MY 2013 YUKON XL DENALI HAS DEVELOPED CRACK ON THE DASHBOARD. IT IS LOCATED TO THE RIGHT OF THE HUMP OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CRACK STARTED AS A HALF INCH HAIR LINE CRACK ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO AND HAS NOW TURNED INTO A EIGHT INCH LONG CRACK. SEEMS TO KEEP GROWING. I HAVE ABOUT 44,398 MILES AND THE VEHICLE. IT IS WELL MAINTAINED AND CARED FOR. NO ABUSE OR OFF ROAD DRIVING. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAITING TO HEAR BACK. IN MY WORLD THIS IS STILL A NEW VEHICLE AND AT A COST OF $60K THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. *TR
