    I am concerned about the safety during a collision or airbag deployment from sharp plastic exposed due to the cracks in the dash cutting the airbag or shards of plastic becoming projectiles potentially causing injury to occupants. The dash in the truck cracked out of no where and is very poorly made. This should be replaced asap by automaker. *tr

    I noticed a crack in my dashboard about 5 months ago. This crack is directly beside the passenger side airbag and is about 1-2 inches long. The opposite end of the crack (not connected to the airbag) has splintered off into more than just one crack. My concern is if the air bag is deployed, will this cause shattering and debris to fly into the face of my passengers and myself? *tr

    Dash cracked at corner of where the passenger air bag is located, and just recently the dash has cracked above the instrument panel. My fear is that in the event that the air bags are deployed the air bag itself might be punctured or bodily injury caused due to shards of plastic being projected into the air. I have owned numerous vehicles and have never had a dash to crack (i have lived in texas my entire life)…

    My 2007 chevy tahoe ltz has developed cracks in the dashboard on the passenger and driver side. The passenger side crack is near the airbag deployment space and the driver side airbag runs from the back to the front of the dash. I am concerned about the airbag having difficulty deploying in an accident or pieces of the dashboard breaking away in it's current state that may turn into projectiles. *tr

    There are dashboard cracks in my 2007 chevy tahoe. One of the cracks is 2? Long, near the passenger side airbag. I have done extensive research on this problem to see if its an anomaly. It isn't. I am a member of a facebook group who currently has 250 members and have the exact same defect. It appears this is a manufacturing defect. The cracks are in the same location among hundreds, if not thousands of consumers. I…

    Vehicle dashboard began cracking on passenger side between defrost vent and passenger-side air bag. Then it cracked above the gauges on the driver's side, which now has started running toward driver. My concern is that the entire dashboard will shatter if either of the air bags explode. This seems to be a very common issue among 2007 gm tahoes, suburbans and yukons. The local dealer will not acknowledge that this is…

    The dash is cracked in my tahoe which gives me every reason to believe that if i were in a collision the dash would break apart and send projectiles into me or my family. This is a well known issue with gmt900 series vehicles and gm will do nothing!!! *tr

    I noticed a couple of large cracks in the dash after purchase. This vehicle is prone to dash cracks due to faulty plastic (online research). I'm concerned there may be a safety hazard with the crack around the airbag. *tr

    First owner of this vehicle. Noticing substantial cracks in the plastic dashboard including near the passenger air bag site. Could lead to possible tearing of airbag or plastic being thrown towards passengers if airbag were to deploy. Also have an issue with chrome peeling from the exterior door handles causing cuts to the hands when opening the door. Vehicle has not been abused in any way or used as a work truck.…

    Gm has a safety issue with dashboards cracking near where the airbag deploys on the passenger side of the vehicles. There is also cracking on the left side of the instrument pod. All cracks are in identical areas of these same model years and newer. I have two vehicles (2007 tahoe and 2007 avalanche with the same cracks and will file two complaints). *tr updated 01/29/14

The one on the passenger side is cracked at corner of airbag which is concerning due to an airbag deployment shards of plastic could be turn ed into projectiles. Noticed there are many, many of the same vehicles with identical cracks and locations of them. Thanks *tr

    Dashboard has cracked on the passenger side corner above the airbag. Dash has not been subjected to stress / pressure. It appears to be a manufacturer defect as this has happened to many individuals online. I fear that this crack will expand and can potentially affect the passenger airbag itself. As this vehicle is a '07 model, it should not crack after less than 5 years normal wear and tear. *tr
