Consumer Description

I NOTICED A SLIGHT LINE IN THE DASH SOMETIME IN 2009, NEXT TO THE WINDSHIELD AND ABOUT 5 OR 6 INCHES FROM THE PASSENGER DOOR. I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS A SURFACE SCRATCH. LATER ON, IT GOT LONGER AND LONGER, BECOMING NOTICEABLE AS A CRACK, UNTIL NOW IT IS ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE DASH AND TO THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT, COMING AT AN ANGLE TOWARDS THE MIDDLE OF THE TRUCK. ABOUT A YEAR AFTER I NOTICED THAT THE CRACK HAD GOTTEN LONGER, PERHAPS 1/2 WAY ACROSS THE DASHBOARD, I WAS HIT IN THE BACK END BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. ABOUT 7 MONTHS AFTER THAT, THE CRACK ELONGATED TO IT'S FULL LENGTH ACROSS THE DASH FROM THE WINDSHIELD TO THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT. I AM WORRIED THAT THE DASH WILL FALL IN. *TR
