Dash is cracked and damaged
Dash cracked in 2 places.
Approximately 6 months ago the dash on the passenger side started to crack in my 2012 chevy tahoe. it has always been in a heated garage and out of the sunlight. on december 1, 2015 is the date i purchased the vehicle and the dealer talked me into putting a nano technology coating on the entire vehicle to keep it in like new condition, which cost me $899. i took it to the dealership and showed them and they were going to let me know if abra would fix it, however, after 2 months still no response from the dealership and i contacted them again yesterday. the other thing is the driver side door handle has cracked underneath and so when you close the door it feels like you are going to pull the door vinyl right off. i have never had anything like this happen before.

This week the temperature fluctuated drastically. my tahoe was in the garage for 2 solid days. i pulled it out the next two days and drove to work like any normal day but the temperatures were cold in the mornings and warmed up through the day. today we pulled the tahoe out of the garage, got in to go to church and noticed that the dash had cracked in the upper corner of the airbag compartment towards the air vent. i am very concerned that should i be in an accident and the airbag deploy, that shards of plastic would break and be impelled through the vehicle possible harming my family.

The dashboard has started cracking and it is at dealer now and they are telling me this is only one they ever heard of and they can do nothing about but it is a certified vehicle that i've only put 20 some thousand miles on and it was sold to me with full warranty as a new one and after looking on several websites it seems that a lot of others have this problem, afraid if it keeps cracking it may get right into my instruments and electrical or worse continue into my airbag , surely there is something can be done about this and the distraction from the dashboard flopping up and down can lead to an accident, it only takes a moment for something bad to happen. please if you are able to influence a decision about this, do so it could mean the difference in a life maybe

2012 tahoe dashboard cracked for the second time apparently due to defective material. dashboard was replaced less than one year after purchasing it and 2 years later it cracked again. vehicle has not been involved in any accidents and cracks appeared for no known reason. there have been many reports from other owners of gm vehicles and gm has not had a recall. since the air bags are located in the dash, there could be a potential hazard if air bags are deployed. according to the dealership, gm is still using the same material and owners have to pay for part or all of the replacement after original 3-year manufacturer warranty. if it cracks again after one year of installation, we are looking at another repair bill!
I currently own a 2012 tahoe that the dashboard has cracked over the drivers area and cracked in two place on the passenger airbag causing a serious safety issue should the airbag deploy it could seriously injure someone or kill them
I'm not sure exactly when the first crack in the dashboard appeared but i noticed it about six months ago on the passenger side. then on 05/16/17, i cranked the car, pulled out of the parking space and started down the parking garage ramp. that's when i heard a loud cracking noise. so i was traveling approximately 5 mph. after i pulled out and stopped at the red light i looked and the driver side dash above the instrument panel had a large v shaped crack in it. because the dash is broken on both sides it bounces up and down violently while driving. when i got home i was taken pictures and noticed that the entire dashboard has cracks on both sides. at least 10 cracks. it looks as if the dashboard was hit by an earthquake. after some research i found that this seems to be a problem with a lot of gm cars. it definitely is a defective part but even more i'm concerned with the fact that this could cause the air bags malfunction in the event of an accident because the entire dash would explode.

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.

Two issues: 1. dashboard cracked at airbag on passenger side and on drivers side. airbag deployment appears unsafe due to cracking. 2. in hot and humid weather to, the traction and stability systems become inoperable and the message system requests that maintenance be performed. this message can come up a few minutes after driving or can come on right after starting the vehicle.
Our 2012 ltz tahoe only has 64,768 miles on it and is garage kept. we also keep a sunscreen in the window when it is sitting outside. we have started noticing cracks in the dashboard in 2 different places. we took it to the local chevrolet dealer and they said we would have to pay for replacement. around $1000.00. i do not think we should have to pay for something that should be recalled seeing as though the internet is flooded with people having the same problem. i also feel this could be a safety issue since it is around the airbags!
Dash cracking in multiple places.
Cracked dash right where the airbag is. i park my car in the garage and use sunshades when not parked inside. my tahoe is not that old. i take excellent care of it, and there should be no reason for the dash to crack. it almost seems like there may be too much pressure from the airbag being inside there causing it to crack. it's definitely a manufacture defect. i'm not sure the airbag will work properly if needed.
Two advancing cracks in the dash.
