No part available for the climate control, with a mail in procedure and a 30 day turn around time. this creates a visibility hazard while driving. inability to control the heat during colder climate while creating foggy windows and trying to travel. this is a safety hazard for the driver as well as the public! i cannot take the part out for a month because i have no idea what the weather will be like 10 minutes from now and if i did would be without for 30 days and not have the ability to clear a foggy windshield!
Tire mounted under vehicle is not same size as tires in use, safety question.

I went out to my truck on 10/15/2016 to notice a crack in my dashboard between the airbag and the vent. since then i have made several calls to starting with the dealership i bought my truck from. i explained to them what was going on to only be told there was nothing they can do under the factory warranty. i can however pay out of my pocket for a new dashboard installed. now i find this aggravating as this is not something i did nor was the vehicle involved in an accident. it has simply been sitting in my driveway!!! i then called a body shop to see if there was anything they can do, it was then i was informed that this is a common issue for chevy and that this crack will continue to spider out and eventually spread!!!!! they can fix it but unless i replace the whole dashboard they will not warranty it!!!! but again i would have to pay for this out of my pocket. i then researched online to see if exactly how many cases there are out there involving dashboard cracks, come to find out there was a lawsuit against chevy for this exact reason. if chevy has this many complaints and is aware of the dashboard cracking why aren't they trying to fix the problem and offer a resolution! this concerns me as this is near the airbag, could this cause harm to the driver or the passengers if the airbag were to deploy???????????

I fought gm on this for 7 months. and did so 30 days from my purchase date. when i slow down my truck makes a horrible clunking noise. and will rev up in a sense and push you forward. most of the time it's only probably a food but other times i has caused me to go through stop signs. luckily no one is there but i fear that when i have my fiance and 3 kids in the truck i may get pushed forward and t boned. or i may go into someone in front of me. or into a fence. and they say it's normal every time. but it's getting worse and my thing is is if it's normal.. then it's a serious issue. i have read reviews about other people having the same issue. this should be recalled. it's not safe and definitely not practical. they say it has something to do with my 6 speed. but i fought gm and he place i bought it from for months and months. starting from repairs on my truck that was promised to be fixed to this transmission issue and them claiming they fixed it with some sensor. then lying saying they never fixed anything when gm questioned them. luckily i had someone that worked there that felt bad for me so he gave me all the info i needed. all in all gm ended up giving me a bumper to bumper gm warranty for 4yrs. for a problem they claim was normal. that's generous of them. but it's getting worse and i'm scared for my families safety.
