I take care of my truck very well and I had it since day one.
I just realized my dashboard cracked on 2 different spots both on the top.
On crack is about 2 inches and other is about 3.5 inches.
Does anybodty else have this issue??
Can anybody suggest what to do at this point.
Truck is out of warranty.

Thanx

Supposedly, GM is making good on the cracked dashboards. Even after your warranty has expired. It's a very common defect in these vehicles. They crack near the airbag, and they crack near the driver's side hump.

There's a fairly large thread on TYF about this exact issue. I'll try and locate it for you. Being out of warranty, though, you maybe SOL with getting this taken care of by GM.

Grilled2003,
GM is aware of this issue and trying to help as much as possible. Are you the original owner? And how many miles do you have on the vehicle?

Is it true or not that GM has extended the warranty on the dashboards

in particular to 5 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first?

It depends where you are. If you live in a crappy GM region, they will offer you something like 10 or 15% off. However, if you live in a place where complaints run awry, you'll probably get everything free or have to come up with very little, regardless of your warranty or ownership. I live in Kansas City, and they offered me 15%. You can assume what my response was.

You just have to try different dealerships, I went to about 3 different ones before one of them said they would do it for free.

That would be too much to ask for, for Breanne to answer!

And that right there is a complete joke to me. It either is backed up by GM or not. Who cares if you are in bum f#ck Egypt???????
