Just called my local dealer and was quoted a price of $216.30 for a new upper dash panel. I would hope it is the reinforced model, but will have to wait and see it up close. Now I need to find a tutorial on removing the old one. :confused:

Why you pay for GM mistake? ?? I can't get it!

By doing/manufacturing the correction they (GM) AGREE that the first was nade wrong! ! And if you know about the cracking before buying I understand but you didn't know and they want you toay for there extra part!?

Why it only occur to GM trucks only?

You can too guarantee him something, you can guarantee him that he will be pissed off when you get through with him... You can guarantee him that he will probably never want to buy another GM product again...

Dear GM JT

I love you therefore I am trying my best to be nice and good but GM can't do the same!?
Every day I drive by the dealer ship i see the all new trail blazer and wow I love it but when I remember how cheaply the interior is and all the fun I would get out revisiting the fixing shops all the time and becoming social with most of the spare parts shops and fixing shops I cannot think of any thing else other than to thank you love and GM too for keep me busy socially with these people and forgetting about my main social life (wife, friends, clients...) I truly can't think of how I should thank you all for it.

You want to hear something kinda funny, when I bought my wifes 07 tahoe I went to auto zone or something and walked in and said I want all the parts needed to get this 07 tahoe back into shape... he said no problem and walked to the back of the store and came back with a for sale sign.

No, I haven't and don't think I will take it on. GM has agreed to replace mine for $200 and I'm going that route. Those pictures are some I found on the internet.

I think you shouldn't pay a cent!!

The part was updated!! It means there should be a recall and yes a big one too!

But such nay harm the new model but dealing with this way well keep people away!!!

Again I am sure who ever in charge is to busy do his job!!

I don't understand it!! I can't get it!!

Well, I called GMC and expressed my disappointment withe the cracked dashboard and the number of tahoe/yukon owners that have the a cracked dash in the same 2 places. They opened a service request, took all my information, and said a service manager from my local dealer would be in contact with me.

Fast forward 2 weeks....

I called GMC back because I never received a call back from a service manager. The guy pulled up my request and said it was closed because the service manager said nothing could be done because my Yukon has over 100K miles.

And that's it. Disappointed. And what does my local dealer charge for replacing this faulty dashboard? $600 for labor + $440 for part. WTH!

Yep, My Tahoe also has the dreaded double crack. To add insult to injury, it has prompted my service airbag light to come on. It's an 07 tahoe, over 100k miles, so I am sure I am SOL.

I haven't yet been able to find anyone other than the dealer that sells the replacement dashboard piece. The crack in my dash behind the steering wheel is now about 6 inches long and rattles. Drives me crazy. I may end up putting out the $450 and install it myself all the while cursing GM.

Glue it and cover it!

That's my advice!

Yes there is another "up dated" part or dash because they know! But it is not for you, it is an after market part!

No need for a recall just please consider buying the new expensive model :)

Best regards,
GM!

Ours has the double crack too and when I went to replace the ambient light sensor that piece broke into 3 pieces, so now I have to purchase that piece. I was using a plastic trim tool around the fastener and BAM the damn thing broke.
