    I have two cracks in the dashboard. One is on the passenger side right near the airbag and one in one the drivers side. I have read many complainants about this issue and it puzzles me why chevy would not do a recall. My 2011 is very well taken care of so it is not neglect on my part.

    Dash has two cracks right above the driver's steering section near the middle. It shakes while driving and causes a tremendous distraction due to the way it flaps. This is also reflected in the windshield during normal driving on interstates and normal state roads. The movement is most noticeable at speeds above 35 mph. I have had the vehicle checked out, tires aligned and balanced, it does not help. This is a…

    Air Bags · Unknown Or Other

    Dash is cracked in tow seperate areas. One above the steering wheel, and one above the passenger side air bag. This causes a major safety concern, in that if i was in an accident and the air bags deployed, flying debris could harm myself and my children. This cracks happened for no apparent reason, other than being cheaply made and installed. The vehicle was stationary and not touched when these cracks occurred.

The speaker doesn't appear to have any support for the weight of the speaker and the dash cracks have now grown towards the instrument panel and also by the driver side airbag. The…

    I bought my 2011 chevrolet tahoe about 4 years ago (used, but in great condition) - within a month my dash had cracked. Nothing that i did at all! My normal driving everyday keeps me with 20-30 miles maximum, on very well made roads (nothing extreme). I paid to get it fixed (the first time) and now 4 years later and it has cracked again. After the first time i paid to get it fixed, they actually didn't install the…
