  I have 5 GMC vehicles 2007 yukon 2010 denali truck and 2011 yukon denali SUV all have cracked dashes. I replaced one, but realized its obviously a manufacturer issue. I am concerned I could cause an issue with the airbag. The rattling has caused issues with my onstar and radio. I have a 2001 1500 with no dash issues and a 2001 savanah with no issues.

  Rear drivers side brake line began leaking just in front of the rear wheel causing the rear brakes to fail and shifting to the front wheel brakes only which enabled me to drive it slowly to a gm repair shop. seems like a vehicle with just 17,559 miles on it should not be experiencing a failed brake line. repair cost was $443.62 with the gm shop stating that the gas tank had to be removed to fix the leak. service writer claims the brake line was contacting other body parts which caused the failure. *tr
