Consumer Description

NOTICED WHILE DRIVING THAT THE RIGHT HAND CORNER OF THE UPPER DASHBOARD PIECE NEXT TO THE WINDOW WAS RATTLING. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION FOUND THAT TWO OF THE ATTACHMENT POST FOR THE PANEL WERE COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM THE UPPER DASH PANEL ON THE UNDER SIDE OF THE PANEL WHICH MATE TO A FRICTION CLAMP UNDER THE PANEL.ALSO NOTICED THAT THE SPEAKER GRILL WAS CRACKED AND COMING APART IN THE SAME AREA. NOTE: THE DASH AREA HAS NEVER BEEN DISTURBED SINCE NEW OR HAS BEEN IN A WRECK OR HAS THE DASH HAD ANY KIND OF IMPACT. PERHAPS IF DODGE HAD PUT MORE EMPHASIS ON QUALITY THAN PROFIT ,THEY WOULD BE IN BETTER SHAPE. *TT
