My dash cracked 5 years ago, i replaced with new from dealer $1000.00 cost and it is now cracked again. In addition i have an outstanding recall on airbags that have been recalled but gm does not have parts to replace. So now i could have shrapnel from airbag and shrapnel from my new $1000.00 dash. Wow gm, get it together and get the airbags in stock and stop using inferior materials on $1000.00 dash boards.
