Just noticed mine is cracked from the air bag corner forward. It is just starting. Bummer.

Gonna try some wicking acrylic cement on it.

I know, I know…
Yep. I fixed the cracks in one with a hot stapler. Hours and hours of work pulling the dash, welding the cracks together, installing the dash. Lasted about a week and 2 new cracks appeared next to the other ones.

I'm just hoping it slows down. Can't attack it until spring anyway.

915_Tahoe says mine is PN 23224742 but GM Parts Direct says it doesn’t fit. However I do have the LTZ package.

@Rocket Man
Does the steering column have to come out? It looks like it can be left in...

From what I've seen, some are able to leave it and just adjust the wheel and shift lever all the way down. Others drop the column to the seat to make more room.

I’ve been thinking about frankenstitches if it starts bugging me more.
I’m in the process of swapping them out. Everything lines up just like the old one. My old one (remember, it was from a 2008 Tahoe donor truck) has a label with p/n 15915972 and if I look it up it’s been replaced by 19331336. So I would say definitively the 19331336 and 23224747 are interchangeable. @George B i just had to remove the (4) 15 mm bolts that hold the column and let it hang down a bit.
Weird thing I noticed was the area around the driver side crack at the instrument cluster hump, on the back side, is all discolored right around the crack. Not sure if this happened because of the crack or is the cause of the crack. It has only been cracked a few weeks though. Ok enough crack talk. It’s hot outside now so I’ll finish this tomorrow morning.

Well, I used some acrylic cement on that crack. It caused the softer layer of the texture to lift like paint stripper would do to paint. It also bit really hard into the plastic base of the dash. I can see the crack still but it appears to be “melted” together.
l am still realistic about this and expect to be replacing the dash at some point. I will grab a pic later.

Here is what I have now. I added a bit of black interior paint to it as well. Going to scotchbrite a bit after more cure time.

Maybe it will at least stop any rattles.

@Rocket Man it cracked again already…
I will be spending no more than zero hours screwing with that.

In thecopcar, I used the airbag corner crack to my advantage to route cables to some dash accessories.

Great idea.
That looks like factory.
