THERE ARE SEVERAL CRACKS IN THE DASH OF MY 2010 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN AS EXPLAINED BELOW. ONE OF THESE CRACK IS IN THE AREA OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WHICH IS MOUNTED ON TOP OF THE DASH. AS THE DASH EXPANDS IN THE HEAT, TYPICALLY IN THE HOT MONTHS OF THE SUMMER, THE PLASTIC PORTION OF THE DASH WILL COVER THE AIRBAG PORTION OF THE DASH. I AM CONCERNED THAT IF I DO NOT NOTICE THIS AND THE VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN A CRASH, THE AIRBAG WILL NOT OPERATE PROPERLY. I AM AFRAID VEHICLE OCCUPANTS MIGHT BE INJURED BY THE DASH IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED UNDER THE PLASTIC PORTION OF THE DASH OR THAT THEY WILL BE INJURED IF THE AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY PROPERLY. THERE ARE ALSO TWO CRACKS IN THE DASH…
TAKATA RECALL - UNABLE TO GET REPAIRS. DEALERS HAVE NO INFORMATION.
THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING AND CAN BE POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS. IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS THE CRACKED DASH COULD BECOME MULTIPLE PROJECTILE MISSLES.
THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN GARAGED SINCE IT WAS NEW YET THE DASH BOARD HAS CRACKS EVERYWHERE. THERE ARE CRACKS AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WHICH I AM CONCERNED FOR MY PASSENGERS SAFETY AS IT MAY BE POSSIBLE IF THE AIR BAG WERE TO DEPLOY, PLASTIC SHRAPNEL FROM THE DEFECTIVE DASH MAY FLY AND INJURE SOMEONE.

Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation public data (complaints, manufacturer communications, investigations), model years 2010 and later. Had a safety problem? Report it to NHTSA.
In complaints filed with NHTSA for model years 2010–2011, owners most often name: air bags, structure, fuel/propulsion system. 12 complaints are on record.
No. A complaint is an unverified report from an owner. A technical service bulletin (TSB) is the manufacturer telling dealers how to fix a known issue; it is not a safety recall and is usually covered only under warranty. A recall is a formal safety action, and its repair is free.
File a vehicle safety complaint at NHTSA.gov. NHTSA reads every report, and patterns of complaints are what open defect investigations and, eventually, recalls.
