2016 Silverado Is First To Offer HID Headlights Standard

I can honestly say that I have never known anyone with this model year GM truck or SUV to a problem with a cracking dash. Really the only vehicles I can think of are the early 2000's Dodge Rams.

No cracks ever in my 2007 dash. However the popping sounds in my 2014 dash make me wonder if one will show up on this truck haha

Unreal. What is wrong with people. How do you sue for a cosmetic deal on an 8 year old truck and it is not safety related?

Hard to say it's not a safety issue. My cracks are all around my airbag in the dash. If they weren't honest that it was their fault, why would they be honest about this. I'd hate to find out it was safety related once someone's airbag deploys along with their dash...

Mine cracked after just 3 yrs on my 2010 Sierra, yes it is a problem and looks like crap!

I have two big cracks in my 07 Silvy...I will have fixed if these folks are successful..otherwise, ITS A TRUCK...Cosmetic damages add character ;-)

My 2007 VMAX(whick I bought brand new in 2007) had cracks on it above the glove box by the air bag which started cracking at right about 70k ...I just sold it and bought a 2013 LTZ so hopefully this one doesnt crack!!!! :-)

I have the crack in the upper left corner of the passenger airbag area, and looking at the SIlverados and Suburbans in our motorpool at work, most of them are cracked in the same spot.

See the forum below, this problem has effected 1000's of trucks. Mine cracked 3 years after it was purchased new, with 75,000 miles. Some people have gotten their dealership to replace it, if they happen to have a good relationship with the service dept. and even the replacement dashes have cracked. It's a design flaw and should not be ignored my GM.

Correct me if I am mistaken... The dash cracking is only a problem on the "Higher End" LTZ SLT Dash that is shared with the Trucks and SUV's. The base SLE LS Dash that was only available in trucks did not have this problem.

My 2009 silverado has a cracked dash. who do I get in contact with?

My 2008 GMC Sierra as well as my brother in law's 2011 both have cracked in the upper left corner of the airbag. His was cracked at 32,000 miles and mine just under 175,000. Dealer wouldn't fix his when under warranty. This has NOTHING to do with LTZ, etc. Both of our trucks are SLE's. Mine didn't actually crack until I started parking it in the sun beginning this past summer while at work. It's been garage kept since new.

My 2009 Silverado LTZ has the cracked dashboard also. The upper left corner passenger airbag cracked over a year ago, around the same time the dealer was working on the oil consumption issue.

Just traded in my 2008 Silverado and my dash looked brand new. I live in Texas, but I always use a dash cover though. Is this a extreme cold weather thing? Maybe when the dash is flexing at below freezing temps?

Not due to cold weather. It has to do with parking it in direct sunlight.
