Consumer Description

I BOUGHT A USED 2001 DODGE RAM 1500 EXT. CAB 1/2 TON PICK-UP TRUCK IN DECEMBER OF 2008 AND MY DASH BOARDS HAD NO CRACKS IN IT AT THAT TIME ,BUT MY DASH BOARD IS NOW CRACKING AND COLLAPSING. AS FAR AS I KNOW DODGE DOES NOT HAVE A RECALL AT THIS TIME. BUT THERE IS ALOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE DASH BOARDS CRACKING AND COLLAPSING ONTO THE ELECTRICAL WIRING CAUSING SHORTS. FROM EITHER EXPOSURE TO SUN LIGHT OR THE PARTS OF THE DASH BOARDS FALLING ONTO THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS IS CAUSING PROBLEMS DUE TO INFERIOR PRODUCTS BEING USED TO MAKE THE DASH BOARDS. IS THERE ANYWAY TO MAKE DODGE FIX THIS PROBLEM? *TR
