Description of the problem	My dash started cracking before i bought it back in 3/2009 but now the cracks are "holes". The dash is literally caving in. What is left is sharp edged pieces that can easily cut you. Also, the wide open craters are allowing the hot texas sun to bake the wiring and has to be a contributing factor to the random intermittent electrical issues that seem to be cropping up periodically.
