Dash board on my gmc truck is cracked in three places. One of the places is a corner on the dash that encases the airbag. I have religiously covered the dash since day one, because I had a similar problem on my 2007 sierra. Dash cracked in one place. Dealer replaced it for free.
Unknown or Other · reported May 25, 2018
The dashboard has cracked by the airbag and by the instrument panel in three different locations!! Ugh!! Get a denali they said!! Luxury they said!!
Electrical System · at 50,000 miles · reported Apr 26, 2018
Around 50k the side detection warning system and park assist quit working. Upon taking it in for repairs we find that this is a major problem for this vehicle, and replacement parts are at a shortage..due to high volume of repairs. We called GM customer care and they state there is no recall and our repair will be over $1000 to fix this problem. We feel this is unfair practice since they are aware they have this problem.
Air Bags · reported May 18, 2017
Dashbord separating down the center. When the vehicle is in motion, the dashboard flaps. This is a default issue with the company. Also, crack on the left side passenger airbag. This is a serious safety concern. If the airbag deploys the entire dashboard with dismantle causing serious bodily harm.
