDS AND ALWAYS HAVE KIDS IN THE CAR. SO I TRIED TO OPEN A CASE WITH GM CUSTOMER CARE HOPING THEY WERE GOING TO DO SOMETHING AS THIS WAS A GM CERTIFIED VEHICLE AND THAT WARRANTY JUST EXPIRED 2 MONTHS AGO. THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT ANY OF IT. THEY GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY AND TOLD ME IT WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAVE A RECALL ISSUED ON IT AND THEY AREN'T GOING TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME. THEY ADVISED ME TO TALK TO THE DEALERSHIP CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE MANAGER AND SEE IF THERE IS ANYTHING THEY COULD DO. I HAVE ALWAYS BOUGHT GM PRODUCTS BUT THIS HAS CHANGED MY MINE. PEOPLES LIVES COULD BE AT STAKE HERE WITH DASHBOARDS CRACKING ALL AROUND THESE AIRBAGS THAT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH. I ADVISED THERE ARE COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND THEY ALL ACT SURPRISED!! I DRIVE A BIG SUV FOR MORE PROTECTION AND RELIABILITY FOR MY CHILDREN AND NOW I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD WITH ONLY 69K MILES ON IT THAT WAS WORTH A TON OF MONEY THAT NOW IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK FOR ME WHEN I DRIVE WITH MY KIDS AND OTHER KIDS. BUCK UP GM THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY PROBLEM...BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED!

DASH ISSUES HAVE PLAGUED THE 2007-2014 GMC TRUCKS. MINE IS INCLUDED IN THIS. THERE IS CRACKING ALL AROUND THE AREA WHERE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS. I'M WORRIED THAT IN A DEPLOYMENT, PIECES OF DASH WOULD BE PROJECTED AT PASSENGERS. THE DASH MATERIAL IS CLEARLY VERY BRITTLE AND FLIMSY.

THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2013 GMC YUKON DENALI IS HAS BEGIN TO CRACK FROM THE WINDSHIELD TO JUST IN FRONT OF THE STEERING WHEEL. IT IS STARTING TO SPREAD TWO WAYS. THIS COULD BE A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD IF THE AIR BAGS DOESN'T DEPLOY PROPERLY BECAUSE OF THE BROKEN STRUCTURE OF THE DASHBOARD. IS THERE A VOLUNTARY GM RECALL OR A NHTSA RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM? THE VEHICLE IS WELL MAINTAINED AND THE CRACK SPREADS AS THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN.
