STRUCTURE:BODY
I TOO HAVE THE CRACKED DASHBOARD IN MY 2011 GMC DENALI. NOT ONLY IS IT A SAFETY HAZARD, BECAUSE APPARENTLY ITS A LABOR INTENSIVE JOB NO ONE WILL TAKE ON THE TASK OF FIXING IT. I BOUGHT THE REPLACEMENT DASH AND I CANT FIND ANYONE TO INSTALL IT. THE RATTLE NOISE IT CREATE IS UNIMAGINABLE AS NOW A LOCKING CLIP HAS BROKEN. I'M TOTALLY AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT TO DO. IT HAS ALSO DECREASED ITS TRADE IN VALUE. I WENT TO BUY ANOTHER VEHICLE AND THEY DROPPED THE VALUE BY 2,000.00 BECAUSE OF THE DASH. MY ONLY HOPE IS THAT I DON'T END UP IN AN AIR BAG INCIDENT AS I'M CONFIDENT THE DASH WILL SHATTER AND LAUNCH PROJECTILE PIECES.

STRUCTURE:BODY
OUR DASHBOARD CRACKED ON A 3 YEAR OLD CAR - THE LOCAL DEALER "REPAIRED" IT AND THE REPAIR LASTED ALL OF A DAY. THE CRACK GOT PROGRESSIVELY BIGGER AND GM REFUSED TO COVER ANY OF THE COST TO REPLACE, TELLING US OUR ONLY OPTION WAS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE DASH AT A COST OF OVER $1200. WE HAVE HAD IT PATCHED BY A LOCAL REPAIR PLACE WHO DID A BETTER JOB THAN THE DEALER, BUT THE DASH STILL VIBRATES TO THE POINT OF SHAKING AND THE PATCH IS NOW COMING APART AGAIN. THE ACTUAL CRACK IS NOW OVER A 1/2" BIG. WE ARE WORRIED ABOUT THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYING AND THE SHARP PLASTIC CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY.

THE DASHBOARD HAS PROGRESSIVELY BEING CRACKING FOR OVER A YEAR. IT HAS NOW BECOME VERY BAD IN TWO AREAS.

I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THE SPREADING RATE WILL INCREASE WITH PIECES POSSIBLY CREAKING OFF AND SHOULD AN ACCIDENT OCCUR THAT SHARD'S OF PLASTIC COULD INJURY PASSENGERS OR MY CHILDREN. I HAVE CONTACT GMC AND THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT THEY DO NOT SEE ANY PROBLEM AND THAT THEY WOULD NOT ADDRESS THIS SITUATION. AFTER REVIEWING THE INTERNET THOROUGHLY IT IS VERY APPARENT THAT THERE IS A DEFECT PROBLEM AND THEY DO NOT WISH TO ADDRESS. I AM MORE THAN DISAPPOINTED THAT GMC DO NOT TAKE THIS MATTER SERIOUSLY.
