| Description of the problem | I have two big cracks in my dashboard. These cracks are not from lack of maintenance or from sun-damage. This is from faulty product installed by gmc/chevrolet. I know of at least 3 other vehicles at my company that have the same issue and in the same spot. You can also pull story after story up online about this same issue and gm refuses to put a recall out for their faulty product. With the location of the cracks which are next to the airbags it is my fear that if there is an accident and the airbag deploys that it will cause shrapenal to fly abouth the vehicle. This is not only a flaw of gm but could cause serious damage to a passenger of the vehicle. |
