Consumer Description

MY DASHBOARD HAS BEEN DISINTEGRATING RAPIDLY IN THE LAST COUPLE YEARS. STARTED WITH A LARGE CRACK, THEN SEVERAL CRACKS, THEN CHUNKS. I NEVER KNOW WHEN A CHUNK IS GOING TO LET LOOSE, I CHECK EVERY TIME I GET INTO THE TRUCK FOR ANYTHING LOOSE, BUT IT NEVER FAILS TO STARTLE ME AND I EVEN GOT PULLED OVER ONCE ON A SUSPECTED DUI WHEN A CHUNK FLEW OFF AND HIT ME BETWEEN THE EYES. THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES TO BOTH ME AND ANY PASSENGER I MIGHT BE TRANSPORTING. CHRYSLER SAYS ITS A COSMETIC ISSUE, BUT I AM HERE TO TELL YOU THAT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE NOT ONLY FOR THE TRUCK OWNER,BUT ANYONE ELSE WHO HAPPENS TO BE ON THE ROAD WITH ONE. PLEASE LEAN ON CHRYSLER TO RECALL THIS AND MAKE THE ROADS A BIT SAFER FOR ALL. THANK YOU *TR
