2008 Chevrolet TAHOE Air Bags Problems, Complaints and Defects

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	There are very large cracks on my dash board, the worst one being around the airbag plastic cover on the passenger side of the dash! You can see under the cover showing all of the components under the dash! The crack that is on the drivers side is above the steering column running from the defroster to the top by the speedometer displays, etc! I feel as if these cracks, specifically the one on the passenger side, is a huge safety hazard! Without crashing, there is no way of telling if the passenger side airbag will deflate properly due to this! I feel that to find this out, it should be at no ones expense! I have filed a complaint & a claim with gm a few months ago only to be told by the dealership that gm contacted on my behalf that the responsibility is mine if i wanted this problem to be fixed! The dealership informed me that it would cost $850 to $1000 to have the dash replaced! The dealership also said that they are very aware of this problem in the tahoes because they have replaced some dashes! Gm is not taking any responsibility for their faulty equipment & refuse to issue a recall! There are thousands of other customers who i know for a fact that are also facing the same problems with their trucks & suvs! Please do the right thing & issue a recall on these faulty & cheap made dash boards! Thank you!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
