Our 2010 GMC Yukon recently developed a crack in the dashboard near the passenger side airbag. We are concerned for the safety of those passengers riding in the front passenger seat. If the airbags were to deploy, hard plastic dash material could injury passengers. This is a safety hazard that gm does not seem to want to address. We purchased this vehicle new, which has been garaged its entire service life. Air bags · reported at 79,810 miles
