Angry '08 cracked dash!!!!!!

My wifes dash has 2 cracks around the passenger side airbag! Anyone else have this issue? It has 67xxx miles, so no warranty.....and no, it's never had armour-all or anything of the like on it. Any thoughts? I'm kinda pissed that this happened so soon.

I have an 08 Avalanche with 65K on it and I also have the GM Genuine Major Guard warranty and I went to the store this morning and noticed up by the instrument panel hump I have a crack about 5 inches in it and I just had this truck in the shop 3 weeks ago because they had to replace some computer as it always was telling me I had low tires. Now my seat belt warning light comes on but no longer dings in the truck like it use to and I have this crack. Does anyone know if my GM Genuine Advantage Major Guard warranty will cover these things? This Avalanche is my 2nd one and this one here has been in the shop over so many safety problems and outside trim problems and also the interior seat belts and the interior seat belt trim tore up because of a defect in the mounting of the seat belt and also the childrens safety belt harness broke and the dealer said they could not fix that and offered me $5000.00 off a new Chevrolet if I bought one within a year, all the power lock assemblies have been replaced, the drivers side seat motor had to be replaced, the steering column is whining loudly when you turn and the dealership said it is a known problem and they have replaced a few columns but said Chevrolet stopped them from replacing them and they felt at this time the column would not lock up or cause danger and if they ever get a fix they would call me. How much more can keep happening before they take care of these things? I have always been a GM man and my father worked for GM but this one has about broke me.
Please someone chime in and help me.

Thank you,
Gregory Agee
