Description of the problem | Cracked chevrolet dash flaps when windows rolled down creating visible distraction very similar to attached picture chevrolet knows this is an ongoing issue for their 2007-2014 models and apparently won't do anything unless compelled to by a regulatory body. If i get into an accident i will make sure to advise of what caused the distraction. This is not only an eyesore but it is also incredibly dangerous. Who makes new vehicles with all the emissions standards and then skimps on the dash? This is such a problem there is a facebook group with 6,825 members and you can do find it by searching.
