On 12/27/18, I heard an excessive rattling noise coming from the dash. When I parked the car, and the vehicle was stationary, I leaned forward to see if there was something on the dash, and noticed the dash had cracked over the driver's side instrument panel / airbag. The dash also cracked over the left side above the glove box/airbag area. The crack was the source of the rattling. This vehicle is parked in a garage and has not been exposed to excessive sunlight. Nor has the vehicle ever been in an accident.

Vehicle dashboard cracked all across. Vehicle always parked in garage. Never in accident. Noticed summer of 2018. Reported to dealership. In process of trying to get covered under my extended warranty. This problem should be a recall after reading all of the complaints.

problem #28

Nov 012014

Yukon

  • 50,000 miles
The dashboard has cracked in several places that appear to be in danger of projecting shards of hard plastic when the airbags deploy. These cracks began on their own and not as a result of abuse or accident.

Very large crack in the dashboard extending from passenger side air bag to the instrument panel. This is defect in design/construction and will affect passenger air bag effectiveness and safety of occupants if pieces of the dash are projected outwards at a high rate of speed. This is unacceptable. GMC needs to initiate a voluntary recall immediately.

problem #24

Sep 012015

Yukon

  • miles
Multiple cracks in the dash, including one by the passenger airbag; truck has been garage kept for entire life, so it is not from sun damage. There are many complaints of the same issue online, and every time I ride in a lyft or uber Yukon or Tahoe that is a 2007-2014 model, I see the same cracks - this issue is prolific.

Dash severely cracking. Has not been involved in any accidents it just started on it's own and is gradually getting worse. I notice it more and more every time I get in my truck. I noticed it probably sometime last year. There is also a facebook group with so many other people this is happening too. I think GMC is using cheap defective materials! https://M.facebook.com/groups/251892298253/

The dash above the instrument panel is severely cracked and without any reason. There is also another crack in the center area. If air bag deployed not sure what could happen. Car has always been kept out of extreme weather in a garage. I have owned other GMC Yukon and have never had this problem before.

1) dashboard is cracking on the drivers side. The crack has progressed directly over the arched area of the dashboard over the instrument panel. The crack has progressed to the point that the dashboard is flapping where the crack is located. 2) two of my tires are losing air pressure due to corrosion problems with the chrome rims/wheels. One of the rims has a 2 inch crack in the chrome finish.

Yukon

  • 110,000 miles
There are 3 cracks in the dashboard of my 2011 GMC Yukon. One crack is near the left front corner of the passenger airbag. Two cracks are located near the front right side of the instrument panel. I believe this is a defect in the materials and the GM should replace the dashboard free of charge. Vehicle was stationary.
