Description of the problem	I could not get past the enter 'failed component' requirement so i had to chose air bags because it is the closest component related to the dash area i could find. I am one of the thousands of people who owns a dodge truck with a severely cracking dash. I realize that this may not seem to be a 'safety' issue, but believe me, when you have a dash that is cracked into pieces with numerous sharp edges it should be. I would never let any child be in my truck unsupervised because this dash is so bad i truly believe an injury could result from contact with the sharp edges. I realize dodge would be out an incredible amount of money to recall this problem, and i've also been told they are still selling the same bad plastic dashes as replacements, but something should be done. At least they could offer a new dash made from different material at a much more affordable cost. Please find a way to help those of us who are trying to cope with this problem... Thank you for your time.
