2011 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 SUV 4WD

I purchased my Suburban used in July 2018. In 2019 I realized the pretensioner for the driver's seatbelt doesn't work. I have asked my dealership if they could ask Chevy to pay for this repair, but they said they have to wait for the official recall. In my research, I have learned of other Chevy vehicles (Traverse & Malibu) in 2011 with the same problem. I have not contacted Chevrolet directly with this problem (yet). The flexible steel steel cable that connects the seatbelt to the front outboard seating positions may fatigue and separate over time.

The dash has broken apart on the top in front of the driver. It constantly vibrates and makes a loud distracting noise. There is no way to stop this noise and it causes the driver to constantly hold the broken part down with their hand taking their attention off the road. Our Chevrolet dealer inspected it and said they've had lots of similar complaints. He also said it would cost us $2,000 to fix the problem.

THE DASHBOARD CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AREA AND ABOVE THE TOP OF THE DRIVER SIDE INSTRUMENT PANEL.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 21V050000 (AIR BAGS) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT CALLED RALPH SELLERS CHEVROLET (15015 FLORIDA BLVD, BATON ROUGE, LA 70819, (225) 529-9130) AND IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE PART WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

THIS IS A FLORIDA VEHICLE WHERE HEAT AND HUMIDITY (THE MAJOR FACTORS IDENTIFIED WITH FAILURES OF THESE AIRBAGS/INFLATORS) CAN CAUSE MY SUBURBAN TO BE A HIGH RISK TO ME AND MY FAMILY. WE SUBMITTED FOR THIS RECALL IN 2016 AND HAVE YET TO BE CONTACTED ON STATUS OR ESTIMATED TIME FOR THE PARTS/PROCEDURES TO BE READY TO COMPLETE THIS REPAIR. AS GM DISAGREES WITH THIS RECALL, THEY APPEAR TO BE STALLING IN HOPES THAT THE VEHICLES WILL JUST BE RETIRED BEFORE THEY HAVE TO REPAIR THEM. WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL PEOPLE DIE FOR THE NHTSA TO FORCE THE HAND ON GM TO IMPLEMENT THIS RECALL.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. I SEE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON GM VEHICLES AND IT AFFECTS BOTH MY 2011 SUBURBAN AND 2012 SILVERADO WITH 5.3 FLEX FUEL ENGINES. THE SUBURBAN IS MORE NOTICEABLE SINCE WE USE IT FOR LONG ROAD TRIPS. THE TRUCK IS MOSTLY CITY DRIVING. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE CAUSED BY THE AFM AND PCV. I WILL BE INSTALLING THE UPGRADED VALVE COVER IN HOPES OF PREVENTING A MAJOR ENGINE FAILURE IN THE FUTURE. IT WOULD BE NICE IF GM RECALLED THESE ENGINES WITH AN ADEQUATE FIX. I ONLY NOTICE BURNING OIL ON STARTUP COMING FROM THE EXHAUST. CURRENT MILEAGE ON THE SUBURBAN IS 104,000. I HAVE NOT TOUCHED ANYTHING IN THE ENGINE BAY OR CABLE COVERS YET. PLEASE RESPOND QUICKLY IF I SHOULD NOT. THANK YOU, [XXX] REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC

I'M WRITING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE GM HAS YET TO ISSUE A SOLUTION FOR THE RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS. WHEN WILL GM ISSUE THE FIX, WITH ALL THESE NEW RECALLS COMING OUT ON THE TAKATA AIR BAGS I AM DEEPLY CONCERNED WITH WHY THIS ISSUE HASN'T BEEN ADDRESSED WITH MY VEHICLE.

DASH CRACKING AROUND AIRBAG HOUSING

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED AND WAS ALREADY CRACKED WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR. *TR

A CRACK HAS FORMED ON THE DASHBOARD ABOVE THE GAUGES AND STEERING WHEEL.

ENGINE LIGHT ON-DIAGNOSIS P0455. LAST 2YRS TOOK TO MANY REPAIR SHOPS. REPLACED, GAS CAP, PURGE VALVE, CANISTER VALVE, CHARCOAL CANISTER. TOOK TO CHEVY. THEY REPLACED PURGE VALVE BECAUSE THEY SAID OTHER MECHANICS USED NON CHEVY PARTS. ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. CHEVY DID SMOKE TEST AND SWORE IT WAS THE FUEL SENSOR COST $1200+. ENGINE LIGHT BACK ON AFTER A WEEK. ANOTHER SMOKE TEST AND NOW PRESSURE TEST BLEW A SMALL SECTION OF FUEL TANK WHERE IT NOW LEAKS. CHEVY SAID THE SEAL MOST LIKELY NOT SEATED PROPERLY AND I NEED A NEW FUEL TANK ABOUT $1000. BUT THEY CAN'T GUARANTEE THIS IS THE CAUSE OF THE ENGINE LIGHT. I CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER $1000 ESPECIALLY IF THIS DOESNT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. ALREADY SPENT THOUSANDS FIXING DIFFERENT PARTS. VEHICLE GETS ABOUT 12MPG AND HAS IN THE PAST LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING AS IF NOT ENOUGH FUEL IS GETTING THROUGH BUT THAT HASNT HAPPENED IN SOME TIME. WONDER IF ANYONE ELSE HAVING THIS P0455 ISSUE?

THE DASH HAS DEVELOPED 2 CRACKS SIMILAR TO THAT REPORTED BY OTHER OWNERS. THE FIRST CRACK IS IN THE UPPER LEFT CORNER OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. THE SECOND CRACK IS FROM THE LOWER LEFT OF THE SPEAKER. IF IN AN ACCIDENT, DASH PIECES COULD BREAK OFF AND BECOME FLYING PROJECTILES.

UNSAFE TO DRIVE SPECIALLY DRIVING OVER 40 MILES

DASHNOARD IS CRACKING FOR NO REASON AT ALL . THEY ALL HAVE THIS ISSUE . POORLY MADE . IN A AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT IT CAN SHATTER AND YOU WILL HAVE SHARDS OF PLASTIC FLYING EVERYWHERE. THE ISSUE HAPPENS OVER TIME . SOME SOONER THEN OTHERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE RPMS REDUCED TO 0 AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, ALL THE DOORS UNLOCKED AND LOCKED AND THE RADIO BEGAN TO TURN ON AND OFF. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT HAD TO WAIT A COUPLE OF MINUTES BEFORE SHE WERE ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY FIVE TIMES. THE CONTACT CALLED RAINBOW CHEVROLET (LOCATED AT 2020 W AIRLINE HWY, LA PLACE, LA 70068, 985-718-4683), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURES WERE RELATED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V827000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 141,000. THE VIN WAS INVALID.*JB

IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE SUBMITTED TO NOTIFY ME OF THE IMPORTANT RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE. GENERAL MOTORS HAS BEEN UNABLE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM, NOR REPLACE OR FIX THE ISSUE. (ID# 16V381). MY OTHER VEHICLE, OF A DIFFERENT MANUFACTURER, WAS QUICKLY CORRECTED AND MADE SAFE. IT IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE FOR GM TO LEAVE THIS ISSUE FOR SO LONG UNRESOLVED. NOTICE WAS MAILED JULY 2016, IT IS NOW NOVEMBER 2019. MORE THAN 3 YEARS FOR A REPAIR OF PROPELLANT THAT MAY DEGRADE CAUSING THE INFLATORS TO "RUPTURE DURING DEPLOYMENT, CAUSING SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURIES." THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. THREE YEARS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR GM TO DELAY.

AIR BAG FOR THIS 2011 SUBURBAN HAS BEEN IN RECALL FOR 9 YEARS WITH "RECALL INCOMPLETE, REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE". I THINK 9 YEARS FOR A RECALL SOLUTION IS ENOUGH TIME - ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE IS NO WAY TO DISABLE THE AIR BAGS. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT MY RECOURSE IS WHEN A FAMILY MEMBER IS KILLED BY SHRAPNEL.

FUEL LEVEL SENSOR FAILED CAUSING FUEL TRANSFER PUMP TO OVERFILL FRONT FUEL TANK. CAUSING FRONT FUEL TANK TO EXPAND AND DEVELOP A FUEL LEAK.

THE AIRBAGS ON MY 2011 CHEVY SUBURBAN HAVE ALMOST NEVER WORKED SINCE OWNING THE VEHICLE. IT HAS BEEN TO MULTIPLE SHOPS FOR THE AIRBAGS AND NOT ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO FIX IT. THEY ALL HAVE GOTTEN IT TO GO AWAY FOR A DAY OR TWO BUT NOT A SINGLE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN ABLE TO FIX IT. THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE AND I'M STUCK WITH IT. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 60,000ISH MILES BUT HAS NO VALUE DUE TO THIS ISSUE.

VEHICLE RECENTLY REACHED 160,000 MILES. MAINTENANCE IS UP TO DATE. TRANSMISSION APPEARS TO HAVE AN INTERMITTENT FAULT WITH ITS OPERATION AS IT WILL THROW ITSELF OUT OF DRIVE WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. WE ARE UNABLE TO SAFELY DRIVE THIS VEHICLE NOW DUE TO ITS UNPREDICTABILITY.

ON MY VEHICLE BRAKE OIL WAS LEAKING MY MECHANIC FIND THAT MASTER CYLINDER LEAK. AFTER CHANGING THE MASTER CYLINDER WHEN I START DRIVING MY BRAKES GOT LOCKED. I PARK THE CAR WHEN IT'S COOL DOWN BRAKE RELEASED BUT SAME THING HAPPENED WHEN I START DRIVING . SO MY MECHANIC CHANGED THE BRAKE BOOSTER BUT NOW STRANGE THING HAPPENING THAT BRAKE PEDAL GOES ALL THE WAY DOWN TO FLOOR AND IT'S BARELY BRAKES. JUST LEFT THE SUV ON A CHEVORELLET DEALER SHIP SEE WHAT THEY WILL SAY. BUT THIS IS DEFINITELYA SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THERE IS NO WAY BRAKE SHOULD GO ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR AND BARELY BRAKE.

MY NAME IS [XXX] I'M THE OWNER OF A 2011 CHEVY SUBURBAN AND ONE DAY I TOOK MY WIFE TO THE HOSPITAL FOR SURGERY AND WHEN I CAME OUT AFTER 4 HOURS MY SUBURBAN HAD 2 CRACKS ON THE DASHBOARD ONE NEXT TO THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND ONE NEXT TO THE LEFT ON TOP OF THE GAUGES PANEL.

2011 CHEVY SUBURBAN WITH @110,000 NEEDS LIFTERS REPLACED. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON COMPLAINT WITH CHEVY AND GMC OWNERS. CONSISTENT PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS/SUV/TRUCKS. WHILE DRIVING ON I95 STOP CAR MESSAGE CAME ON.

IN EARLY 2018, WE NOTICED A VERY SMALL CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD JUST ABOVE THE STEERING COLUMN COWLING AND DISCUSSED SAME WITH OUR DEALERSHIP. WE WERE TOLD THEY'D CALLED GM AND THEN ADVISED US THAT WE'D NEED TO PAY $800 AND THEY'D PICK UP THE REST. KNOWING THIS WAS NOT OUR FAULT AND HAD TO BE A DEFECT, WE REFUSED AND HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THE PROBLEM RESOLVED. SINCE THAT TIME, THE CRACK HAS NOW RUN TO BE SEVERAL INCHES LONG. THE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD IS A SAFETY RISK. GM HAS KNOWLEDGE OF THE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARDS AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. GM HAD DEFRAUDED THEIR CUSTOMERS WITH UNFAIR AND DECEPTIVE CONDUCT AND HAS CONTINUED TO SELL/REPLACE DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT ABOUT 60 MPH, MY SUBURBAN STARTED TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING, NO LIGHTS APPEARED ON MY DASH. LOCKS, RADIO AND FRONT LIGHTS STARTED TO GO OFF AND ON AND A COMPLETE LOSS OF ACCELERATION HAPPENED. WHEN COMPLETELY STOPPED THE ISSUE RESOLVED. STILL NO INDICATORS OF ANYTHING WRONG ON MY DASH, PROCEEDED TO MOVE THE CAR OUT OF THE FREEWAY AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. MINUTES LATER THE CAR ACTED NORMAL AGAIN. THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY VEHICLE IS CRACKING IN TWO DIFFERENT PLACES. ONE AREA IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE DRIVERS SEAT AND THE OTHER IS IN FRONT OF THE PASSENGERS SEAT WHERE THE FRONT AIRBAG IS LOCATED. I JUST NOTICED THIS PROBLEM ON NOVEMBER 18, 2018.

VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED. ALL ELECTRONICS SHUT DOWN, UNABLE TO ACTIVATE HAZARD LIGHTS. PREVIOUSLY PAYED TO FIX ABS LIGHT/SENSOR. DASH CRACKED DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE. HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES PRIOR.

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/STEERING WHEEL - THIS POSES A SAFETY HAZARD WITH THE AIRBAGS AND POTENTIAL DEBRIS IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT - HEARD A NOISE AND NOTICED THE CRACK ON 11/9/2018.

DASH CRACKED ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL DASH CRACKED AT CORNER OF PASSENGER AIR BAG

CRACKED DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FROM THE AIRBAG TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD AND ON THE DRIVERS SIDE STARTED AT THE SEAM AND IS CREEPING TOWARD THE STEERING WHEEL ABOVE THE SPEEDOMETER.

WHILE IN PARK IN OUR DRIVEWAY, ENGINE TURNED OFF, AND KEYS IN MY HAND THE SUBURBAN ROLLED BACKWARDS DOWN OUR DRIVEWAY, KNOCKING ME DOWN AND ROLLING OVER MY LEG WHERE IT THEN STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. 911 WAS CALLED AND I WAS TRANSPORTED FROM THE SCENE TO THE HOSPITAL WHERE I WAS ADMITTED. WE ARE HIGHLY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS INCIDENT

DASHBOARD IS ALL CRACKED AROUND SIDE AIRBAG AND MAY AFFECT DEPLOYMENT. DASH IS ALSO CRACKED AT ON DRIVER SIDE. CRACKS JUST APPEARED NO ACCIDENT, REGULAR AROUND TOWN DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS).

THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE AND DID NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WOULD ARRIVE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

INTERIOR DASH BOARD IS CRACKING NEAR AIR BAG, SEVERAL PLACES ON VEHICLE

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE ELECTRIC WILL FLICKER AND THEN THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL APPEAR ON THE DASH. THIS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING, PARKING AND STARTING THE ENGINE. UNABLE TO TURN OFF THE LIGHT WITH THE BUTTON ON THE DASH BOARD.

MY VEHICLES ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. ALL ELECTRICAL IN THE CAR INCLUDING POWER DOOR LOCKS START TO OPEN AND CLOSE WHEN ENGINE SHUTS OFF AND POWERS BACK ON. EXTREMELY UNSAFE ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING WITH ALL MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR.

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE DEALERS TO CONTACT ME EVER SINCE THE RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED. I HAVE CALLED 4 DEALERS IN MY AREA EVERY MONTH WITH EACH TIME BEING TOLD WE'RE WORKING ON IT. I'VE GOT YOUNG CHILDREN WHO SIT IN THE 2ND ROW AND AM PREGNANT, DUE IN OCTOBER. WILL THERE BY ANY MOVEMENT REGARDING THIS RECALL? IT IS WORRISOME THAT IT SEEMS TO HAVE SLOWED IF NOT, STOPPED.

DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED AROUND THE AIR BAG AREA. I AM CONCERNED THAT IF IN AN ACCIDENT, THIS COULD AFFECT AIR BAG PERFORMANCE OR DASHBOARD COULD COME APART EASIER ON IMPACT AND CAUSE BODILY HARM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. WHILE DRIVING DOWN A MOUNTAIN AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE BRAKE LINES FRACTURED. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAUSE THE VEHICLE DROVE THROUGH A STOP SIGN. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE INTO A PARKING LOT. THE DEALER (DEAN PATTERSON CHEVROLET, 101 PLEASANT VALLEY BLVD, ALTOONA, PA 16602, (814) 942-2222) WAS CONTACTED AND INDICATED THAT THERE WAS EXTENSIVE RUST AND CORROSION, AND THE BRAKE LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

AS I AM DRIVING THE VEHICLE TURNS ON AND OFF WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING. ALSO THE ELECTRICAL GOES BAD IN THE CAR CAUSING THE NAVIGATION AND RADIO TONGO ON AND OFF. STABILTRAK GOES OFF ON THE VEHICLE AND THEN COMES BACK ON. TODAY AS I AM DRIVING MY CAR LOST POWER AND NOW THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON.

THE DASHBOARD IS SEVERELY CRACKED IN MULTIPLE SPOTS. I FEAR IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT MY AIRBAGS WOULD BE COMPROMISED. NOT TO MENTION ONE CRACK IS ON THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WHICH IS RECALLED DUE TO THE TAKATA INFLATORS RECALL THAT SEEMS TO NEVER BE RESOLVED. I AM AWARE OF MANY GMC/CHEVROLET OWNERS THAT HAVE THIS ISSUE.

OIL BLOW BY WHEN DROPS TO 4 CYLINDERS, TOOK TO DEALERSHIP WHILE UNDER WARRANTY TO PUT IN A BYPASS VALVE TO "SEE" IF WILL FIX, DIDN'T SO NEXT STEP WAS TO HAVE BOTTOM HALF OF ENGINE REBUILT WHICH I HAD TO PAY FOR OUT OF POCKET WHICH THEN IN TURN ENDED UP BLOWING UP MY WHOLE ENGINE EITHER BECAUSE THE LIFTERS GOT TO HOT & WARP(WHICH WAS THE CAUSE ORIGINALLY FOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION AS THE HEADS) OR THE FACT THAT THE DEALERSHIP SANDED THE HEADS WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED METAL SHAVINGS TO DISPERSE THROUGH THE ENGINE. EITHER WAY THE ISSUE BEGAN WHILE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY AS HAD BEEN DEALING WITH DEALER FOR 2 YEARS WHEN ISSUE BEGAN TO THE DATE ENGINE BLEW. HAD DEALER PUT BACK TOGETHER TO TAKE TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP FOR 2ND OPINION AND THEY ALSO SAID IT'S BEEN A KNOW ISSUE WITH THE SUBURBAN FROM 2007-2011 BUT IS NOT A RECALL AS OF YET - I WANT MY MONEY BACK, I SHOULD NOT HAVE HAD TO PAY FOR THE "SEE IF THIS WORKS PART", THE BOTTOM HALF OF ENGINE TO BE REBUILT, & THEN A NEW ENGINE WHEN GM & DEALERSHIPS KNOW THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR 4 YEARS!!!! TOTALLY NOT ACCEPTABLE. I'M NOT EVEN INCLUDING ALL THE TIME & GAS TAKEN AS HAD TO TAKE VEHICLE TO DEALER TO TEST OIL LEVELS EVERY 1,000 MILES FOR 2 YEARS - AGAIN WHEN A KNOWN ISSUE. HAVE PAPERWORK FROM DEALERS ON HAND.

FRONT DIFFERENTIAL HAS LOCKED UP, STEERING IS IMPOSSIBLE

FUEL LEAK HAS DEVELOPED BETWEEN TWO FUEL LINES THAT HAVE BEEN RUBBING TOGETHER FROM THE DATE OF MANUFACTURE UNTIL 4/23/18. THIS LEAK DEVELOPED LESS THAN INCHES FROM THE EXHAUST SYSTEM ON THE BRADED LINE PORTION OF THE FUEL LINES NEAR THE CONNECTIONS AT THE FUEL TANK END. THE ISSUE WAS NOTICED AS I WAS DRIVING IN RUSH HOUR BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC ON 395 NORTH IN WASHINGTON DC THROUGH THE 3RD ST. TUNNEL. THE ODOR OF GASOLINE WAS DETECTED, BUT THOUGHT TO BE COMING FROM ELSEWHERE. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN ANOTHER MILE BEFORE I REALIZED THE SOURCE WAS MY VEHICLE. WHEN I PARKED IT I NOTICED FUEL POOLING UNDER IT AT THE TRANSMISSION CROSS MEMBER. AFTER IT COOLED, I WENT UNDER IT AND DISCOVERED TO CAUSE OF THE LEAK. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED HOME VIA AAA. THE MILEAGE AT THE MOMENT CANNOT BE OBTAINED BECAUSE THE DASH IS DIGITAL WHICH CAUSES THE FUEL SYSTEM TO ENERGIZE AND SPRAY FUEL WHEN TURNED ON.

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET ANY DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THE AIRBAGS THAT ARE BEING RECALLED.

THE DASHBOARD CAP CRACKED FOR NO REASON AT THE CORNER OF THE AIRBAG AND ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS THERE WILL BE PLASTIC FROM THE DASHBOARD CAP BLOWN ALL OVER THE INTERIOR OF THE CABIN DURING AN ACCIDENT.

TAKATA RECALL: AVAILABLE ONLINE INFORMATION TELLS ME THAT AS THE AIRBAGS AGE, THEY BECOME MORE SENSITIVE TO FAILURE. ALSO, FLORIDA SEEMS TO HAVE A HIGHER FAILURE RATE THAN MOST STATES DUE TO HEAT AND HUMIDITY. I KEEP RECEIVING NOTICES IN THE MAIL TELLING ME TO GET REPAIRS, BUT ALL GM DEALERSHIPS CONTACTED HAVE INFORMED ME THAT GM IS NOT PROVIDING PARTS REPLACEMENTS.I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS CONDITION AND FEEL I SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET A PROMPT REPAIR.

TAKATA RECALL ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO, I RECEIVED A CARD INFORMING ME ABOUT THE AIR BAG INFLATORS BEING DEFECTIVE. I CALLED THE DEALER THAT I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM AND THEY TRANSFERRED ME TO PARTS DEPARTMENT. UPON STATING THEY HAD NOT RECEIVED THE REPLACEMENT PARTS, THEY ADVISED TO CALL BACK LATER. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 2 HEARS BUT THEY STATE THE PARTS HAVE NOT COME IN. I DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING MYSELF OR PUTTING MY FAMILY FOR TRIPS IN THE SUBURBAN WITHOUT REPLACING THE AIR BAGS.

I OWN A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN WITH THE GM RECALL #2049151/NHTSA #16V381. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER BY EMAIL AND PHONE CALLS FOR AN APPOINTMENT FOR REPAIR AND I KEEP GETTING TOLD "THERE ARE NO PARTS FOR THE REPAIR AT THIS TIME, AND YOU WILL BE CONNECTED WHEN THEY ARE." MY WIFE AND FOUR LITTLE CHILDREN RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE DAILY. I HAVE WORKED AT VARIOUS BUICK, CHEVROLET, AND GMC DEALERSHIP OVER 10 YEARS, AND HAVE NEVER SEEN RECALLS TAKE THIS LONG TO RESOLVE.

THE BATTERY CABLES FAILED WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLES MOTOR AND POWER TO SHUTDOWN WHILE DRIVING 70MPH WITH A WIFE AND 4 CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE.

WE WERE ON A CURVE IN THE ROAD, TRAVELING APPROX 40-45MPH WHILE OTHER VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING THE SAME MPH IF NOT MORE. OUR VEHICLE SUSTAINED FRAME DAMAGE TO THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE AS WELL AS ALL AIRBAGS DEPLOYING EXCEPT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG/IN SEAT AIRBAG. AIRBAGS THAT DID DEPLOY INCLUDE: STEERING WHEEL, DRIVERS CURTAIN, DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG/SEAT, PASSENGER DASH BOARD, PASSENGER CURTAIN, MIDDLE ROW CURTAINS (BOTH SIDES), 3RD ROW CURTAINS (BOTH SIDES). PASSENGER SITTING IN FRONT SEAT IS AN ADULT AND LARGE ENOUGH THAT THE AIRBAG SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. ATTACHED ARE PICTURES TO SHOW ALL AIRBAGS IN FRONT ROW, AS WELL AS VEHICLE DAMAGE AND POLICE REPORT. I HAVE ADDITIONAL PHOTOS TO SHOW THE REST OF THE AIRBAGS IF NEEDED.

CRACKED DASHBOARD

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING NEAR INSTRUMENT PANEL AND PASSENGER AIRBAG CAUSING A DEBRIS CONCERN DURING NORMAL VEHICLE OPERATION AND/OR AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH IN THE RAIN, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WAITED UNTIL THE RAIN STOPPED, AND RESUMED DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RANDY WISE BUICK GMC DEALER (2530 OWENS RD, FENTON, MI) AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE WIPERS WERE ONLY GOOD FOR ONE YEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE REPLACED TWO YEAR AGO BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

VEHICLE DEVELOPED CRACK ACROSS DASHBOARD BETWEEN PASSENGER AIRBAG AND WINDSHIELD VENT PANEL. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND PARKED IN SHADE WHEN DAMAGE OCCURRED.

FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS MY 2011 SUBURBAN WILL RANDOMLY NOT WANT TO SHIFT FROM PARK INTO DRIVE. THE GEAR SHIFTER ACTS LIKE IT IS STUCK. I HAVE TO PUMP THE BRAKE SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT WILL ENGAGE. OVER THE WEEKEND MY HUSBAND HAD MY CAR KEYS IN HIS POCKET, OUR 4 YEAR OLD SON CLIMBED INTO THE DRIVERS SEAT AND STARTED TO HOP OVER THE CENTER CONSOLE TO GET TO PASSENGER SIDE. MY HUSBAND WAS GETTING IN IMMEDIATELY AFTER HIM TO SIT IN DRIVERS SEAT. WHEN MY SON HOPPED OVER, HE ACCIDENTLY GRABBED THE GEAR SHIFTER AND MY CAR ROLLED DOWN THE DRIVEWAY INTO OUR CAMPER. SINCE THE CAR WAS NOT ON, NO KEYS IN THE IGNITION, MY HUSBAND'S ATTEMPTS TO STOP IT FAILED. THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH DAMAGE TO TURN INTO OUR INSURANCE COMPANY BUT WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE PROBLEM WITH THE GEAR SHIFTER BEING STUCK AND NOW THIS. I FOUND A RECALL FOR THIS SAME EXACT PROBLEM ON 2013 MODELS AND AM CURIOUS IF IT SHOULD EXTEND TO 2011 AS WELL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. IN ADDITION, THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (MANASSAS CHEVROLET, 8000 SUDLEY RD, MANSSAS, VA) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT AND REAR BRAKE LINES COLLAPSED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CALLED AND A VOICE MESSAGE WAS LEFT, BUT THE CONTACT HAD NOT RECEIVED A CALL BACK. THE FAILURE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 70,000. UPDATED 11/01/17*LJ *TR

CRACKING DASH

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AND ALSO ON THE PASSENGER SIDE NEAR THE AIRBAG.

FRONT DASH BOARD IS STRUCTURALLY CRACKED WITHOUT INCIDENT, CRACKED AROUND FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG , IN THE EVENT OF DEPLOYMENT, DASH MATERIAL MAY IN FACT CREATE SHRAPNEL OR OTHER SHARP OBJECT INFLICTING INJURY OR DEATH TO VEHICLE PASSENGERS. GM HAS FAILED TO FORMALLY RECOGNIZE THIS PROBLEM. ALSO NOTEWORTHY IS GM DEALER ALREADY REPLACED COMPLETE DASHBOARD AT A COST OF ALMOST $2000, AND 14 MONTH LATER CRACKED AGAIN. VEHIICLE LOCATED IN ARIZONA, GARAGED PARKED AND 65,000 MILES ON ODOMETER

THE DASHBOARD CRACKING

SEVERAL CRACKS ON THE DASHBOARD THAT COVERS THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY CONCERNED THAT IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS THAT THE PLASTIC FROM THE DASHBOARD WILL CAUSE BODILY HARM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD CRACKED APART. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED AND MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000.

TAKATA RECALL. DEALER HAS NO REPAIR FOR MY VEHICLE. DASH IS CRACKING

DASH SPONTANEOUSLY CRACKED AT THE AIRBAG PANEL AND OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IN 2011 SUBURBAN WITH 39,000 MILES. GARAGE STORED. I HAVE CONCERN ABOUT THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SAFETY WITH THIS CRACK. A SEARCH ON-LNE REVEALS THIS IS A VERY BIG PROBLEM FOR MANY CHEVY AND GM SUBURBAN/TAHOE OWNERS.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION

CRACKED DASH ON MY 2011 CHEVY SUBURBAN. THE CRACKS EXTENDED THE LENGTH OF THE DASH AND UP AND AROUND THE PASASNGER AIRBAG

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS). THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE.

CRACKED DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN CRACKED IN TWO PLACES ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK ON MAY 8, 2017. THE CRACKS EXTEND FROM THE SEAM NEAR THE WINDSHIELD TO THE FRONT SEAM OF THE DASH BOARD. ONE IS CLOSE TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AN THE OTHER LEADS FROM THE WINDSHIELD TO THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG HOUSING. I WAS DRIVING ON A WELL PAVED, FOUR LANE ROAD WITH A CENTER TURNING LANE. THE ROAD IS WELL TRAVELLED AND WELL MAINTAINED. AS I STOPPED AT THE FIRST LIGHT, I HEARD A CRACKING AND THEN A CLICKING SOUND. THE DASHBOARD NOW VIBRATES WHILE DRIVING AND IS VISIBLY LOOSE.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 70,000.

THERE IS A RECALL WITH TAKATA AIRBAG AND CHEVROLET HAS NOT FURNISHED A REPLACE THE PART OR FIX IN A TIMELY MANNER. SECOND ISSUE IS WITH DASHBOARD CRACKING. MY SUBURBAN SITS UNDER OUR CARPORT 99% OF THE TIME, BUT YET HAS A FEW CRACKS ON THE DASH. THIRD ISSUE IS CORROSION IN THE UNDERCARRIAGE, AND I LIVE IN DEEP SOUTH TEXAS WHERE IT DOES NOT SNOW, AND THE BEACH IS 1.5 HOURS AWAY FROM WHERE I LIVE. THIS VEHICLE SITS ON JUST OVER 40K MILES.

VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

DASH BOARD CRACKING IN MULTIPLE PLACES. ACCORDING TO DEALER PROBLEM NOTED MANY OF THE VEHICLES FROM 2008 TO 2014 SUV'S. GM. REPAIRED FEW VEHICLES WITH 200 DOLLAR DEDUCTIBLE.

WHILE COMMUTING TO WORK ON INTERSTATE 15, NORTHBOUND ON FEBRUARY 1, 2017, WITH MY TWO SONS IN THE VEHICLE, I SMELLED SMOKE. I PULLED OVER TO INVESTIGATE AND REALIZED THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WAS ON FIRE (PICTURES ATTACHED). I NOTICED THE SWITCH FOR THE HEATED SEAT WAS ON, SO I TURNED IT OFF. I THEN PROCEEDED TO THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP IN BUTTE, MT (APPROX. 15 MILES) AND HAD THEM DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICAL TO THE SEAT AND ENSURE IT WAS NOT STILL BURNING. THIS DISABLED THE POWER SEAT, SEAT HEATER AND PASSENGER FRONT AIRBAGS. I CONTACTED GM PRODUCT SERVICES TO INFORM THEM AND THEY STARTED A SERVICE REQUEST, NUMBER 8-2712194856. THEY INSTRUCTED ME TO TAKE IT TO THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP IN DILLON, MT WHERE I LIVE FOR INSPECTION. AFTER THE DEALERSHIP FINISHED THE INSPECTION AND SENT THEIR FINDINGS TO GM PRODUCT SERVICES I WAS INFORMED BY THE CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP SPECIALIST AT GM THAT THEY HAD COMPLETED THEIR INVESTIGATION AND CLOSED THE CASE ON MY "PRODUCT ALLEGATION", CONCLUDING IT WAS "NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR" THAT CAUSED THE SEAT TO CATCH FIRE AND THAT GM WOULD NOT PAY FOR ANY REPAIR OR DAMAGES. WHEN I ASKED HOW TO PROCEED WITH APPEAL OF THEIR DECISION, I WAS INFORMED THEIR DECISION WAS FINAL AND NON-APPEALABLE. I REQUESTED WRITTEN RECORD OF THEIR FINDINGS TO WHICH THEY SENT THE ATTACHED LETTER STATING THEY WOULD NOT ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY AND SUGGESTED I RESOLVE THE MATTER WITH MY INSURANCE CARRIER. THEIR LETTER STATED NOTHING SPECIFIC OF THEIR FINDINGS DURING THE INSPECTION. I REQUESTED INFO FROM THE DEALERSHIP THAT DID THE INSPECTION AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT RELEASE THAT INFORMATION WITHOUT CONSENT FROM GM. MY INSURANCE CARRIER INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND DOCUMENTED THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE AS AN ELECTRICAL SHORT.

THE DASH PANEL OF MY 2011 SUBURBAN LTZ HAS MULTIPLE CRACKS. THE CRACKS ARE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FROM ONE END TO THE OTHER, AND AT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG, FROM ONE END TO THE AIR BAG. I HAVE PAID TO HAVE THE CRACKS REPAIRED MULTIPLE TIMES, BUT THEY CONTINUE TO CRACK, AS EVIDENCED BY THE ATTACHED PICTURES. THESE CRACKS HAVE APPEARED COMPLETELY ON THEIR OWN WITHOUT ANYTHING BEING PLACED ONTO OR HITTING THE DASH PANEL. SHOULD I BE INVOLVED AN ACCIDENT CAUSING THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY, THESE CRACKS WOULD CREATE A "SHRAPNEL EFFECT" OF THE PLASTIC PIECES BEING FORCED INTO THE PASSENGER CABIN AND POSSIBLY INTO THE FACES OF PASSENGERS.

I HAVE ONE LARGE SPIDER CRACK ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND ANOTHER CRACK NEXT TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG IN THE DASHBOARD. THIS POSES A VERY LIKE IMPEDIMENT TO THE SAFETY AND FUNCTION OF THE AIRBAGS IN A WRECK.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKING IN DIFFERENT SPOTS, 2 PLACES IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS. I'M CONCERNED THAT IT CAN POSSIBLY COME APART WHILE I'M DRIVING. THE CRACKS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING. I KNOW THE CRACK NEXT TO THE AIRBAG CRACKED BECAUSE THE MATERIAL IS TO THIN TO SUPPORT THE WEIGHT OF THE SPEAKER IN THE DASH, I'M GUESSING THE REST OF THE DASH IS ALSO MADE THE SAME WAY, SO ANY VIBRATION OR HITTING ANY POTHOLES IS CAUSING IT TO BREAK. I HAVE HEARD THAT THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM WITH ALL OF THESE GMS AND GMCS IN THE MID TO LATE 2000S. SOMETHING NEED TO BE DONE ABOUT IT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT WHILE DRIVING THESE VEHICLES. GM KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. SO MUCH FOR THE GOVERNMENT BAILOUT! *TR

MAJOR CRACK HAS OCCURRED IN THE TOP OF THE DASH BOARD FROM NEAR THE WINDSHIELD TO THE TOP OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. DASH HAS CRACKED COMPLETELY THROUGH MAKING THE PLASTIC LOOSE. CONCERN WITH THE DASHBOARD IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS) WAS RECEIVED IN MAY. AFTER CONTACTING THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED FOR THE RECALL REMEDY WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND NO ESTIMATED TIME FOR RECEIVING THE PARTS COULD BE PROVIDED THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE. UPDATED 03/03/17*LJ *CN

ABOUT 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, THE DASH CRACKED IN TWO PLACES NEAR THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. THIS AFTERNOON, I NOTICED THE DASH DEVELOPED CRACKS IN THE SAME PLACES. I AM WORRIED IF THE TAKATA AIR BAG DEPLOYS, WE HAVE AN ADDITIONAL ISSUE OF DASH PIECES BEING THROWN ACROSS THE CABIN.

DASHBOARD HAS CRACKED WITHOUT ANY INTERVENING EVENT. ONE CRACK ON THE RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE DASHBOARD IS DIRECTLY ON THE TOP LEFT SIDE OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I'M AFRAID IF AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED SHARDS OF PLASTIC WOULD BECOME PROJECTILES OR POSSIBLY INTERFERE WITH THE AIRBAG OPERATION. ANOTHER CRACK ON TOP OF DASHBOARD IS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE ON THE TOP LEFT SIDE OF THE INSTRUMENTATION CLUSTER IS MORE THAN 5.5 TO 6 INCHES LONG.

CRACKED DASHBOARD WHERE AIRBAG IS LOCATED

DASH COVER CRACKS PRESENT A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD IN THE EVENT OF CRASH/COLLISION WITH OR WITHOUT AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT DUE TO SHARP FLYING DEBRIS. DASH IS CONSTRUCTED OF HARD PLASTIC THAT FRACTURES IN NORMAL USE/WEAR WHICH RESULTS SHARP AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS PROJECTILES.

I HAVE 3 CRACKS IN THE DASH OF MY SUBURBAN. 1 IS IN THE FAR LEFT, FRONT CORNER OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG, AND THE OTHER 2 ARE IN FRONT OF THE STEERING WHEEL, ABOUT 8 INCHES APART. MY CONCERN, ASIDE FROM PAYING SO MUCH MONEY FOR A VEHICLE AND HAVING THE DASH CRACK FOR NO REASON, IS THAT THE AIRBAG BEING DEPLOYED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE MAY SEND PLASTIC PIECES FLYING AT THE PASSENGERS FACE. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN THE PRODUCTION OF THESE DASHES, AS I HAVE READ OTHER PEOPLE STATE THE SAME ISSUE, IN THE SAME SPOTS. I ENCOURAGE GENERAL MOTORS TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS PART, AS IT COULD POSE A DANGEROUS SITUATION IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED DURING THE PERIOD THE DASH CRACKED. *TR

CRACKED DASHBOARD ADJACENT TO AIRBAG. THIS COULD CAUSE A HAZARD WHEN/IF AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V381000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE.

VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

I HAD A CRACK IN MY DASHBOARD AT THE CORNER OF WHERE MY AIRBAG IS STORED. THIS CRACK COULD IMPACT THE PROPER EXECUTION OF THE THE AIRBAG BEING DEPLOYED. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED AN AT THE TIME IT WAS A HAIRLINE CRACK WHICH LED TO A LARGE CRACK AND A BREAK IN THE DASHBOARD.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V3810000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE GM REPRESENTATIVE REFUSED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE.

THE DASH ON THE SUBURBAN HAS CRACKED IN 2 PLACES. 1 BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE OTHER BEHIND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AREA. THIS IS VERY ANNOYING AND NOISY, NOT TO MENTION THE DANGER WITH THE AIRBAG RIGHT THERE.

DASHBOARDS HAVE CRACKED AND FAILED TWICE. SHARP EDGES RESULT FROM CRACKING. UNSAFE EXPOSURE TO DASHBOARD WIRING--SUSCEPTIBLE TO MOISTURE, FOREIGN OBJECT DAMAGE.

DASH BOARD CRACKED IN 2 PLACES-THIS CAR HAS BEEN GARAGED SINCE DAY ONE

THE DASH BOARD ON OUR TRUCK HAS HAD A CRACK IN IT STARTING NEAR THE WINDSHIELD AND STRETCHING TOWARDS THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. NO KNOW REASON. THE CRACK CONTINUES TO GROW AND IS ALREADY HALF WAY UP THE DASH.

TOP OF DASH BOARD CRACKED AND BROKE, I AM AFRAID THAT THIS MY EFFECT THE PROPER OPERATION OF THE AIR BAGS.

CRACKED DASH AT AIRBAG AND ABOVE STEERING. DEALER WILL REPAIR VIA AN EXTENDED WARRANTY I PURCHASED WHEN THE AUTO WAS NEW.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKED. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A LAWSUIT ABOUT IT. OUR VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT HAS SPENT PLENTY OF TIME IN THE SOUTHERN STATES THAT ARE PART OF THE RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL. WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED INFORMATION FROM CHEVROLET ABOUT WHEN/HOW THEY WILL FIX THIS DEFECT. NEED HELP PLEASE. THANK YOU. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A NICELY PAVED ROAD (NO BOMBS, POTHOLES, ETC...) WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY DASHBOARD CRACKED! IT IS NOW RATTLING AND JIGGLING AND CAUSES A DISTRACTION TO MY LINE OF SIGHT AS I'M DRIVING. I WENT TO MY DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY THE WHOLE AMOUNT OUT OF POCKET TO HAVE IT REPAIRED.

CRACKED DASHBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE CLOSE TO THE AIRBAG

DASHBOARD IS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES NOW - 1ST CRACK WAS TOP OF DASH BEHIND INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. 2ND CRACK NOW AT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AREA AT THE TOP OF THE DASH. IN 2015, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT ADDRESSED. SERVICE MANAGER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO BUT ANOTHER MANAGER STATED IT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE SUBURBANS. CHEVY REP WAS SUPPOSE TO INSPECT BUT NOTHING WAS CONVEYED BACK TO ME. I DID NOT ACTUALLY SEE THE DASH CRACK AT THE TIME IT HAPPENED, SO IT MUST HAVE BEEN WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. THE VEHICLE IS ALWAYS PARKED IN A GARAGE AND NOW ONLY HAS 58,000 MILES ON IT (ALMOST 5 YEARS OLD). THIS CAN BE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE IN THE EVENT OF AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. PIECES OF THE DASH COULD BECOME DEADLY WEAPONS IN THE EVENT THE AIRBAGS DEPLOY. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURER SINCE IT CAN BE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE WHEN BROKEN PIECES OF DASH GO FLYING AROUND THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE AND INJURE OR POSSIBLE KILL A PASSENGER.

THE DASH BOARD CONTINUES TO CRACK TO THE POINT WHERE IT WILL BE CRACKED CLEAR THROUGH. ANY KIND OF IMPACT COULD CAUSE THE DASHBOARD TO FRAGMENT AND FLY INTO THE CABIN CAUSING HARM TO THE OCCUPANTS. ADDITIONALLY THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED WHERE THE DASHBOARD AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED, SO IN THE EVENT OF AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT DASHBOARD PIECES WILL ALSO FLY INTO THE CABIN HARMING OCCUPANTS. THIS DASHBOARD IS A CLEAR SAFETY HAZARD AND GM SHOULD BE FORCED TO REPLACE ALL DASHBOARDS FOR THE AFFECTED MODELS.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKING SINCE 8/19/2016. NO ACCIDENT OR ROUGH DRIVING. ASHPALT AND CONCRETE DRIVING ONLY

MY DASH BOARD HAS CRACKS.

DASH HAS CRACK ALL ACROSS TO PASSENGER AIR BAG.

ALTHOUGH GM SAYS THAT THE TRUCK IS SAFE, I FEEL THAT DRIVING A POTENTIALLY LETHAL TRUCK WITH DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS, WHOSE CONDITION IS MADE MUCH WORSE BECAUSE OF THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY OF SW FLORIDA, I DO NOT FEEL IT IS SAFE AT ALL.

DASHBOARD HAS A CRACK BY AIRBAG AND ANOTHER IS STARTING ON TOP OF STEERING WHEEL AND IS SPREADING. NEVER USED ANY PRODUCTS ON DASH JUST DAMP CLOTH TO DUST. WORRIED IF AIRBAG DEPLOYS SHARP OBJECTS FROM DASH WILL CAUSE INJURY.

DRIVING WITH A TRAVEL TRAILER IN TOW IN I-81 IN NY ON 6/15/16 WE SUDDENLY HAD EXTREME SWAY. MY CAR/TRAILER HAD VERY GOOD HITCH/ANTI-SWAY DEVICES. WITHOUT MUCH NOTICE, I LOST CONTROL. I BELIEVE THE FRAME SUPPORTING THE HITCH RECEIVER FAILED CAUSING A BAD ACCIDENT RESULTING IN TOTAL LOSS OF OUR TOW VEHICLE AND OUR AIRSTREAM 25 FOOT TRAVEL TRAILER. I AM A VERY EXPERIENCED DRIVER WITH THIS COMBINATION OF TOW VEHICLE, TRAVEL TRAILER, AND HITCH CONFIGURATION. THE ONSET AND MAGNITUDE OF THE SWAY (VIOLENT) CAUSED ME TO LOSE CONTROL AS WE WERE GOING 65 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. I HAVE TOWED THIS SAME CONFIGURATION FOR TENS OF THOUSANDS OF MILES WITH NO INSTANCES OF PROBLEMS. SOMETHING DRASTIC HAPPENED! I WAS PASSING A SLOW MOVING CAR , SO WAS IN THE RIGHT LANE HEADING SOUTH WHEN I STARTED TO SWAY. I REACHED FOR THE BRAKE CONTROLLER IN AN ATTEMPT TO APPLY THE TRAILER BRAKES. THE SWAY DRASTICALLY ACCELERATED TO THE EXTENT I WAS UNABLE TO REACH THE BRAKE CONTROLLER DUE TO THE VIOLENT MOTION. WITHIN A FEW SECONDS, MY VEHICLE CAME TO REST AGAINST THE GUARDRAIL ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY (HEADING NORTH) WITH THE TRAILER JACKNIFED/PERPENDICULAR TO THE GUARDRAIL SUCH THAT I WAS BLOCKING BOTH LANES OF THE HIGHWAY. I EXAMINED THE HITCH AND TRAILER COUPLING AND ALL SEEMED NORMAL EXCEPT FOR DAMAGE FROM THE CRASH. THE HITCH FRAME OF THE SUBURBAN WAS TORN AND TOTALLY RIPPED FROM THE VEHICLE ON ONE SIDE.

CRACKED DASHBOARD. LOCATED ABOVE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AREA. FRAGMENTATION HAZARD.

DASH IS CRACKED AND REPORTS SHOW NOT A RECALL AND IF REPLACE WILL CONTINUE TO CRACK.

THE DASH IS CRACKED AROUND THE CORNER OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. IN THE EVENT OF AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, THE CRACKED DASH COULD BECOME A PROJECTILE AND CAUSE HARM TO OCCUPANTS.

CRACK THAT HAS GROWN ON THE DASHBOARD ABOVE THE STEERING COLUMN

DASHBOARD ON MY SUBURBAN BEGAN CRACKING AT 40K MILES. NOW HAS 3 CRACKS, ONE AT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG, ONE IN THE MIDDLE, AND ONE NEAR THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER RISE. I'M AFRAID THAT IF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED DURING AN ACCIDENT, IT WILL SEND BROKEN PIECES OF SHARP PLASTIC AS A PROJECTILE THROUGHOUT THE CAR. I HAVE 5 KIDS RANGING FROM TWIN 1 YEAR OLD BABIES TO A 21 YEAR OLD. AS A PARAMEDIC FIREFIGHTER, I COMMONLY SEE HOW PROJECTILES IN THE CAR CAN BECOME DEADLY. THIS IS A BIG ISSUE.

65,000 MILES ON 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN AND THE DASH HAS MULTIPLE CRACKS. CONCERNED THAT ONE OF THE CRACKS IS NEXT TO PASSENGER AIRBAG. WORRIED ABOUT SHRAPNEL IN A COLLISION.

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING, CAUSE IS UNKNOWN, THE VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS

MY 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN WITH ABOUT 85,000 MILES ON IT HAS RECENTLY DEVELOPED CRACKS IN THE DASH. ONE AT THE REAR LEFT CORNER OF THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG SECTION, AND ANOTHER BEHIND THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THE CAR IS IN IMMACULATE CONDITION OTHER THAN THE DASH. ITS AN EYE-SORE TO SEE THESE CRACKS EVERY DAY. HAD THESE CRACKS BEEN THERE A YEAR AGO WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR, WE PROBABLY WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT IT. ITS SAD TO SEE THAT THIS IS A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM ON ALL VEHICLES OF THIS MAKE/MODEL/YEAR RANGE.

SIGNIFICANT STRESS FRACTURES ON THE DASH AGAINST THE AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT DASH FRAGMENTS COULD INJURE THE PASSENGER OR PUNCTURE THE AIRBAG IN A CRASH RENDERING IT INEFFECTIVE.

THE DASH IN OUR 2011 CHEVY SUBUBAN LTZ IS CRACKED AT THE AIRBAG. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THIS IS A GM DEFECT THAT IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED IT COULD BE DANGEROUS AND PROJECT PIECES OF THE DASH. THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO FURTHER.

WITHIN LESS THAT TWO YEARS THE DASH STARTED CRACKING IN MULTIPLE PLACES. IT HAS CONTINUED UNTIL THE CRACKS HAVE SPANNED THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE DASH IN IN MULTIPLE PLACES RUNNING FROM FRONT TO REAR. WHILE DRIVING THE PIECES OF THE DASH CONTINUALLY VIBRATE AND FLEX. THE DEALER WILL NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY OR PROVIDE WARRANTY COVERAGE.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2011 SUBURBAN CRACKED ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WHILE MY WIFE WAS STANDING AT A RED LIGHT. THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ON A SPECIFIC FACEBOOK PAGE( 07-13 CRACKED DASH SAFETY HAZARD FOR ALL TRUCKS) FROM ACROSS AMERICA ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM ON THERE GM SUV FROM 2007-2013 AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN PUT OUT BY GM. THE DEALERS WANT BETWEEN 1100 TO 1600 DOLLARS FOR THE REPAIR. GM HAS STATED IT IS HEAT RELATED BUT IT IS FROM INFERIOR MATERIAL THEY USED TO MAKE THESE DASH BOARDS. IF IT WAS HEAT RELATED EVERY CAR IN THE WORLD WOULD HAVE CRACKED DASHBOARDS.

DASHBOARD SHOWS CRACKING AROUND PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SECTION, AS WELL AS FORWARD OF THE DRIVER'S INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THESE CRACKS DEVELOPED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD EXHIBITED CRACKS THAT ORIGINATED ON THE DRIVER SIDE AND BECAME PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. IN ADDITION, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SEAM WAS CRACKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS WHO STATED THAT THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000.

THE REAR LIFT GATE ON MY 2011 SUBURBAN HAS BEGUN TO SPONTANEOUSLY CLOSE ON ITS OWN. IT KNOCKED MY HUSBAND DOWN OVER THE WEEKEND AND CONKED ME ON THE HEAD YESTERDAY WHILE I WAS PARKED AND LOADING GROCERIES- GLAD I DIDN'T NEED STITCHES! THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND I HOPE CHEVROLET WILL WORK TO RECTIFY IT. A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH WILL TELL YOU THAT MANY, MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH SUBURBANS AND OTHER CHEVY MODELS.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION WHICH GM REFUSES TO FIX UNDER WARRANTY.

MY DASHBOARD IS CRACKED OVER THE STEERING WHEEL BUT MOST PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING OF THE DASH BEING CRACKED AROUND THE AIRBAG. GM REFUSES TO REPAIR.

VEHICLE DASH IS CRACKING WHICH PRESENTS A SAFETY RISK. PLASTIC COULD BE PROPELLED AT PASSENGERS IN THE CASE OF AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT.

THE DASHBOARD ABOVE STEERING COLUMN HAS A CRACK ALMOST TO THE WINDSHIELD. GM HAS BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS ISSUE AND WANTS HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO REPAIR. IT IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURER FAULTY PART THAT THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO RECALL. MOST OF WHICH ARE CRACKED BY THE AIRBAGS. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A HAZARD.

DASHBOARD IS CRACKED IN THREE PLACES, INCLUDING TWO CRACKS AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE IN GM TRUCKS/SUVS AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SURBUBAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT SECTION OF THE DASHBOARD CRACKED IN SIX PLACES. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE STEERING WHEEL SHOOK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000.

DASHBOARD CRACKING AT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND DRIVER SIDE ABOVE SPEEDOMETER

MY BREAK LIGHTS WONT WORK , DEALER STATES ITS COMPUTER . I HAD THE TRUCK 3 YEARS. I HAD NO IDEA I HAD NO BREAK LIGHTS TILL I TOOK THE TRUCK FOR INSPECTION

DASHBOARD IS CRACKED AND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND IS LOOSE AND SHAKES THE ENTIRE WIDTH OF THE DASHBOARD.

DASHBOARD CRACKED WHILE PARKED AND THESE CRACKS HAVE SPREAD TO BECOME VERY LARGE OVER SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. LARGE CRACK IS ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND ANOTHER IS NEAR PASSENGER AIRBAG. THE DASHBOARD IS UNSTABLE BETWEEN THESE TWO POINTS AND THIS COULD BE POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD AS DASH COULD CRACK OR SPLINTER IF AIRBAG DEPLOYED CAUSING INJURY TO THE PASSENGERS. DASHBOARD HAS BEEN PROTECTED IN GARAGE OR WITH SUN DEFLECTOR DURING OWNERSHIP SO DASHBOARD CRACKS WOULD BE DEFECT VS. ELEMENT RELATED.

THE DASH IS CRACKING BY THE AIRBAG. THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED WITH MY 2006 TAHOE. THERE IS A FACEBOOK PAGE WITH OVER 3000 PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE - IN ADDITION TO A NEWS SEGMENT THAT WAS RECENTLY COVERED. IT IS A MAJOR ISSUE THAT GM IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY. THE FACEBOOK PAGE IS "07-13 GM CRACKED DASH SAFETY HAZARD FOR ALL TRUCKS"

CRACKED DASHBOARD OVER PASSENGER-SIDE FRONT AIRBAG. CRACKED DASHBOARD OVER INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.

VEHICLE DEVELOPED TWO CRACKS ON THE TOP OF THE DASHBOARD ASSEMBLY. ONE CRACK IS LOCATED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, RUNNING FROM THE FORWARD-LEFT CORNER OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG TO THE DEFROSTER VENT. THE OTHER CRACK IS ON THE DRIVER SIDE, INBOARD AND SLIGHTLY FORWARD OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL "HUMP." CRACKS DISCOVERED WHILE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. I UNDERSTAND THIS TO BE COMMON, KNOWN MANUFACTURER DEFECT FOR THIS VEHICLE AND RELATED GENERAL MOTORS VEHICLES (E.G., GMC YUKON, YUKON XL, AVALANCHE, TAHOE, ETC.). THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE LOCATION OF THE CRACKS POTENTIALLY AFFECTING PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, CREATING A DANGEROUS SHARDS OF FLYING PLASTIC IN THE EVENT OF A PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, THE POTENTIAL NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE DASHBOARD AND SUBSEQUENT NON-COMPLIANT PERFORMANCE DURING A COLLISION, AND POTENTIAL DUST AND WATER INTRUSION INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE DASHBOARD THROUGH THE CRACKS WHICH WOULD AFFECT THE VARIOUS ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS LOCATED IN THE DASHBOARD INTERIOR. *JS

DASHBOARD CRACKING POTENTIALLY AFFECTING THE USE OF THE AIRBAG AND THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS UNDER THE DASHBOARD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 156,304. UPDATED 02/05/16*LJ; UPDATED 04/30/18*JB

THE DASH ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IS CRACKED.

WINDSHIELD WIPER HOSES (FRONT & REAR) SELF DISCONNECTED AND I PLACED THEM BACK ON SEVERAL TIMES. THE LAST TIME I PUT THEM BACK IN PLACE, THE HOSE BROKE OFF WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO PLACE BACK ON THE LAST TIME AS THE PLASTIC CONNECTOR HAD BECOME BRITTLE. NO I CANNOT CLEAN MY BACK WINDOW AND SOMETIMES UNABLE TO CLEAN THE FRONT WINDSHIELD MAKING IT HARD TO SEE WHILE DRIVING.

VERY CONCERNED THAT THE CRACKS ON THE DASHBOARD STARTED AROUND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND NOW HAVE SPREAD ALL THE WAY ACROSS TO THE DIAL AREA. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ IT SEEMS THIS IS A HAPPENING TO A LOT OF THE GM/CHEVY VEHICLES AND IS A PROBLEM GM SHOULD REALLY ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX. ARE THEY WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE WHEN A AIRBAG DEPLOYS AND THE SHARP PLASTIC THE CRACKS ARE MAKING IMMEDIATELY DEFLATES THE AIRBAG AND IT IS USELESS? STEP-UP GM AND ISSUE THE RECALL AND FIX THE PROBLEM BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE AND SOMEONE DIES.

GOT IN MY SUV THIS MORNING TO LEAVE FOR WORK AND NOTICED A HUGE CRACK MIDDLE WAY OF THE DASH COMING UP TO THE TOP HUMP WHERE CONTROLS ARE LOCATED. AS I HAVE RESEARCHED I SEE THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. WHEN PAYING OVER $30,000.00 FOR A VEHICLE, YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE REPORTING CRACKS ON YOUR DASH. I FEEL THIS MAY CAUSE AN ISSUE WITH AIRBAGS GOING OFF AS THEY SHOULD IF EVER IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS SHOULD MOST DEFINITELY BE REPAIRED BY GM ASAP. IF THERE ARE THIS MANY ISSUES WITH ALL GM MAKES THEN THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

IN SEPTEMBER 2014, I NOTICED MY DASH ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER CRACKING. I PURCHASED THIS CAR AS A GM CERTIFIED USED CAR WITH ORIGINAL FACTORY WARRANTEE IN APRIL 2013 WITH 60081 MILES ON IT. IN LESS THAN 5 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP IT DEVELOPED THIS CRACK WHILE STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTEE. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER WITH ALL MY PAPERWORK AND THEY SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED, NOR WOULD THEY REPLACE IT. THIS CRACK HAS DEVELOPED DUE TO NO FAULT OF MY OWN FROM NEGLECT, EXCESS WEAR AND TEAR, EXCESS SUNLIGHT OR ANYTHING OTHER THAN MANUFACTURE FLAW. THIS CRACK HAS CONTINUED TO SPREAD AND DUE TO THE THIN AND SHARP NATURE OF THE PLASTIC, IF I WERE TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT, THIS WOULD SPLINTER AND ACT LIKE SHRAPNEL WITHIN THE CABIN. MY FAMILY'S LIFE IS DANGER DUE TO THIS FACT AND GM REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS IS AN ISSUE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AS I KNOW MANY OTHERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITH EVEN 2015 MODELS. I AM ASKING FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND YOURS.

THE DASH ON MY SUBURBAN HAS CRACKED AT THE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT

I BOUGHT A GM CERTIFIED SUBURBAN AND LESS THAN TWO WEEKS LATER THE DASHBOARD CRACKED BEHIND THE AIRBAG. I CALLED THE DEALER AND GM AND ALERTED THEM TO THE PROBLEM AND TOLD THEM I FELT UNSAFE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE. I FEEL THAT IF THAT AIRBAG DEPLOYS IT COULD SEND THAT SHARP PIECE OF BROKEN PLASTIC FLYING THROUGH MY CAR. THEY WILL NOT FIX THE DASHBOARD WITHOUT ME PAYING FOR IT AND SAID IT IS NOT A COMMON COMPLAINT PEOPLE ARE HAVING. HOWEVER, EVERYONE I HAVE TALKED TO WITH A SUBURBAN, TAHOE, OR PICK UP TRUCK BETWEEN THE YEARS OF 2007-2013 IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME CRACK IN THE SAME PLACE NEAR THAT AIRBAG. GM NEEDS TO FIX THESE BEFORE INNOCENT PEOPLE GET HURT.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 HAS CRACKED IN TWO LOCATIONS. BOTH OF THESE LOCATIONS WOULD BE EFFECTED BY AN AIRBAG ACTIVATION WITH HIGH POTENTIAL FOR FLYING SHARP PLASTIC FRAGMENTS THAT A) PIERCE THE AIRBAG OR PREVENT ITS PROPER INFLATION OR, B) INJURE OR KILL FRONT SEAT PASSENGERS. OPEN-SOURCE RESEARCH INDICATES THIS IS A WIDESPREAD AND PERVASIVE ISSUE WITH GENERAL MOTORS VEHICLES OF SIMILAR DESIGN (SUBURBAN, TAHOE, SILVERADO, AVALANCHE, ETC...) STRETCHING OVER A PERIOD OF SEVERAL YEARS-- AT LEAST EFFECTING MODEL YEARS 2007 THRU 2013 OR MORE. FURTHERMORE, EVERY GM SERVICE CENTER HAS EXPERIENCED SO MANY OF THESE DASHBOARD CRACKS THAT REPLACEMENT OF THESE PARTS HAS BECOME ROUTINE. GM VIEWS THIS INHERENT DESIGN FLAW AS A WARRANTY ISSUE, NOT THE ENDEMIC PROBLEM IT ACTUALLY IS WITH POTENTIAL FOR INJURY.

MY 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 LT (IN EXCELLENT SHAPE) HAS MULTIPLE DRIVERS SIDE DASHBOARD CRACKS AND THESE CRACKS MAY AFFECT AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT BY CUTTING THE AIRBAG IF DEPLOYED POSSIBLY CAUSING AIRBAG FAILURE WHEN NEEDED. ON 6/23/15, ATTEMPTED TO HAVE MANUFACTURER (GM) REPLACE THE DASHBOARD (THRU LOCAL DEALER - BANNER CHEVROLET, NEW ORLEANS). DEALER TOLD ME THAT GM WOULD SHARE THE COST OF REPLACEMENT? MY SHARE WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY $500? WHY WOULD GM SHARE THE COST OF REPLACEMENT, UNLESS THEY ARE AWARE OF A HEREDITARY ENGINEERING DESIGN FLAW CAUSING THE DASHBOARDS TO CRACK ULTIMATELY INTERFERRING WITH THE PROPER DEPLOYMENT AND USE OF THE AIRBAG?

NOTICED THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. HAVE CONCERNS THAT MAY CAUSE A SAFETY RISK IF IMPROPERLY DEPLOYED.

ENGINE WAS IDLING LOW AND HESITATING AT LOW SPEEDS, THEN ENGINE STARTED RUNNING RALLY ROUGH. SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, CHANGED GAS IN VEHICLE, PROBLEM CONTINUED. ENGINE RUNNING REALLY ROUGH AND SERVICE STABILITRACK LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK TRUCK TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE FIRST SPARK PLUG WAS FOULED DUE TO OIL CONTAMINATION AND THAT ENGINE AND FUEL INJECTORS AND THROTTLE BODY NEEDED CLEANING. THIS COST $475 AND WAS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.

ENGINE IDLING LOW, HESITANT AT LOW SPEEDS. CHANGED GAS, NO CHANGE IN HOW THE TRUCK WAS RUNNING. ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK TO DEALERSHIP. REPLACED SPARK PLUG THAT WAS MISFIRING DUE TO OIL CONTAMINATION. CLEANED FUEL INJECTORS AND THROTTLE BODY, REPLACED VALVE COVER TO PREVENT THIS FROM OCCURRING A THIRD TIME (HAS HAPPENED TWICE ALREADY AND IN THE LAST NINE MONTHS). TOTAL REPAIR $1173. NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.

MY 2011 CHEVY SUBURBAN HAS TWO CRACKS ON THE DASH, BOTH CONNECTING TO THE AIRBAG. I HAVE CONCERNS OF THIS WEAKENING THE DASH WHICH COULD CAUSE SUDDEN DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG. I ALSO HAVE CONCERNS THAT IN THE EVENT OF DEPLOYMENT,, PIECES OF BROKEN PLASTIC COULD CAUSE INJURY, AS DID IN AN ACCIDENT OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN GARAGED FOR A YEAR WHEN NOT USED. IT WAS PREVIOUSLY OWNED BEFORE THAT. THIS IS MY SIXTH SUBURBAN. THE KIND OF MONEY WE PAY FOR THESE, EVEN PREOWNED, SHOULD COVER BETTER THAN THE PLASTIC DASH THAT'S FALLING APART

THE SEATBELT FELLED TO UNLEASH. I HAD TO PUSH THE SEATBELT IN AND PUSH THE SEATBELT RELEASE TO GET THE BELT TO RELEASE. WHEN IT WAS TIME TO BUCKLE UP AGAIN, THE BELT WOUND NOT LATCH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NONE OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATORS WERE WORKING AND THE ABS WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 86,289.

I HAVE A LARGE CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD OVER TOP OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. I DON'T KNOW HOW OR WHEN IT OCCURRED. I FIRST NOTICED IT IN THE BEGINNING OF OCTOBER, 2014. BECAUSE OF ITS LOCATION IT IS NOT EASILY VISIBLE AND IT'S POSSIBLE IT MAY HAVE BEEN THERE FOR SOME TIME. I FOUND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH GM PRODUCTS AND GM REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. I WENT TO MY LOCAL DEALER ABOUT IT AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY I PURCHASED. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE POTENTIAL FURTHER DETERIORATION WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE DASHBOARD STARTED TO SHAKE INDEPENDENTLY. AFTER INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THERE WERE TWO CRACKS OF SIGNIFICANT SIZE ON THE BOTTOM PART OF THE DASHBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,300.

THERE ARE TWO CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD, ONE OVER THE DRIVER CONSOLE AND ONE ON THE TOP LEFT OF PASSENGER AIRBAG....NOTHING HAS OCCURRED TO CAUSE THESE CRACKS, BUT I AM AFRAID IF AIRBAG IS DEPLOYED, THE DASH WILL BREAK UP AND HURT US. *TR

THE SECOND ROAD BENCH, I WAS PUT IT DOWN TO LOCK THE SEAT AND I HEAR A BIG CRACK AND THE ALL SIDE OF VINYL BROKE IN HALF. THE PASSENGER SEAT THE BACK PART FALL. ATT. GM RETIRED EMPLOYER. *TR

THE VEHICLE DASHBOARD HAS DEVELOPED MAJOR CRACKS IN TWO PLACES. ONE CRACK IS ADJACENT TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. THE OTHER CRACK IS ABOVE THE STEERING COLUMN. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD WILL BECOME SHRAPNEL IF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM WAS TO DEPLOY. ADDITIONALLY, THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD "FLAPS" WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING. *TR

DASHBOARD CRACKED ABOVE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND AIRBAG. *TR

NOTICED DASHBOARD CRACK AT LEFT HAND SIDE OF PASSENGER AIR BAG COMPARTMENT AND ABOVE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ON DRIVER'S SIDE. *TR

MY 2011 CHEVY SUBURBAN HAS TWO CRACKS ON THE DASH, BOTH CONNECTING TO THE AIRBAG. I HAVE CONCERNS OF THIS WEAKENING THE DASH WHICH COULD CAUSE SUDDEN DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG. I ALSO HAVE CONCERNS THAT IN THE EVENT OF DEPLOYMENT,, PIECES OF BROKEN PLASTIC COULD CAUSE INJURY, AS DID IN AN ACCIDENT OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN GARAGED FOR A YEAR WHEN NOT USED. IT WAS PREVIOUSLY OWNED BEFORE THAT. THIS IS MY SIXTH SUBURBAN. THE KIND OF MONEY WE PAY FOR THESE, EVEN PREOWNED, SHOULD COVER BETTER THAN THE PLASTIC DASH THAT'S FALLING APART. THE WARRANTY HAD JUST EXPIRED ABOUT 4 MONTHS BEFORE I BOUGHT IT. IT WAS STILL UNDER THE 36000 MILES WHEN THE FIRST CRACK WAS NOTICED BUT TIME HAD EXPIRED. *TR

WE OWN A 2011 CHEVY SUBURBAN AND ONE DAY NOTICED TWO CRACKS ON OUR DASHBOARD. ONE CRACK LEADS STRAIGHT INTO THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AND THE OTHER CRACK IS OVER THE DASH CONSOLE ON THE DRIVER SIDE. BECAUSE OUR SUBURBAN IS OUT OF THE 36K MILE WARRANTY WE WERE REFERRED TO GM. WE CALLED GM AND WERE TOLD THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY $450.00 OUT OF OUR POCKET TO GET IT FIXED. WE ARE VERY CONCERNED THAT EITHER 1) THE AIR BAG MAY NOT DEPLOY IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT OR 2) THAT IT WILL DEPLOY ON ITS OWN WHILE WE ARE DRIVING. WE ARE VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT GM IS NOT WILLING TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT AND REPLACE AT NO COST AS THIS IS CLEARLY EITHER A MANUFACTURER DEFECT OR A POOR QUALITY PRODUCT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY I WAS USING THE CRUISE CONTROL AND THE CAR BEGAN TO INCREASE IN SPEED WITHOUT MY CONTROL. IT WENT FROM 65 TO 90 IN A FEW SECONDS AND I HAD TO SLAM ON THE BREAKS TO GET IT TO STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. ALSO WE CAN NEVER LET THE GAS GET LOWER THEN A QUARTER OF A TANK OR THE CAR JUST SHUTS DOWN LIKE ITS EMPTY. SOMETIMES THE ENGINE WILL JUST REV UP FOR NO REASON AND OTHER TIMES IT DOESN'T ACCELERATE PROPERLY. YOU CAN PUSH THE GAS AND IT FEELS LIKE THE SPEED IS DELAYED BUT THEN WILL CATCH UP. *JS

THE ACCELERATOR HESITATES WHEN PRESSED. THE CAR DOES NOT MOVE AND WILL THEN ACCELERATE RAPIDLY WHEN AT A STOP AND TRYING TO ACCELERATE THROUGH INTERSECTIONS. DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE FOR REPAIRS. RECURRING ISSUE. ALSO HAS A POPPING OR CLUNKING NOISE IN BACK PASSENGER SIDE. DEALER HAS DUPLICATED BUT NOT REPAIRED. *TR

2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500. ATTORNEY REPRESENTING CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO SERIOUS STRUCTURAL AND SAFETY ISSUES CONCERNING THE VEHICLE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WATER WAS LEAKING INSIDE THE VEHICLE. ACCORDING TO THE INVOICE, THE DEALER FOUND THE WATER LEAK COMING FROM THE BODY SEAM BELOW THE DASH ALONG THE FIREWALL. THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER FRONT SEATS MADE A CHATTERING NOISE. THE DEALER GREASED THE TRACKS. THE ENGINE WAS NOT RUNNING CORRECTLY. THE DEALER REPLACED THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. ALSO, THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE INOPERATIVE, AS WELL AS THE REAR WINDSHIELD WIPER. THE DEALER FOUND NO POWER OPEN CIRCUIT AT THE CONNECTOR AND ALLEGEDLY REPAIRED THE WIRING TO THE WIPER HARNESS.

DASH CRACK AT PASSENGER AIRBAG. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN ABNORMAL AND OVERPOWERING ODOR WAS PRESENT IN THE REAR INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT'S FOUR SMALL CHILDREN WERE ASLEEP IN THE REAR ROW SEATS AND WHEN CALLED UPON, DID NOT AWAKEN TO RESPOND. THE CONTACT EXITED THE VEHICLE TO INSPECT FURTHER AND DISCOVERED THE ODOR. ADDITIONALLY, ALL FOUR CHILDREN HAD BECOME ASPHYXIATED BY THE FUMES. TWO OF THE FOUR CHILDREN WERE TRANSPORTED TO THE HOSPITAL WHERE IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE CHILDREN'S ASTHMA REACTED TO THE OVERPOWERING ODOR, AND WERE GIVEN MEDICATION FOR TREATMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ONE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL FLUID HAD OVERHEATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ANOTHER DEALER FOR THE REPAIRS WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THERE WAS NO FAILURE AND NO REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED. THE CONTACT ALSO EXPERIENCED RAPID ACCELERATION FAILURE WHILE SITTING AT A TRAFFIC STOP. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TEN TIMES YET THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE REPLICATED EACH TIME. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 400 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 55,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

DASH CRACKED NEXT TO THE AIRBAG PANEL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THIS COULD CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO FAIL TO DEPLOY. *TR

BEGAN TO NOTICE A MOLD/MILDEW SMELL IN VEHICLE BOTH IN THE CABIN AND WHEN A/C ON. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GM SERVICE DEALERS TO LOCATE PROBLEM. UNABLE TO LOCATE LEAK AT FIRST INSPECTION. ANOTHER GM DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGED HEAVY MOLD SMELL IN VEHICLE UPON ENTERING, HOWEVER UNABLE TO LOCATE. CONSUMER BEGAN TO SEARCH FOR LEAK AND FOUND WATER HAD ACCUMULATED UNDER FLOORBOARD OF DRIVER'S SIDE. CARPET/PADDING SOAKED AND VERY STRONG MOLD ODOR UPON LIFTING OF CARPET. DEALER STILL HAS VEHICLE AS OF 12/30 AND NO LEAK CAN BE FOUND. MANUFACTURER NOTIFIED THAT SERVICE IS UNABLE TO LOCATE AND REPAIR. ADDITIONALLY, CONSUMER PROVIDED WITH A 2009 CHEVY SUBURBAN TO DRIVE AS LOANER VEHICLE. FOUND THAT THE LOANER ALSO EXHIBITED THE SAME LEAK UNDER DRIVER SIDE FLOORBOARD. DEALER WAS NOTIFIED IMMEDIATELY AND TO INVESTIGATE THAT VEHICLE LEAK AS WELL. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT A MOLD AND MILDEW ODOR WAS BEING EMITTED FROM THE HEATING AND COOLING VENTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000.

THIS IS BECOMING A RECURRING AND REPRODUCIBLE PROBLEM. THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION OCCURS WHILE SLOWING DOWN FOR A STOP SIGN AND DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE MOST RELIABLE WAY TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM IS AS FOLLOWS. BE DRIVING ABOUT 15 MILES PER HOUR, UP A SLIGHT SLOPE. MOVE YOUR FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND ON TO THE BRAKE PEDAL. DEPRESS THE BRAKE LIGHTLY. JUST AS THE VEHICLE STARTS TO SLOW DOWN YOU WILL FEEL THE ACCELERATION OF THE ENGINE AS IF THE VEHICLE IS ATTEMPTING TO MAINTAIN THE 15 MILE PER HOUR PREVIOUS SPEED. THIS UNEXPECTED RESPONSE WILL LAST ABOUT TWO SECONDS AND THEN RETURN TO NORMAL (IDLE) CONDITION. THIS SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED BEHAVIOR IS VERY UNNERVING AND COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT IF THE ROAD CONDITIONS WERE TO BE SLIPPERY. *TR

A SMALL CRACK BEGAN ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF DASH BOARD. WITHIN WEEKS, THE CRACK BECAME MUCH BIGGER. AFTER TWO MORE WEEKS, I NOTICED ANOTHER CRACK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE DASH. SOON, IT BECAME MUCH LARGER TOO. NOW, THERE ARE SEVERAL CRACKS ON THE DASHBOARD. THIS AUTOMOBILE WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY TYPE OF ACCIDENT OR DRIVING ON ROUGH TERRAIN. I DON NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE DASHBOARD WOULD CRACK. I HAVE NEVER OWNED A VEHICLE WHICH HAS HAD THIS HAPPEN. *TR

I HAVE NOTICED THAT WHEN DECELERATING & APPLYING MY BRAKES WHEN APPROACHING A STOP THAT MY VEHICLE ACTUALLY WILL ACCELERATE ALL OF THE SUDDEN. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, NOT ALWAYS, BUT ENOUGH FOR ME TO BE CONCERNED. MY DAUGHTER ALSO EXPERIENCED THIS SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHEN SHE WAS DRIVING MY SUBURBAN. SHE, LIKE ME, SAID IT HAPPENED WHEN SHE WAS APPROACHING A STOP SIGN AND WAS APPLYING BRAKE PRESSURE. THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STOPPED WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE LURCHED FORWARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. ADDITIONALLY, THE REAR LIFT GATE CLOSED ON ITS OWN WHILE THE CONTACT WAS STANDING UNDERNEATH. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BRUISING TO HER FACE. ALSO, THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO ACCELERATE WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,000. *TR

1.)WHEN WE WERE DRIVING THRU THE MOUNTAINS OUR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM STARTED TO GO HAYWIRE AND THE LIGHTS STARTED GOING IN AND OUT AND THE IGNITION STARTED TO ACT UP CAR TURNED OFF A FEW TIMES WE HAD TO RESTART IT WHEN WE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET CHECKED OUT THEY SAID THERE WAS COINS IN THE RADIO. 2.) THE DEFROSTERS FOR THE FRONT WINDSHIELD DOESN'T DEFROST THE WINDOW AT ALL WHEN DRIVING IN COLD DAYS THE WHOLE WINDOW FOGS UP AND FREEZES MAKING VISIBILITY TO NONE AND WE HAVE TO STOP WIPE DOWN THE WIND SHIELD AND DRIVE AGAIN FOR TEN MINUTES THEN THIS PROBLEM GOES ON AND ON THE HEATER GOES ON FULL BLAST BUT NO RESULTS THAT IS A VERY UNSAFE AND UN DRIVABLE AT TIMES. COINS IN THE RADIO? I WAS ASTONISHED AND VERY UPSET HOW COULD AN INDUSTRY MAKE A VEHICLE THAT IF WATER IS SPILLED ON/OR IN THE RADIO OR COINS DROPPED IN THE CD COMPARTMENT THAT THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GOES OUT AND STARTS GOING HAYWIRE ESPECIALLY HERE IN ALASKA A LOT SNOW AND HARSH WINTER DRIVING CONDITIONS ARE NOT GREAT AND IF THE VEHICLE STALLS DO TO THE RADIO AND DEFROSTERS NOT WORKING OR SOMEONE SPILLED SOMETHING ON THE RADIO THEN THE PEOPLE AND CHILDREN WOULD FREEZE TO DEATH THEN WHO WOULD BE AT FAULT THAT MEANS THE COMPANY THAT MAKES THE VEHICLE IS GONNA BE LIABLE FOR THE CONSEQUENCES THE DEFROSTERS NOT WORKING DOESN'T HELP ANY WE HAVE TO DRIVE THRU THIS WEATHER OUT HERE 9MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR AND HAVE TO SUFFER BECAUSE OF THESE SITUATIONS THAT IS INEXCUSABLE AND VERY DANGEROUS TO PUBLIC THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND RESOLVED. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP A FEW TIMES BUT THE PROBLEM STILL CONSISTS DOING THE HORRIBLE DANGEROUS THINGS THAT THE SUBURBAN DOES WE HAVE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE IN AGAIN BECAUSE THE RADIO IS ACTING UP AGAIN AND DEFROSTERS ARE ACTING UP THIS IS A DEFECT AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. *TR

WHEN TRYING TO COME TO A STOP THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO SUDDENLY ACCELERATE RIGHT BEFORE STOPPING. THE VEHICLE IS GOING LESS THAN 5 MPH AND IT QUICKLY LUNGES FORWARD RIGHT BEFORE IT GETS COMPLETELY STOPPED. HAS DONE THIS ON AT LEAST 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. IF I HAD BEEN VERY CLOSE TO THE CAR/OBJECT IN FRONT OF ME I MIGHT HAVE HIT IT. *TR
