my 2007.5 GMC Duramax has been parked for 1 month, had to barrow a truck to go to work, just not willing to pay the 1600-4500 dollars that suppliers or private sellers are asking for the TCM, tried a private seller on EBAY and it turned out to be a scam, local Dealership has no clue on ETA, I use my truck 6 days out of the week and now sitting not being moved may cause other issue when I do finally get it going again, the problem with my durumax is the TCM Transmission Control Module, I was already at home when issue started.

I left my vehicle for service (19 April 2023 - approximately 8:30 am CT) for an urgent safety recall to Bommarito West County GMC dealership located at 15736 Manchester, Ellisville, MO 63011 (Phone: 636-391-7200). When I drove the vehicle in the dealership and had not issues driving and steering. And when I picked it up at approximately 12:30 pm the same day the service consultant (Joshua Delanoix) did not bring the vehicle to me the same as I left it. Joshua asked that I pick it up in the parking lot, instead. I drove off the lot and noticed that the steering wheel would pull severely off to the right side when breaking causing the car to become unstable and steering towards oncoming traffic. I slowed down until I could retain better control of the vehicle to get home. Then, at approximately 4:30 pm, I drove back to the dealership and spoke to the same service consultant. He then referred me to the service manager (Pat Roberts). I explained to service manager that I could not drive the vehicle safely and requested a safety check. Pat refused to check the service work or the vehicle safety and disregarded my concerns. Afterwards, I spoke to the sales manager (Larry Buchhorn) and explained again my safety concern and he followed up with the same service manager and told me that there was nothing they could do and that the service manager's supervisor (Mike Simms) would contact me. Finally, I was allowed to drive out of the dealership with the same safety issue for the second time.

MY TRUCK HAS A DEFECTIVE DASH THAT HAS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES FOR NO REASON AND NO ROUGH TREATMENT OR ANYTHIG THAT WOULD CAUSE IT TO BREAK, IT CRACKED AND BROKE ALL ON ITS OWN... AND GMC SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING BECAUSE IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THIS IS A DEFECT HAPPENING TO THOUSANDS OF THESE TRUCKS AND ALL THE CRACKS AND BREAKS AND IN THE SAME EXACT SPOTS WHICH WOULD SEEM TO BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT NOT A CONSUMER ISSUE...IF I WERE TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT THE DEFECTIVE BROKEN DASH COULD SERIOUSLY INJURE SOMEONE. MY TRUCK IS ALSO PART OF THE TAKATA RECALL AND I CAN NOT GO IN TO GET THE AIR BAG FIXED BECAUSE IT WILL FURTHER BREAK MY DASH. THIS DASH ISSUE IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND A RECALL NEEDS TO BE MADE FOR THIS ISSUE

THE DASH OF MY 2007 GMC 2500HD PICKUP TRUCK HAS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES INCLUDING AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG, UP AND OVER THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER HUMP, AND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DASH. THESE CRACKS HAVE EXPANDED OVER THE PAST YEAR AND HAVE BECOME QUITE LARGE. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE CRACKS AT THE AIRBAG COVER MAY IMPEDE THE PROPER FUNCTION OF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM AS WELL. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH MANY GMC TRUCK OWNERS WITH MODEL YEARS 2007 - 2011 AND MY TRUCK DISPLAYS CRACKING VERY SIMILAR TO OTHERS POSTED TO WEBSITES ON THE INTERNET.
