Dash is cracked near passenger side air bag, if deployment were to happen shrapnel will fly throughout the cab. Ive seen the same issue on numerous other vehicles of the same generation.
Well i keep driving my truck. And my airbag light is on. So there for if i get hit they not going to come out and protect me. And i'm having bad issues with my ball joints. On my 2012 gmc 2500 hd. I've put 2 sets on them. And i've only had it a year. You gotta do something about that.
A multi-car collision had occurred at a considerable speed. (sadly a driver had lost a life in this accident)this collision entailed a very large commercial truck being hit head on, by a vehicle traveling in the opposite direction.( this 2nd vehicle being a van) after this severe impact with the large commercial vehicle, (which created heavy damage to this vehicle, removing the front axle) the van proceeded being ricochet off the large commercial vehicle, around it, back into my oncoming lane. This resulted in a frontal driver impact head on with the out of control van. Upon impact, the driver's side air bag of my vehicle partially inflated, then rapidly deflated. Thus the airbag never fully employed,leaving me no protection whatsoever. I am enduring many issues due to this malfunction, and wish this matter to be looked into further, to protect anyone else from having to deal with issues like myself...updated 10/07/14
The contact owns a 2012 gmc sierra 2500. The contact stated that while driving approximately 45 mph, the air bag warning indicator illuminated continuously. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who replaced the front passenger's side air bag module. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 57,000.
1 day got in truck and noticed the dash was cracked on driver side behind the gauge cluster and as i looked i noticed it was also cracked at the 2 upper corners of the passenger air bag. The truck only has 25000 mile on it. Gm will not pay to have it fixed and i'm worried that it can affect the safety of the air bags

The contact owns a 2012 gmc sierra 2500. When using the snow plow, the headlights dimmed and the heat decreased as if it were turned off. The contact mentioned that the volts decreased when using the plow, which may have caused the failure. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but the cause of the failure could not be diagnosed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and sent an investigator to diagnose the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The vin was not available. The failure mileage was 18,500.
While traveling on the interstate at speed and passing slower traffic; engine power fell off, change fuel filter now, engine derate, and check engine lite, occured. I had to maneuver with no power through the traffic to get out of the travel lanes. I was then stranded on the interstate as the truck would not start. I was able to get a mechanic to come and change the fuel filter on the side of the highway, but the truck would not start. The truck was eventually towed to a shop where it was diagnosed with a catastrophic failure of the fuel pump (diesel motor driven pump).
Emissions failure. Nox sensor, def system. Driving, display states, poor def quality. Took in for repair, still def quality. Truck has slowed to 55mph, will slow to 4 mph in 39 miles. They are trowing parts at it at my expense. Can't properly diagnose. This problem is from 2010- current models of these diesels.

Driving east bound on i70 coming into denver.truck shut off with no warning at 80mph on steep downhill grade causing loss of all power facilities in the truck.no brakes, no power steering.i endangered the lives of every single person on the road thanks to this failed fuel pump.further investigation shows bosch (the pump manufacturer) had instructed gm to use a lift pump on this item and they have disregarded that recommendation leaving people in danger of serious injury or death.this item needs a recall and gm is refusing to do so because this occurrence renders the truck in need of 13k+ i'm repairs.shame on gm and shame on nhtsa for not doing their job.
Fuel filter housing contains a primer pump. Needed for a diesel. Seals within that pump failed allowing air into the system.vehicle is 8 years old and only has 67k miles on it.this caused the motor to quit while in motion. In yellowstone park.

I purchased a new gmc sierra hd2500 sle in june, it came with 20" alloy wheels and goodyear wrangler sra tires (lt265-60r20), load range e. Within 3 days, i had a sidewall puncture on one tire while driving on our ranch. The tire had to be replaced. Now, just yesterday, sep. 15, i had another sidewall puncture while driving on the ranch. I just left the local discount tire, where they are waiting for a new tire to arrive so they can replace the old tire. I've been living on this ranch for 47 years now, and have owned at least 10 trucks and 2 suburbans over the years. There is a 3.5 mile loop road that runs around the ranch, and i drive it regularly. These two flats are the only two i've ever experienced in driving this loop road, which is a combination of caliche and limestone. The road is not great, but it's not terrible either; and i find it very odd to have two failures within 4 months. (total mileage on the truck is now 9250.) i'm thinking it's entirely possible that these wranglers have a weaker than normal sidewall; the worker at discount tire told me that my "normal" truck tire, a goodrich dueler at, did in fact have an additional sidewall layer compared to the goodyear. In any respect, i'm calling this to your attention in case there actually is some manufacturing defect that i should know about. I would appreciate hearing your thoughts on this issue.
