Consumer Description

MY DODGE TRUCK 1998 RAM 1500 DASHBOARD IS CRACKING AND HAS BEEN FOR SEVERAL YEARS. THE CRACKS NOW ARE MOVING TOWARD THE PANEL OF INSTRUMENTS AND THE CRACKS ARE COMING TOGETHER TO MAKE HOLES I CAN NOT GET THE EVAPORATOR FOR MY AIR CONDITIONER FIXED DUE TO THE FAULTY DASH. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND STATED THAT THERE IS NO RECALL AND WOULD NOT REPAIR DASH. I WENT ONLINE AND THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEMS WITH THE RAM 1500 MY TRUCK IS KEPT INSIDE WHEN NOT BEING USED AND IS UP TO DATE ON ALL MAINTENANCE. *TR
