2001 DODGE RAM QUAD CAB Structure Problems

BOUGHT A 2001 DODGE QUAD CAB SPORT 4X4 IN 2003. THE DASH HAD A SMALL CRACK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AT TIME OF PURCHASE. THE CRACK SPREAD RAPIDLY TO ALL AREAS OF THE DASHBOARD. I USED PROTECTANTS, ADHESIVES AND DASHBOARD SHADES AND A DASH PAD TO PREVENT FURTHER SPREAD TO NO AVAIL. DURING ONE EVENING TRIP,I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD AND THE ENTIRE DASH CAVED IN CAUSING THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER TO LOSE LIGHTING. I HAD TO COLLECT ALL THE EXTREMELY SHARP SHARDS OF PLASTIC OUT OF THE DASHBOARD RECESS TO LOOK FOR THE PROBLEM. IT WAS DURING THIS INCIDENT THAT A EXTREMELY SHARP PIECE OF PLASTIC CUT DEEP INTO MY RIGHT HAND. I SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN STITCHES, BUT USED GAUZE AND WRAP UNTIL HEALED. WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED WITH LOOSE PLASTIC PARTS FLYING ALL OVER THE PLACE? SURVIVE THE CRASH AND THEN DIE...

IN TRAFFIC GOING DOWN THE ROAD AT 65 MPH, THE DASHBOARD CAVED IN. LOOSE PIECES EVERYWHERE. I DIDN'T KNOW IF THIS HAD AFFECTED THE ELECTRONICS OR NOT AT THE TIME. I JUST HAD TO PULL OVER AND CUT THROUGH THREE LANES OF TRAFFIC. LUCKILY SO FAR, JUST SOME MINOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS HERE AND THERE. I AM SCARED THIS WILL AFFECT THE AIRBAG SYSTEM LATER ON. DODGE SAYS THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS. VERY UNFORTUNATE, LAST DODGE I WILL EVER OWN. *TR

DRIVING ON PUBLIC STREETS HIS A SMALL POT HOLE, THE DASHBOARD BROKE AND THE BEZEL FELL OFF CAUSING A DRIVING HAZARD. *TR

DASH BOARD HAS MULTIPLE CRACKS AND HAS SUNKEN IN. *TR

AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF DASH CRACKING, THE DASH CAP FINALLY GAVE UP AFTER HITTING SMALL BUMP ON THE ROAD. SEVERAL PIECES HIT PASSENGERS FACE. NOTHING SERIOUS HAPPENED BUT ENOUGH TO CONCLUDE THAT IT POSSES A SAFETY THREAD AND DASH BOARD SHOULD BE REPLACED BY DODGE. *TR

WENT OUT TO USE MY TRUCK THIS AFTERNOON, AND NOTICED MY DASHBOARD HAD TWO LARGE CRACKS COMPLETELY THROUGH THE PLASTIC, THE CRACKS GO FROM THE WINDSHIELD AND WRAP ALL THE AROUND TO THE GLOVE BOX. EACH CRACK IS ON EITHER END OF THE GLOVE BOX... *TR

DASHBOARD CRACKIN I KNOW OTHER 01 RAMS DOING THE SAME THING THIS IS SAFETY CONCERN AS COULD PREMATURELY DEPLOY AIRBAGS...DODGE NEEDS TO RECALLS THIS ISSUE. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IN OUR 2001 DODGE RAM TRUCK HAS A HUGE CRACK IN IT. IT HAS BEEN THERE FOR SEVERAL YEARS. THERE HAS BEEN NOTHING DONE THUS FAR TO REPAIR THIS. *TR

MY 2001 DODGE RAM QUAD CAB 1500 4X4 HAS ENTIRE DASHBOARD CRACKING UP AND FALLING INTO THE INSTRUMENT AREA UNDER THE DASH. THIS IS EXPOSING THE LIGHT SENSORS, AIR BAG CONTROLS AND OTHER SAFETY FEATURES TO HARMFUL SUN EXPOSURE. I SEE THAT SEVERAL THOUSAND COSTUMERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM AND NEITHER THE COMPANY OR THE GOVERNMENT ARE DOING ANYTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR

THE DASH IN MY 2001 DODGE RAM 2500 DIESEL HAS CRACKED IN MANY PLACES. I ALWAYS HAVE USED A WINDSHIELD VISOR. *TR

I HAVE A 2001 DODGE RAM 1500 EXT CAB THAT I BOUGHT NEW FROM THE DEALERSHIP. AT 42,000MI THE DASH HAD A CRACK IN THE CENTER. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY SAID IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND TO USE SOMETHING WITH UV PROTECTION. AT 101,000MI THE FRONT SPEAKERS WENT OUT. NOW MY DASH IS MISSING BIG PIECES. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD LAST MONTH AND HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD. A PIECE OF DASH FLEW UP AND HIT MY WIFE IN THE FOREHEAD. SHE WILL NO LONGER LET THE GRANDCHILDREN RIDE IN MY TRUCK. SHE IS AFRAID THE AIR BAG WILL GO OFF OR A PIECE OF DASH WILL HIT THEM IN THE EYE. NOW THE FRONT LIGHTS HAVE BLINKED ON AND OFF 2 OR 3 TIMES ON SEPARATE OCCASION. I'VE CALLED DODGE AND THEY SENT ME TO A SERVICE CENTER. THEY AGREED...

THE DASH ON MY 2001 DODGE IS FALLING APART LEAVING SHARP JAGGED EDGES THAT MY CHILDREN COULD BE CUT BY. SO FAR DODGE IS NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT TO MY KNOWLEDGE, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. *TR

ENTIRE DASH IS FALLING TO PIECES. CRACKS EVERYWHERE. ONLY 50K MILES. *TR

DASHBOARD ON 2001 DODGE RAM CRACKED AND FALLING APART. *TR

2001 DODGE RAM WAS INVOLVED IN A 20 MPH ACCIDENT. THE DASH WHICH ALREADY HAD SEVERAL CRACKS BROKE INTO DOZENS OF SHARP FRAGMENTS WHICH WERE FLOWN AROUND THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER. DODGE DEALER ADMITTED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM BUT THE FACTORY HAS REFUSED TO ACCEPT FAULT OR ISSUE A RECALL. *TR

2001 DODGE RAM 1500 NOTICED SEVERAL CRACKS IN THE DASHBOARD IN 2008 BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER, ULTIMATELY THEY COULD REPLACE BUT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. CHRYSLER CORP. AGREED WITH DEALER.NOW THERE ARE MORE I PUT CAULK ON THEM TO KEEP THE DASH FROM EVENTUALLY FROM FALLING IN CREATING ALL KIND OF HAVOC I HAVE READ SOME OF THE HORROR STORIES IN RESULT OF THIS DEFECT OF THE DASHBOARD. *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2001 DODGE RAM 1500 STARTED DEVELOPING CRACKS ABOUT 12 MONTHS AGO. THE CRACKS BEGAN ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AROUND THE AIR BAG AND CONTINUE TO EXTEND IN SEVERAL AREAS TOWARDS THE DRIVERS SIDE. THE DASHBOARD APPEARS TO BE EXTREMELY BRITTLE AND AREAS ARE BEGINNING TO SAG INWARD. COMPONENTS ENCASED WITHIN THE DASH WERE NOT DESIGNED FOR CONSTANT EXPOSURE TO SUNLIGHT THAT WILL RESULT FROM CONTINUED FAILURE OF THE DASHBOARD. THIS CREATES A CONCERN AS TO THE POTENTIAL EXPOSURE OF ELECTRICAL AND AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT COMPONENTS AND THE POSSIBILITY OF THE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT BEING COMPROMISED AS A RESULT OF THE DASH DETERIORATION OR THE POSSIBILITY OF ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTIONS RESULTING FROM WIRING INSULATION BECOMING BRITTLE DUE TO SUN EXPOSURE. *TR

PURCHASED A NEW 2001 DODGE RAM QUAD CAB. DASH AND BEZEL STARTED CRACKING AFTER PURCHASE AND HAS NOW COMPLETELY BUSTED UP. HAVING TO HAVE REPLACED AT THE COST OF $1500 FOR NEW DASH, BEZEL, AND LABOR. *TR

2001 DODGE RAM 1500 PICKUP HAS CRACKED DASHBOARD. STARTED ABOUT 2 YEARS AFTER I BOUGHT THE TRUCK NEW. STILL HAS NEW CRACKS DEVELOPING. SOME CRACKS EXTEND INTO PASSENGER AIRBAG COMPARTMENT AND INTO DRIVER'S INSTRUMENT PANEL. INSTALLED CARPETED DASHBOARD COVER TO HELP PREVENT THE CRACKS FROM PROGRESSING BUT THEY STILL REMAIN TO INCREASE IN SIZE. APPEARS THAT WHENEVER THE A/C OR HEATER IS USED THE CRACKS EXTEND AND CAN BE HEARD AUDIBLE. THE RAPID CHANGE IN INTERIOR TEMPERATURE WHEN USING THE A/C OR HEATER CAN CAUSE THE CRACKS TO QUICKLY EXTEND. HAVE TO SLOWLY INCREASE TEMPERATURE TO REDUCE THE FAILURE RATE. HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING TO PREVENT THE CRACKS BUT NOTHING HELPS. CONCERNED NOW ABOUT THE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT BEING COMPRISED AND LEADING TO PREMATURE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. THE DASHBOARD APPEARS TO VERY BRITTLE AND EVERY PRECAUTION IS USED NOT TO PLACE ANY WEIGHT ON DASHBOARD. OVER THE YEARS, SEVERAL CRACKS HAVE APPEARED AND...

2001 DODGE RAM PICKUP 1. NORMAL USAGE AT 35,000 MILES. 2. CRACKED DASHBOARD MAY CAUSE INJURY/ EXPOSURE TO ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD APPEARS TO BE CAVING IN. 3. DODGE HAS YET TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY AFTER REPEATED COMPLAINTS. *TR

2001 DODGE RAM SPORT CRACKING DASH. *TR

2001 DODGE RAM QUAD CAB SHORT BED PICKUP HAS MYSTERIOUS FAILURE OF THE DASHBOARD. CRACKS EXTEND THROUGHOUT. VERY CONCERNED ABOUT POTENTIAL DANGERS ASSOCIATED WITH A COLLISION AND AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. PIECES OF THE DASHBOARD COULD BECOME DANGEROUS PROJECTILES CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. CRACKS BEGAN IN JULY OF 2005 AND HAVE BECOME SO SEVERE BY 2009 THERE IS NOT MUCH OF THE DASHBOARD LEFT INTACT. *TR

NO INDICATIONS OF FAILURE BEFORE OCCURRENCE, TOP DASH PIECE CRACKED AND BROKE (ESSENTIALLY SHATTERED) ACROSS THE WHOLE DASH ALSO CAUSED THE BEZEL TO CRACK AND BRAKE I HAVE HEARD OF SEVERAL OTHERS WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL THAT HAVE THE SAME TROUBLE. *TR

IN 2004 I PURCHASED A 2001 DODGE RAM QUAD CAB 1500 TRUCK FROM A LOCAL DEALER. THE TRUCK WAS IN GREAT SHAPE. ABOUT 3 YRS. LATER I NOTICED THE DASH STARTING TO CRACK FROM THE DEFROST VENTS OUTWARD. WITH IN A WEEK I HAD LARGE HOLES IN THE MIDDLE OF MY DASH. THE PLASTIC PIECES THAT BROKE OFF FELL DOWN INSIDE. I CONTACTED A LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY KNEW OF THIS PROBLEM BUT BECAUSE IT WAS NOT A RECALL THEY COULDN'T DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. I FEEL FROM BEING A MEDIC FIREFIGHTER THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IF I SHOULD BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG BECOMES DEPLOYED MORE PIECES OF THE DASH CAN BECOME PROJECTILES CAUSING DAMAGE AND BODILY INJURY. *TR

THE DASH ON MY 2001 DODGE RAM 1500 STARTED TO CRACK ABOUT EIGHT MONTHS AGO. IT BEGAN AS A SMALL CRACK NEAR THE DEFROSTER AREA ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND GREW TO ABOUT EIGHT INCHES TOWARD THE FRONT OF THE DASH. A SECOND CRACK BEGAN WITHIN THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS AND ALSO GREW TO ABOUT EIGHT INCHES. THIS TIME MUCH MORE RAPIDLY. I USE MY TRUCK ONLY FOR SHORT TRIPS TO WORK AND BACK AND RARELY TAKE PASSENGERS. NOTHING IS, OR HAS EVER BEEN, STORED ON THE DASH, YET IT CONTINUES TO CRACK. I HAVE READ ABOUT 50 COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME ISSUE FOR THIS MODEL YEAR VEHICLE. I TOO SHARE THE CONCERN THAT CONTINUED CRACKING OF THE DASH WITH PIECES CAVING IN WILL NEGATIVELY IMPACT ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS UNDER THE DASH AND POSSIBLE EVEN PREVENT THE PASSENGERS SIDE AIRBAG FROM PROPERLY DEPLOYING IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. *TR

2001 DODGE RAM PICKUP DASH BOARD CRACKED AND FELL APART EXPOSING SHARP PLASTIC SHARDS TO DIVER AND PASSENGER. *TR

2001 DODGE QUAD 3/4 TON V10 - DASH CRACKED IN ONE PLACE ON PASSENGER SIDE - LATER DASH CAVED IN LEAVING HUGE HOLE. WE PURCHASED A DASH CAP AT THE COST OF $130.00 TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AS WE COULD NOT DRIVE AROUND WITH A BIG HOLE IN THE DASH RIGHT ABOVE A/C VENTS. *TR

2001 DODGE RAM 1500 PICK-UP DASH IS ALMOST COMPLETLY COLLAPSED/BROKEN. *TR

DASH ON 2001 DODGE QUAD CAB HAS BEEN CRACKING FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS EVEN INTO AIR BAG DEPARTMENT, DODGE COMPANY SAYS THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DASH, I THINK ITS IS TIME DODGE STEPS IN BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILL THERE ARE ENOUGH COMPLAINTS THE NATIONAL SAFETY BOARD STEPS IN AND INVESTIGATE AS TO WHAT WENT WRONG. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKING STARTING AT THE DEFROSTER VENT AND CONTINUING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE TO THE AIR BAG COMPARTMENT. ONLY 60,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED. DEALER CLAIMS THERE IS NO REMEDY WITH DODGE AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY TO INSTALL NEW DASHBOARD. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD IF THE AIR BAG WERE TO DEPLOY AS SHAPE PIECES OF LOOSE PLASTIC HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO HARM PASSENGERS. *TR

DASH BOARD CRACKED AND FELL APART. *TR

EXCESSIVE DASH BOARD CRACKING!! IN A MONTHS TIME 2 LARGE CRACKS HAVE APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THAT CRASH SAFETY MAY BE COMPROMISED. *TR

MY 2001 DODGE RAM 1500 4X4 DASH HAS COMPLETELY CRACKED TO PIECES. IT STARTED OUT AS JUST TWO CRACKS. NOW HUNKS OF THE DASH ARE FALLING OUT, ABOUT 8 MONTHS LATER. IT JUST CONTINUES TO GET WORSE. *TR

CRACKED DASH-WE PURCHASED OUR 2001 DODGE RAM 1500 4X4 QUAD CAB USED IN OCT 2003 WITH LESS THAN 46,000 MILES ON ODOMETER. WHEN WE PURCHASED THE TRUCK THE CUP HOLDER WAS NOT CLOSING PROPERLY AND WE ASKED THE DEALERSHIP TO ADJUST IT. THEY DID BUT IT STILL DID NOT CLOSE PROPERLY OR HANG PROPERLY AND WAS NOT USABLE AS IS. CUP HOLDER FELL COMPLETELY OFF WITHIN ABOUT 3 MONTHS ALTHOUGH WE COULDN'T USE IT MUCH. OUR DASH BEGAN TO CRACK WITHIN THE SAME TIME OF PURCHASING THE TRUCK AND NOW THE BEZEL IS CRACKED SO BADLY IS IT FALLING IN. WE ARE LOOKING INTO PURCHASING A BEZEL NOW BECAUSE IT IS JUST SO BAD NOW. WHEN THE TRUCK WAS PURCHASED THE DASH HAD A RATTLING THAT WE COULDN'T FIGURE OUT, IT IS OBVIOUSLY THE BAD DASH BEZEL DESIGN. WE DID PURCHASE A NEW CUP HOLDER WHEN FIXING IT DIDN'T WORK...

CRACKED DASH. DASH HAS CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES WITH SOME CRACKS RUNNING FROM FRONT TO BACK, CRACKING CRACK TO CRACK, AND EXPOSING UNDERSURFACE. DEALER INDICATED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND WANTS TO CHARGE IN EXCESS OF $1100 TO REPAIR. INTERNET COMPLAINTS MAKE THIS APPEAR TO BE A FACTORY KNOWN DEFECT THAT HAS OCCURRED VERY OFTEN WITH SAFETY CONCERNS. *TR

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2001 DODGE QUAD CAB DASHBOARD IS ALMOST COMPLETELY GONE FROM CRACKING. HAD A PIECE COME OFF AS I WAS DRIVING, AND HIT ME IN THE EYE WHILE WINDOWS WERE OPEN..CALLED D/C ONCE, NO RESPONSE..CALLED TODAY, AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD LOOK AT IT FOR ME..REPORT FROM LOCAL TV SHOWED THIS TO BE A MAJOR PROBLEM. THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS ARE FAILED. *AK

ON GOING PROBLEM WITH OUR 2001 DODGE TRUCKS COMPLETE FRONT DASH CRACKING AND FALLING IN ON ITSELF. I CONTINUE TO USE AN EPOXY AND SILICON TO TRY TO HOLD IT TOGETHER. DODGE AND THE DEALERSHIP TOLD US IT WAS A COSMETIC PROBLEM. NO WARRANTY *TR

I OWN A 2001 DODGE RAM PICK UP. APPROXIMATELY 2 YEARS AGO WE DISCOVERED THAT THE DASHBOARD HAD CRACKED IN NUMEROUS PLACES. WE HAD IT REPLACED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. WE HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THE REPLACED DASHBOARD IS AGAIN CRACKING. I FEEL THAT THESE PARTICULAR MODELS ARE DEFECTIVE AND I WOULD LIKE FOR THE DASHBOARD TO BE EXCHANGED AGAIN WITHOUT COST TO ME AS A CONSUMER. I DO NOT WANT THIS DASHBOARD CAVING IN LIKE OTHERS THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. I DEARLY LOVE MY TRUCK AND IT'S A SHAME THAT AN ITEM SUCH AS THIS COULD DECIDE WHETHER I BUY FROM DODGE IN THE FUTURE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION OF THIS REQUEST. *TR

THIS COMPLAINT CONCERNS THE DISINTEGRATION OF THE DASHBOARD ON THE 2001 DODGE RAM PICKUP. MY TRUCK WAS ONLY 4 YRS OLD WHEN IT STARTED CRACKING. IT IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE FOR A AUTO MANUFACTURER TO PRODUCE SOMETHING THAT FALLS APART SO QUICKLY AND THEN NOT OFFER TO REPLACE IT. I AM ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE LEFT FRONT SPEAKER, PROBABLY DUE TO THE WIRING BEING DAMAGED WITH THE BREAKAGE. *TR

WE SEEN ON LOCAL 6 WKMG A STORY CONCERNING DASHBOARDS CRACKING ON DODGE RAM TRUCKS. WELL, WE'RE ONE OF THE STATISTICS. WE OWN A 2001 DODGE RAM 2500 QUAD CAB TURBO DIESEL, WITH A CRACKED DASHBOARD, OR SHOULD I SAY MANY CRACKS! THE SPEAKER VOLUME GOES UP AND DOWN WITH EVERY WHIM, NEVER KNOWING WHEN IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. COULD HAPPEN DURING A TURN OR MAYBE GOING OVER A BUMP. ONE OF THE CRACKS HAS INVADED DOWN TO THE LIGHT SWITCH, WHICH MAKES ME VERY NERVOUS WONDERING IF MY LIGHTS MIGHT GO OUT SOME NIGHT WHILE I'M DRIVING. THE INCIDENT DATE FOR US, IS WHEN WE BOUGHT THE TRUCK AS WE BOUGHT IT USED AND IT CONTINUED TO CRACK OVER TIME. *TR

LARGE CRACKS IN DASH OF TRUCK BECOMING A SAFETY HAZARD. PLASTIC DASH AND GAUGE BEZEL CRACKING BADLY. I HAVE NOT FOUND THIS ISSUE ON THE 2000 OR 2002 MODEL. I HAVE ALSO SPOKEN TO OTHER OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE WITH THE SAME YEAR AND CRACKING OF THE DASH, SUSPECT THIS TO BE A DEFECT IN MANUFACTURING. *TR

I HAVE A 2001 DODGE RAM 1500 QUAD CAB, WHICH IS A NICE TRUCK. I STARTED NOTICING A CRACK IN THE DASH ABOUT A YEAR AFTER I GOT IT. SINCE THEN IT HAS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES, WITH PIECES FALLING OUT. I REMOVED THE DASH FROM THE TRUCK AND ENDED UP WITH ABOUT 20 PIECES. DODGE OR THE DEALERSHIP WON'T DO ANYTHING. I WILL HAVE TO PAY 200.00 DOLLARS FOR A NEW DASH IN ORDER TO REPLACE A DEFECTED ONE. *NM
