Two stress fractures occurred in dashboard. One above the instrument panel and one adjacent to passenger airbag. Crack above passenger airbag could interfere and puncture airbag during crash operation. Crack above instrument panel is quite large and could catastrophically fail during a crash.

I noticed cracks opening near the front passenger airbag area and on the top of speedometer cluster. Contacted the GM and I was told a series of excuses such as: "your warranty is over", "you bought the car used ( I bought it from a GM dealer under the pre-owned warranty)", or "maybe you used products that crack the plastic!" after a brief research I found out tens of thousands of complaints about GM made vehicles with the same problem. The crack open at the same exact spots, down to the millimeter, and it happen in the brand new cars as well as the older ones. It is clear that this is a manufacturer defective item, and result of a wrong design. GM does not replace the part unless we pay for it. They are not concerned that parts could fly into the cabin as a result of the air bag deployments and refuse to address the issue. Our cars loose also their value with a defective/broken dash board. The funniest excuse by GM was: "oh, the dash parts are made in Mexico! you know how the mexicans are!"

In April of 2013 I took my GMC into dealership because of the crack that started above my instrument panel and was traveling toward my airbag. The dealer said they were aware of the issue and that GM had repaired some but was no longer doing so. He also said that if they replaced the dash with a new one, it would do the same thing. The crack has continued to travel and now my airbag panel is raised on the dash. I contacted GM and they offered to split the cost of the repair at $400-$500 with no warranty on the repair. They agreed that it is a safety issue. My interior door latches also began peeling which left sharp edges of plastic (?)-my daughter sliced her finger opening the passenger side door from the inside. GM at first refused to replace them in April of 2013 but as of today, offered to replace them at no cost to me.

Traveling approximately 60 mph on a partly sunny day, approximately 27 degrees outside with my heater on, my sunroof spontaneously shattered with a sound similar to a gunshot. At that point, the glass did not fall but was cracked into thousands of pieces. Later as I drove the glass began to fall apart. I was not following any vehicle and was not driving under a bridge or around any trees so there was nothing that could have struck my sunroof. The roadway was smooth and my sunroof has never sustained any damage in the past.

Rear hatch/lift gate has no manual handle to open. When unlocking power locks rear hatch will not open, there is no way to open lift gate from inside or outside of vehicle. If an accident would happen there would be no way out of rear of vehicle. Rear hatch will not open at all, it is all electronic and will not open. This is a common problem for all GM SUV's. have contacted GMC and they don't seem to about issue.

There is a significant crack in the dash connecting the air bag component to the body. The first crack was found back in February and now there are 2 more cracks - one more on the air bag connection and one above the cluster dome. My fear is that if the airbag is to deploy, the sharp edges resulting from the defective dash would result in significant injury even if it is a minor crash. I believe this is a huge safety issue.
