I have a large crack going down the dashboard of my truck the stems directly from the passenger airbag. I have contacted both the dealer as well as chevrolet regarding this issue and have not been able to find a solution. I am concerned that if there would be some sort of an accident where the airbag deployed, my dash would either improperly support the airbag at explosion or pieces of scrap plastic would fly around…

My dash board in my vehicle is cracking for no reason! It is cracking in 2 different spots. One in front of driver but the one that really concerns me is the one on passenger side. The crack goes to the air bag and i'm so scared my bag will deploy randomly like the crack appeared or if it deploys upon impact sharp hard plastic edges can be harmful! This is not just cosmetic and even if it were chevrolet needs to be…

There is a serious safety risk which is not being addressed by my local chevy dealer. The propellant in some types of takata airbag inflators can degrade over time, especially after long term exposure in hot and humid regions. If the propellant degrades to a certain level, the inflators may rupture during deployment, causing serious or fatal injuries. I have a three year old son and am in the process of trying to…

I have noticed 2 cracks on the dashboard, one over the instrument panel and the other on the right corner just in front of the passenger side airbag compartment (crack extends out from the airbag compartment) on my dashboard. I am very concerned that airbag will not deploy correctly if i were in an accident or that the dashboard will splinter and cause severe injury if the airbag deployed.
