Recently reported AIR BAGS problems on 2007 Chevrolet Suburban 1500

The dashboard is cracked in several places including over the instrument panel and around the passenger side airbag. if the airbags were to deploy, shards of the dashboard would become instant projectiles into the cabin potentially causing serious injury or death. cracks occurred over a period of time when the vehicle was not in motion.

Dash cracking around passenger airbag. suspect deployment could send shoot plastic at driver and passenger. *tr

My dash started to crack about 2 months after i bought it. it started with a small crack near the airbag; but has now has expanded causing the airbag cover to lift. the dash is now cracked on both driver and the passenger side. i bought the vehicle 3 years ago and have spoke with the service department on numerous occasions in regards to fixing the problem as it seems to be progressing over the years; but each time i have been told that the manufacturer is only willing to cover a percentage.

The dashes of all gm trucks and suvs are cracking, badly. they're designed poorly and crack right around the passenger airbag deployment section. in the event of air bag deployment, it will send jagged plastic shards towards the occupants. this is completely unsafe and a serious hazard but gm refuses to correct the issue even though it has been acknowledged, hence i am filing this complaint. if you simply google gm cracked dash and enjoy all the posts and videos from frustrated americans. i have 4 daughters and it not right to have to worry about one of the being injured but a faulty dash please help. thank you. *tr

The plastic on the dash around the air bag has cracked. i am afraid to have anyone sit in the front passenger seat. if the airbag deploys the dash is going to break apart. *tr

While driving vehicle, heard a loud noise-- thought initially a rock had hit windshield. when stopped vehicle, noticed that the dash had cracked at both front edges of airbag on passenger side of dash. went to local chevy dealership shortly afterwards, was told no warranty as vehicle past 36k mileage limit. i inquired as to safety of these cracks, asking what might happen if airbag deployed and "pieces of dash were projected at passengers". dealer indicated nothing they could do. *tr

The door handles have cut three members of my family because the metal is peeling off of the plastic. seat belts are falling apart and at least 3 of them do not latch at all. this is very dangerous. there definitely should be a recall especially for the seat belts. air bag light is constantly on and the dealer of course wants to "fix" it and states that if there is a crash that it may not work properly.........this after i had the top half of the engine rebuilt due to oil consumption problem. then there is the tire pressure monitor which apparently has issues after having new tires put on my car. nothing but problems with this hunk of junk. will never buy another chevy vehicle. *tr

Dash cracked in three places, two around passenger airbag cover, one directly over steering wheel. *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet suburban 1500. the contact stated that the stabilitrack warning light continued to illuminate on the instrument panel. the vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. while driving 40 mph, all six side curtain air bags deployed without impact or rollover. she was unable to see out any of the windows and the passenger compartment became filled with smoke from the air bag debris. the contact was injured. the dealer found no failures with the vehicle. the insurance company sent a crash team to investigate the failure and they stated that although there was no recall, the air bag sensors were too sensitive and would activate without warning. they also stated that they observed several similar instances with the same model vehicle. the failure and current mileages were 24,000.

The sensor for the passenger side airbag on our 2007 chevrolet suburban does not function properly with a small adult weighing between 105 and 115 pounds sitting in the seat. the airbag continually switches back and forth from on to off on a trip. my wife will try to find a position where the airbag is on, only to notice several minutes later it is again off. *jb
