THE DASH BOARD IS CRACKED AND RATTLES NEAR THE AIR BAG. THIS IS CONCERNING THAT IF AN ACCIDENT WOULD OCCUR, THE CRACKED DASH COULD CAUSE FURTHER BODILY HARM. THIS DEFECT JUST SHOWED UP UNEXPECTEDLY AND I AM AFRAID WILL CRACK MORE AS TIME GOES ON. I CANNOT RECALL IF IT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING OR STATIONARY.

THE DASH BOARD IS CRACKING AND THE DEALER WILL NOT COVER ANY REPAIR BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY. WHEN THE DASH BOARD FAILS TO PROTECT THE ELECTRONICS THERE IS A DANGER OF LOSS OF CONTROL. MY POSITION IS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL AND IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED.

CRACKED DASHBOARD. THIS IS THE SECOND GM VEHICLES I'VE OWNED IN WHICH CRACKS APPEAR ON THE DASHBOARD FOR NO APPARENT REASON. MY CONCERN IS IF THE AIR BAG IS DEPLOYED, SMALL SHARDS OF PLASTIC MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURY.

OVER THE PAST FOUR MONTHS MY 2012 YUKON HAS BEEN HESITATING / STOPPING. I HAVE ACCELERATE INTO IN THE INTERSECTION AND VEHICLE HESITATED ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS CAME ON AND OFF NUMEROUS TIMES, FLASHING STABILIZATION AND TRACTION SWITCHING ON AND OFF. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AT LEAST FIVE TIMES EACH TIME THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE SECOND TO THE LAST TIME THEY STATED I NEEDED A NEW FUEL PUMP WHICH THEY REPLACED AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUED WITH IN TWO DAYS AND CONTINUES TO THIS DAY . THE LAST TIME I TOOK IT IN THEY STATED THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH GM VEHICLES FROM 2013 TO 2017 CAUSING STALLING HESITATION LACK OF PERFORMANCE IN A SETTING IN HIGH AMBIENT TEMPERATURES AND THERE IS NO FIX FOR IT . I BELIEVE THIS IS A GREAT SAFETY RISK FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO LIVE IN HIGH CLIMATE AREAS .

MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY, STATIONARY, ON A SUBURBAN STREET IN A SMALL TOWN OVERNIGHT BEGINNING AT ABOUT 8PM ON FRIDAY AUGUST 12,2016. THE FOLLOWING MORNING, AUGUST 13, 2016 AT AT ABOUT 7:30 AM I ENTERED THE VEHICLE TO GO TO THE STORE AND OBSERVED A LARGE CRACK RUNNING PERPENDICULAR WITH THE DASH FROM NEAR THE WINDOW TO A OVER THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT WITH SIMILAR GM MODELS BETWEEN 2007-2013(14). THE SAFETY CONCERN IS THAT THE POORLY CRAFTED PLASTIC DASHBOARD CRACKS EASILY WITH NO PRESSURE APPLIED TO IT. THIS MEANS THAT THAT IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION, WITH GREAT PRESSURE APPLIED, THE DASH WOULD DISINTEGRATE AT AN ALARMING RATE AND WOULD LEAD TO SHARDS OF PLASTIC IMPAILING THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE WITH VARYING AMOUNTS OF HARM. THIS DEFECT IS WELL DOCUMENTED BY SEVERAL OTHER GM SUV/TRUCK OWNERS FOR THIS YEAR SPAN OF PRODUCTION.
