Description of the problem	I parked my pickup after work one evening went out the next morning and the dash was cracked. It is a 2001 dodge ram 1500 this was in 2004 the next morning i went out for work and the dash was cracked and has since completely caved in. Some electrical components have stopped working. Now i know this is a wide spread complaint but so far is not considered a safety risk. Well why do we have to wait until some one is injured before it is considered a safety risk. Is the wiring going to short out and catch me on fire or is my lights going to be the next thing to go out is the air bag going to deploy properly should i have a wreck, or will it just deploy while i am driving down the road for no reason. I have done nothing to correct the problem because i can not afford to. Defective plastic was used in the dashes for several years and dodge refuses to correct the problem. Maybe instead of waiting until something bad happens you should check on this problem now and maybe save someone from injury or save someone's life maybe mine.
