Consumer Description

THE DASH STARTED CRACKING ON MY 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 IN MID 2005. IT WAS NEVER PARKED IN THE SUN, SO I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHY IT WAS CRACKING. I POINTED IT OUT WHEN I TOOK MY TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD COST $1400 TO REPLACE. I COULDN'T AFFORD THAT SO JUST HOPED FOR THE BEST. THE CRACKS CONTINUED TO SPREAD, AND THEN EARLIER THIS YEAR THE WHOLE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE DASH CAVED IN. THERE IS A HUGE HOLE WHERE THE DASH USED TO BE. I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS A CHRONIC PROBLEM WITH THIS PARTICULAR TRUCK UNTIL I FOUND THIS WEBSITE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THERE IS NOW EXPOSED WIRING WHERE THE DASH USED TO BE. DODGE SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE AND FIX THIS. *TR
