Problems with 2011 GMC Yukon AIR BAGS

On average, the 2011 GMC Yukon starts to “feel” problems with the AIR BAGS and its various aspects after 111 373 miles.

Recently reported AIR BAGS problems on 2011 GMC Yukon

Dashboard is cracking and will possibly cut airbag or driver in a crash. plastic is brittle and could shatter. suspension has poor dampening. truck was repaired several times by dealer only to fail soon after repairs. truck bounces over sharp bumps and becomes dangerous at highway speeds. transmission shudders and shakes

A crack appeared on the front dash next to the passenger side airbag. the vehicle was stationary and cracked overnight. i'm concerned about the airbag working properly.

My yukon's dash is cracked in several places, some extending 14 inches interfering with the passenger airbag. this is a safety concern for myself and my family. the second large crack is located above and behind the steering wheel on the dashboard as well. nothing was dropped or anyway i or my family cracked it. after researching, this is a common issue with my make model and year. i believe gm should own this defect and protect its loyal drivers and consumers, rather than wait and see if an airbag doesn't deploy properly, god forbid, risking the lives of innocents. i served my country in iraq because i chose to, gm can choose to defend its consumers as well. even a discount on repair or replacement would be appreciated as i know people just expect everything to be given to them. thank you for your consideration

The dash has cracked all away the cross of the pad and now has cracked producing jagged plastic shards around the airbag compartment

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2011 gmc yukon. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v381000 (air bags). beck and masten buick gmc north (11300 dm 1960 w, houston, tx 77065, 281-469-5222) was contacted and confirmed that parts were not available for the recall remedy. the manufacturer was not notified. the contact had not experienced a failure. vin tool confirms parts not available.

As you're already aware of from several previous complaints, the dash board in our vehicle is cracked over the instrument panel, and is also cracked in the middle of the dash. it is spreading over the entire dash and compromised the airbag system, which is truly a hazard. i'm afraid to drive it. and, this is not a result of heat cracking the dashboard b/c we keep our car in the garage and hardly drive it during the week! this is definitely a defect with gmc and i don't know why they won't recall it!! even toyota has the same issue, except they offered a recall and allowed owners the opportunity to get the issue fixed. this is truly a safety hazard and i'm so disappointed in gmc. cheap and won't fix their manufacture mistake!!!

Takata recall. i am unable to get the airbag replaced due to a lack of replacement units. i called today and the dealer(days chevrolet) does not have replacement units. my original notice from gmc is dated july 2016. i discussed the issue with gmc in january 2017 and they said no parts were available. i have called three other times in the period of time up to now. no parts. why is there not a plan to address this serious safety issue? it is now two years from the first notice. *js

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2011 gmc yukon. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v381000 (air bags); however, the parts to do the repair were unavailable. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair as the recall notice was received over a year ago. the dealer (bradshaw automotive group, 14000 e wade hampton blvd, greer, sc 29651) was contacted and confirmed that the parts were not available for the recall remedy. the manufacturer was contacted several times and was unable to confirm when the parts were to become available. the contact recently received a postcard from tk holdings, alerting him that they filed for bankruptcy. the contact had not experienced a failure. vin tool confirms parts not available.

Takata recall, manufacture refuses to remedy the recall even the parts are available in the dealership ( as indicated by the part department of the dealership)

'takata recall" gm says it has no resolution for airbag recall as of 2/6/18. also dash board has 2 cracks at passenger airbag. i am concerned dash board may injure passenger if airbag inflates. gm case# 8-3791360606

Air bag

Takata recall - purchased from a dealer and called two other dealers and none have parts for the recall

Takata recall after receiving a notice regarding the recall i contacted a local gmc dealer. i was told that takata has filed chapter 11 in the u.s. so the parts for this potentially deadly airbag recall are not available while "things get sorted out". that doesn't make me feel very comfortable as this is a vehicle driven by me or my wife with our 3 children inside.

Takata recall. gmc still refuses to replace the airbags in my vehicle.

The plastic dash is cracked next to the passenger airbag. according to the internet there are many and gm will not recall them. don't know what would happen to the passenger if the airbag deployed with the plastic dash cracked around it.
