Consumer Description

AFTER READING THIS LINK: HTTP://WWW.LOCAL6.COM/NEWS/13227601/DETAIL. HTML I REALIZED THAT I WAS NOT ALONE IN DEALING WITH PROBLEMS WITH THE DASHBOARD. AT 11:45 AM MAY 15, 2007, I CONTACTED DAIMLER-CHRYSLER'S CONSUMER LINE. I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY A DODGE DEALERSHIP BETWEEN $50 AND $60 JUST TO HAVE MY DASH LOOKED AT, AND THEN IF A DEFECT OF MATERIALS WAS DETERMINED, DAIMLER-CHRYSLER WOULD OFFER ASSISTANCE IN HAVING THE DASH REPLACED. IF THERE WAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, I FEEL IT SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANUFACTURER TO CORRECT ANY SUCH DEFECTS. AS OF RIGHT NOW, I PERSONALLY HAVE YET TO EXPERIENCE ANY SAFETY ISSUES REGARDING THIS PROBLEM. BUT AFTER READING THE ARTICLE I LINKED EARLIER, IT HAS BECOME A CONCERN.*AK
