Consumer Description

DASHBOARDS ON THE MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE MODEL YEARS 2000-2005 HAVE A TENDENCY TO CRACK AS THEY ARE MADE OF PLASTIC. NO FORCE IS APPLIED THAT MAKES THEM CRACK, SIMPLY HEAT FROM THE SUN OR COLD TEMPERATURES. MY DASHBOARD AND MANY THOUSAND OTHERS HAVE SEVERAL CRACKS AND THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED BY MITSUBISHI *NM
