| Description of the problem | I have a 2012 tahoe that has an craking issue with the dash board. One month ago in august,2016 i was driving and out of the blue a 1 1/2 inch crack suddenly appeared from the dash area into side passenger air bag area. Today is september 2016 and i went out to my car this morning to leave and noticed while i was starting my car that there was a now a 4 inch crack just above the counsel area in the dash. My vehicle just hit 40 thousand miles and this is just unexceptable for chevy to not take responsibility for something that has been happening since 2007 in many of there vehicles mainly the tahoe. My vehicle is very well maintained and still looks as it did the day i bought it and the cracks in the dash are to me a hazard especially the one around the air bag. |
