Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2003 DODGE RAM 3500 W/CUMMINS DIESEL. A YEAR AGO (2008) THE DASHBOARD DEVELOPED A SMALL CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD. THINKING THAT IT WAS JUST A STRESS CRACK AND COMES WITH AGE I DID NOT THINK ANYMORE ABOUT IT UNTIL AS OF LATE, THE ENTIRE DASH IS SHATTERING AND COLLAPSING ONTO ITSELF. THIS IS DROPPING SHARDS OF PLASTIC INTO AREAS NOT INTENDED TO HAVE PLASTIC DROPPED INTO IT. I THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS AN ISOLATED CASE UNTIL I STARTED RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH DODGE RAM TRUCKS. DODGE HAS EVIDENTLY REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THEIR QUALITY CONTROL. *TR
