| Description of the problem | I own a 2001 dodge ram quad cab 4x4, on sat 4-17-10 my family and i were camping in norther michigan, climbed into my truck and closed the doors. Once we closed the doors the dash shattered and a plastic shard flew onto my 18 month old daughters lap and she pick it up. I was able to get it away from her before she ate it. I am currently waiting for a call back from chrysler about replacing the dash. I shattered in many locations across the dash and in many directions. I only have 58,000 miles on my truck. I would like it to be replaced! |
