Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2000 DODGE RAM 2500 WITH APPROX. 58K MILES. THE DASH BOARD DEVELOPED A COUPLE CRACKS A FEW YEARS INTO OWNERSHIP. AT THIS POINT THE DASH IS LITERALLY FALLING TO PIECES. LARGE HOLES HAVE DEVELOPED EXPOSING WIRES AND VERY SHARP EDGES. PIECES WILL SIMPLE BREAK OFF WITHOUT EVER TOUCHING THE DASH. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I FEEL IT IS UNSAFE TO HAVE ALL THE EXPOSED WIRING. I WOULD REPLACE THE DASH HOWEVER I AM TOLD IT WILL DO IT AGAIN AS CHRYSLER HAS NOT CORRECTED THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF THE DASH OR THAT THE NEW DASH I WOULD GET WOULD BE OLD STOCK OF THE SAME MATERIAL. *TR
