Description of the problem | 1) unknown of what event lead up to this problem 2) the dash board on my 2001 dodge truck has several cracks that have appeared over the las 6 -10 months. I have researched the internet and have found may entries where other people are having the same problem with their truck. The dealerships are telling people that that the dashboard is not a recall item and that nothing can be done about as far as the dealers stand point. As far as i can tell this problem is isolated to just dodge products and they need to be forced to make this right. |
