Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 EXTENDED CAB AND THE HOOD UNEXPECTEDLY FLEW UP GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND SMASHED MY WINDOW AND THE HOOD IS DESTROYED. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME, VERY VERY DANGEROUS, FOR ME AND THE DRIVERS BEHIND ME. THE GRILL FLEW OFF AND POSSIBLY DAMAGED THE CARS BEHIND AND NEXT TO ME. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS A COUPLE YEARS AGO AND I WAS VERY LUCKY IT WAS NOT A BUSY ROAD AND I WAS ONLY GOING ABUT 35-45 MPH. TO CORRECT IT I HAD TO BUY A NEW HOOD,GRILL AND ALL PARTS PERTAINING TO THE HOOD REPLACEMENT....OH ALSO A NEW WINDSHIELD. THANKS DODGE! *TR
