1999 DODGE QUAD — Problems, Recalls & Safety Data

THIS IS A NECESSITY THAT DODGE NEEDS TO RECALL AND REIMBURSE PEOPLE FOR THEIR LOSES! I PERSONALLY SENT A LETTER TO THE DODGE CORPORATION TELLING THEM OF THIS DANGEROUS PRODUCT! THEIR ANSWER! SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS! THE DASH BOARDS OF THE LATE MODEL 90'S AND EARLY 2000 TRUCKS MADE BY DODGE WERE BUILT WITH CHEAPLY MADE MATERIAL. YOU COULD ARMORAL OR WHATEVER CLEANER AND PRESERVER YOU WANT AND THE DASH WOULD STILL FALL APART. THE MATERIAL FROM THE DASH AND DUCTS WILL FALL ON THE HEATER ELEMENT AND CATCH THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE ON FIRE THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE BURNS VERY QUICKLY POSING A SERIOUS DANGER AND TO THE PASSENGERS, OTHER VEHICLES, PEOPLE AROUND IT ONCE IT CATCHES FIRE AND SPREADS BRAKE LINES BURN INTO AND CAUSES IT TO ROLL, MINE ROLLED WITHIN INCHES OF A BRAND NEW BMW. I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS IS A URGENT RECALL TO SAVE LIVES. BEING A MECHANIC MYSELF THIS VEHICLE WAS POORLY MADE AND I HAVE OWNED IT SINCE FEBRUARY OF 2000 THE TRUCK LOOKED BRAND NEW THE DAY IT BURNED AND WAS A TOTAL LOSS! THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIMES AND EFFORTS! I HAVE PICTURES OF THE TRUCK BURNING AND THE WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE WHEN DONE! I WAS DISGUSTED! *TR UPDATED 3/3/15 *JS

CUT MY SELF REMOVING PIECES THE GOV SHOULD MAKE DODGE REPLACE THESE DASHES AT NO COST TO US. I HAVE A BAD HEATER CORE AND NO ONE WILL CHANGE IT BECAUSE OF THE DASH NEEDS TO BE REMOVED AND ITS SO BROKEN THEY CAN'T REMOVE IT WITHOUT REPLACING IT. AT A COST OF A $1000.00 PLUS THE COST OF THE HEATER CORE R&R . I HAD TO GET A COVER FOR MY DASH SO I COULD REATTACHED THE VIN CODE. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. I FIGURE I WILL HIT A BUMP ONE DAY AND THE WHOLE THING WILL FALL!!! *TR

VEHICLE PURCHASED NEW. FILING COMPLAINT REGARDING NUMEROUS CRACKS IN DASHBOARD. CHUNKS OF DASH BREAKING OFF. INFORMED BY TV AD STATING THAT THIS IS ON-GOING PROBLEM WITH DODGE PICKUPS.

THEY INDICATED THAT THIS IS AN ON-GOING PROBLEM BUT THERE IS NOTHING THEY ARE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT. *TR
