Description of the problem	I drive a 2001 dodge ram 1500 4x4 1/2 ton. I am a victim of the famous "cracked dash" epidemic. Around april of 2005 i began noticing small cracks developing on my dash. Beginning from the windshield and eventually from around the a/c vents. It has since progressed into the entire dash being almost completely broken out. I have resorted to a temporary dash cover to conceal the damage. I have read on the internet about certain safety issues with the cracked dash. If i were to have an accident and my air bags deployed, the cracked dash could cause the airbags to be punctured and possibly limit my safety. This a major concern of mine and i would like it fixed. *jb
