Consumer Description

I BOUGHT MY 2001 DODGE RAM 1500 NOV 2004, EVERYTHING ON MY DASH WAS FINE. I WENT ON A DETACHMENT FOR TWO WEEKS AND WHEN I GOT BACK I NOTICED A SMALL CRACK IN THE MIDDLE OF MY DASH. I WENT TO THE DODGE DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO. SO I STARTED LOOKING FOR A NEW ONE AND NO ONE SOLD IT ONLINE EXCEPT FOR IN THE JUNKYARDS WHICH MOST OF THEM WERE WORSE THEN MINE. I WENT ON CRUISE AT THE END OF 2005. MY FATHER HAD MY TRUCK WHILE I WAS GONE. WHEN I HAD RETURNED NOT ONLY DID THE CRACK GET BIGGER BUT A HOLE GREW RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF MY DASH. MY DASH IS IN TWO PIECES NOW AND IS A HAZARD TO MY CHILD AND MYSELF. I CAN'T TURN MY AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IN FEAR THAT IT WILL KILL MY PASSENGERS IF I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. *TR
