TAKATA RECALL. MY DENALI HAS FALLEN ILL TO THE WELL DOCUMENTED POORLY ENGINEERED DASH CRACKING, IN MY CASE AROUND PASSENGER AIRBAG OPEN. THIS CREATES AN EMINENT PERSONAL INJURY SAFETY HAZARD TO FRONT SEAT PASSENGER. IF A SITUATION AROSE WHEREAS AIR BAG WAS ACTIVATED, AS AIRBAG COVER EJECTED, THE DASH BECOMES AN INSTANT INSTRUMENT OF CAPABLE OF GREAT BODILY HARM OR EVEN DEATH, AS SHRAPNEL FILLS THE CABIN, FROM DISINTEGRATING DASH PLASTIC FLYING BACK, IN CERTAIN INJURY TO PASSENGER. GM IS WELL AWARE OF THE DEFECT, YET REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE.

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE USED. ITS THE SAME PROBLEM SO MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING. MY DASHBOARD IS CRACKED ON BOTH DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS SIDE ALL THE WAY TO THE AIRBAG. WE HAVE EXTREMELY CONCERNED THAT IF THE AIRBAG GOES OFF, THAT WHOEVER IS DRIVING OR A PASSENGER WILL GET HIT WITH PIECES OF PLASTIC FROM THE DASH CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY. I COULD KEEP PASSENGERS OUT OF THE FRONT, BUT THE DRIVER I CANNOT..WE NEED TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED. I WORK AT A HONDA DEALERSHIP AND HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN.PAX SIDE HAD A SMALL CRACK WHEN PURCHASED BUT IT IS NOW ABOUT 3 INCHES LONG EACH..
