Crash

This is a recall took my 2012 Surburban to dealership in leavenworth, KS they had vehicle for two weeks did not fix the airbag that is under recall they stated could not get parts for it. So what is the problem with our government system in place to fix these problems but the GM dealership is not fixing the air bag nor do they call and state they have the parts in stock now???
My dash on my 2012 Suburban cracked within 4 years of its manufactured date and it just keeps getting worse. If there were an accident it is so dry and cracked it will through hard plastic into the driver and passengers. I know of many other same and similar year models that have the same issue. Now that there is a passenger-side airbag recall would be the perfect time for GM to step up and fix this obvious flaw.
Dashboard is cracking. I understand the class action was dismissed. But this is so unfair that the customers have to pay to fix for problem caused by material problem.
Takata recall. The contact owns a 2012 Chevrolet Suburban. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 21V051000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The local dealer was contacted and it was confirmed that the part was not yet available. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Vin tool confirms parts not available.
I WAS SENT A SAFETY RECALL FORM & STILL HAVEN'T BEEN NOTIFIED THAT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. I AM WORRIED BECAUSE WE USE OUR FAMILY CAR A LOT. THANK YOU!

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

THE AIRBAG ERROR INDICATOR ON THE DASH ACTIVATES FREQUENTLY, ESPECIALLY AFTER DRIVING SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES IN ONE DAY. WHEN THE ERROR MESSAGE IS ACTIVATED, THE BACKUP CAMERA IMAGE IS PIXILATED. IT DOES NOT DO IT WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK. CHEVROLET SERVICE TECHNICIANS HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO RECOVER THE ERROR CODE OR REPLICATE THE ERROR MESSAGE. THIS IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM.
THERE ARE 2 LARGE CRACKS ON THE DASHBOARD ONE RUNNING LONGITUDINALLY ON AXIS OF STEERING COLUMN AND ANOTHER SPREADING FORWARD TOWARD DRIVER SIDE ON FORWARD DRIVER CORNER OF PASSENGER AIRBAG CUTOUT RADIUSED CORNER. I WAS WARNED AFTER I PURCHASED VEHICLE THAT IT WAS A SAFETY HAZARD IN EVENT OF AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. I AM REPORTING THE DATE AS THE DATE I PURCHASED VEHICAL BUT CRACK WAS PRESENT PRIOR TO THAT DATE FOR AN UNDETERMINED PERIOD OF TIME.
DASHBOARD HAS SLOWLY STARTED CRACKING. CAR IS GARAGE KEPT AND NOT DRIVEN IN EXTREME CONDITIONS TO WARRANT SUCH DISTRESS ON THE DASHBOARD

THE DASH IS CRACKED ON THE BOTH WINDSHIELD-EDGE CORNERS OF THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG COVER AND BROKEN OVER THE DRIVER-SIDE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.

IT HAS BEEN GLUED AND PATCHED BUT HAS CONTINUED TO DISINTEGRATE AND IS NOW COMPLETELY BROKEN. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN ON ROAD AND HIGHWAY. THE DASH HAS BEEN CRACKING AND BREAKING OVER A PERIOD OF 5 YEARS.

CRACKING DASHBOARD NEEDS REPLACEMENT, I HAVE REPLACED OUR CRACKING DASHBOARD AND WOULD LIKE TO RECEIVE SOME TYPE OF COMPENSATION FOR MY EXPENSE. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT IS ONGOING WITH ALL OF THESE TYPES OF VEHICLES.
OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS MY DASHBOARD HAS DEVELOPED NUMEROUS CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD. THERE ARE 2 CRACKS AT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG COVER ON THE TOP CORNERS AND A LONG CRACK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DASH ABOVE THE GAUGE CLUSTER GOING TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE NO SPECIFIC DATE WHEN THIS HAS HAPPENED. I AM PUTTING IN THIS COMPLAINT AS I HAVE SEEN THIS ON MULTIPLE VEHICLES OF THE SAME AGE AND LOOKING ONLINE OF ALL THE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME.

3 LARGE CRACKS ON DASH. GOING FROM WINDSHIELD TO DASH. IF I EVER NEED TO HAVE WORK DONE UNDER DASH, DASH WILL FALL APART. 3 CRACKS APPEARED FOR NO KNOW REASON.
SEVERAL CRACKES HAVE APPEARED IN THE TOP SECTION OF DASHBOARD
DASHBOARD HAS CRACK ABOVE GAUGE CLUSTER ON DRIVER SIDE AND ALSO CRACKED ON PASSENGER SIDE AT CORNER OF AIRBAG AREA. WITH DASHBOARD CRACK NEAR AIRBAG I BELIEVE IT COULD SEND SHARDS OF SHARP PLASTIC AT PASSENGER IF AIRBAG WERE TO GO OFF.

THE DASH OF MY VEHICLE CRACKED WHEN IT WAS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND NOW THE CRACK IS EVEN LARGER.
WENT TO BUY A NEW SUBURBAN, FOUND A GOOD USED ONE WITHOUT THE CRACKED DASH. WELL WITHIN 2 MONTHS WE NOW HAVE A CRACK IN OUR DASH. WERE TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD $1500 TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I FIND IT UNACCEPTABLE THAT CHEVY WOULD NOT TAKE CARE OF SUCH A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THEIR VEHICLES. HOW ARE THERE TONS OF OTHER BRAND VEHICLES WITHOUT THIS ISSUE? ALWAYS HAVE A SUNSHADE ON THE VEHICLE AND WAS IT ONCE A WEEK. I NOW WANT TO TRADE THIS FOR SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T HAVE SUCH A PROBLEM. CRACK LOOKS LIKE IT COULD INTERFERE WITH THE AIRBAG OPERATION. OR SEND SHARDS OF PLASTIC WHEN AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED. IT HAPPENED PARKED IN OUR GARAGE OVER NIGHT.

THERE WERE NO INJURIES SUSTAINED. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS STILL OPERATIONAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT CURRENTLY SUBJECTED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V112000 (STEERING). NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.
Crash
DASH BOARD CRACKING NEXT TO AIRBAG AND ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL. CRACKING BEGIN END OF 2017 AND HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. I UPLOADED 2 IMAGES.
"SERVICE AIR BAG" WARNING ON DASH WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. WARNING HAS STAY ACTIVE SINCE THAT TIME. NO CODES FOR EXPLANATION FOUND.
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY I HEAR A POP AND NOTICE A PIECE MISSING OUT OF MY DASH ABOVE THE AIRBAG AND THEN BEGIN TO NOTICE THE CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD RUN ACROSS THE DASH TO THE DRIVERS SIDE. I HAVE NOTICED OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT GM DASHBOARD AND BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO THE CRACK BEING AT THE AIRBAG AND RUNNING ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE DASHBOARD. IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED IT COULD SEND HALF OF THE DASHBOARD INTO THE FRONT SEATS OF THE VEHICLE.
ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO, I NOTICED A CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD AT THE TOP LEFT CORNER OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. A FEW DAYS LATER, A SMALL CRACK APPEARED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OVER THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. WITHIN JUST A FEW DAYS, THAT SMALL CRACK GREW APPROXIMATELY 6 INCHES AND IS NOW ON THE HUMP OVER THE CLUSTER.

WHEN MY CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 2012 IS LOCKED USING THE KEY FOB OR REMOTE START, A PERSON INSIDE THE CAR CANNOT UNLOCK THE DOORS OR TAILGATE FROM THE INSIDE (VIA THE DOOR UNLOCK BUTTONS NEAR THE DOOR HANDLES OR THE TAILGATE BUTTON) TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. EXAMPLE, PARENT ACCIDENTALLY LEAVES CHILD IN CAR, EXITS CAR, USES FOB TO LOCK DOORS; CHILD NOW CANNOT UNLOCK THE DOOR OR TAILGATE USING THE UNLOCK BUTTONS BY THE DOOR HANDLES NOR BY USING THE TAILGATE OPEN BUTTON. THE PERSON INSIDE THE CAR IS LOCKED INSIDE AND CANNOT EXIT IF THEY DO NOT HAVE A KEY WITH WHICH TO TURN ON THE CAR OR A FOB WITH WHICH TO UNLOCK THE CAR. WHEN THE CAR IS LOCKED WITH THE FOB A PERSON INSIDE THE CAR CANNOT GET OUT OF THE CAR USING ANY BUTTON OR HANDLE INSIDE THE CAR. THIS OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND THE IGNITION OFF. TWO ADULTS TESTED THIS MULTIPLE TIMES AND TRIED ALL POSSIBILITIES TO UNLOCK AND GET OUT OF THE CAR FROM THE INSIDE WHEN IT HAD BEEN LOCKED BY FOB OR REMOTE START. I HAVE A VIDEO DEMONSTRATING THIS WHICH I AM HAPPY TO SHARE, BUT BELIEVE THAT I CANNOT UPLOAD BELOW AS IT IS NOT ONE OF THE PERMITTED FORMATS.
CRACKING DASHBOARD POSES A SAFETY THREAT TO PEOPLE INSIDE THE VEHICLE AS WELL THE DRIVER IN LACK OF DEPLOYMENT OF THE FRONT AIRBAGS. HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE VEHICLES OF THIS YEAR.
FRONT DASHBOARD IS CRACKING AROUND INSTRUMENTAL PANEL AND AROUND DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAGS.

TAKATA RECALL- ENGINE IS BEING REPLACED
WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THIS MOSTLY OCCURS ON SURFACE STREETS, THE STABILITRAK LIGHTS WILL COME ON AND THEN SHUT OFF. THE PROBLEM HAS PROGRESSED AND THE LIGHTS WILL NOW COME ON AND THEN BLACK OUT THE DASHBOARD. THE CAR HAS EVEN COMPLETELY LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING AND THEN COME BACK ON. THIS IS QUITE TERRIFYING! THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED AND IS BRAND NEW. THE ONLY TIME THE CAR LOST POWER ON THE HIGHWAY WAS WHEN THE CAR WAS MOVING AT A SLOWER RATE OF BETWEEN 30-50 MPH.
