MY YUKON HAS APPROXIMATELY 45000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS BEEN GARAGED AT ALL TIMES WHEN NOT BEING DRIVEN. THE DASH HAS CRACKS THAT HAVE FORMED IN THE SKIN PART OF THE SURFACE PLASTIC IN THE AREA NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AND THE HUMP PART ABOVE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO HAVE IT REPAIRED BY A HIGH END BODY SHOP I WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY BECAUSE IT WILL DO IT AGAIN. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS ON GMC MODELS. I DID FURTHER CHECKING WITH A NUMBER OF REPAIR SHOPS AND SERVICES THAT DO VINYL REPAIRS AS WELL. THE PREMIER COMPANY I SPOKE WITH TOLD ME THAT THE REPAIRS MAY NOT LAST A DAY AND THAT EVEN IF I REPLACE THE DASH SKIN COMPLETELY IT WILL LIKELY OCCUR IN THE REPLACEMENT. IN READING ONLINE I DISCOVERED THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM AND THAT GM REFUSES TO DO A RECALL AND IN ONLY SOME INSTANCES WILL COVER HALF THE COST WHICH CAN EXCEED $1200.00. THERE IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE AIRBAG INVOLVEMENT ESPECIALLY WITH THIS VEHICLE HAVING A TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL AND STILL NO REPLACEMENT FOR IT. PHOTS OF EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUE ARE POSTED ON LINE BY NUMEROUS INDIVIDUALS AND THE MASSIVE PROBLEM CAN BE EASILY VERIFIED IF YOU DO A SIMPLE RESEARCH ROUTINE. THE PUBLIC NEEDS YOUR HELP TO MAKE THE MANUFACTURER CORRECT THE ISSUE OF CHEAP AND FAULTY MANUFACTURING PROCESSES AND MAKE ITS CUSTOMERS WHOLE.
