Consumer Description

I HAD NOTICED A CRACK IN MY DASH ONE DAY AFTER WORK AND NOW THERE ARE SEVERAL. THE ONE THAT CONCERNS ME MOST, IS THE ONE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OVER THE AIR BAG COMPARTMENT. I KEEP MY VEHICLE IN VERY GOOD SHAPE SO THIS PROBLEM IS NOT DUE TO NEGLECT. THE MATERIAL USED JUST SEEMS TO BE VERY BRITTLE AND I AM AFRAID IF ANYTHING WAS TO HAPPEN CAUSING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG TO DEPLOY, WHAT IS THE BRITTLE DASH PIECES ARE GOING TO DUE TO MY PASSENGER. I DO BELIEVE THIS COULD LEAD TO A SERIOUS INJURY TO SOMEONE'S FACE OR EYES. AS OF NOW CHRYSLER SEEMS TO BE SAYING THAT THIS IS NOT A MANUFACTURES PROBLEM, I DISAGREE, I ALSO OWN A 97' DODGE RAM TRUCK THAT DOES NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. CURRENT VEHICLE IS A 02' RAM 1500. *TR
