Consumer Description

MY DODGE RAM 1500'S DASHBOARD IS COMPLETELY FALLING APART. IT STARTED 5 YEARS AGO AND HAS ACCELERATED OVER THE PAST THREE, NO MATTER HOW PROTECTED THE DASH BOARD IS FROM THE SUN. IT HAS MULTIPLE CRACKS WHICH ARE CAUSING THE DASH BOARD TO COLLAPSE AND BECOME LOSE AND IS BECOMING A SAFETY HAZARD AS WELL AS VERY UNAPPEALING. I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK NEW AND HAVE TAKEN EXCESSIVELY GOOD CARE OF IT. THERE IS NO REASON THAT THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED DUE TO MY ACTIONS. IT IS A QUALITY OF MANUFACTURE AND MATERIALS. *TR
