Speaking of the dash, anyone heard anything about the dash bubble issue?

Blues45th · 11-26-2012, 11:12 AM

Ugh no more issues please. I mean wtf. Issue this issue that. Gm is sorry. Enough . Give us what we paid for a nice quality bad ass ride from a semi American company ( built in Canada ) lol. Please Brandon tell us as frustrated owners what can we do. Seems always has to get to third try to get it right and that means three times early to dealer or leave car or without car. Come on. We love our cars but the issues from radio to engine to this torque converter which makes me shiver every time I hear those words. I'm on my second one I have 9100 miles. Really. The guy who installed my trim peice is gonna have to explain how you slap a piece on not aligned not in place and then walk away from the job feeling good. So the stich is replaced now the running plastic peice is half off and the leather peice which stiching is on is replaced but not all flush with dash. Please Brandon explain. Explain to all of us what's going on. If I have a stich which broke in dash on part I don't even touch what about the rest. And the quality of work. I mean really

I'm at my dealer now. Dimmitt Chevy has always been good with me and finding out with gm. So with that said showed the my leather trim that's replaced. Seems like the fold where they stitched is thicker in a certain part and that made it not flush and with top plastic peice not flush. It can't the leather is thicker and doesn't fit right. Here we go. Do I get mad a gm for sending bad part or my dealer for installing it. Or both. Brandon what you got for me. Waiting to hear what they say about that and my steering wheel not aligned with tires right ad goes straight but steering wheel is to the left more lol.

They replaced mine for free at my dealer. My replacement dash has held up fine so far.

You already had it in your 45th. Is this all dash boards. My car was built 8/3/11. I'm at dealer now should I have them look at it. I haven't noticed anything.

If there's no bubble in the leather above the radio you're fine.

Just remember that for every 'issue' you hear of, there are 20 'no-issues' behind it.

I took mine in to ask about the bubble, and my service adviser couldn't even see it, I had to point it out. He recommended to me to not replace it because they would have to replace the entire dash. He said if it was his car he wouldn't do it...

Suggestions, thoughts?

Blues45th · 11-26-2012, 04:50 PM

Ordering new trim for problem on dash. Realigned again and it's on. And for the USB thing. No comment. Wanna give them a chance to explain the hand written note from my mechanic in my passenger seat. My service rep is gonna speak to him tomorrow. Sort of disappointed he didn't just come out and speak to me while I waited in the service area. I have them props in the pdmi thread. But some issues still I have questions on. The note was to the forum lol

They dont have to take out the whole dash. I took the big side off of a car to paint the ac-vent trim, it took like 15 mins to do it myself.

Blues45th · 11-26-2012, 05:47 PM

He has the huge bump in dash. Not the trim lol. That would be a good one. We need to remove the dash for piece of trim Lol
