| Description of the problem | I've noticed on my low mileage 2001 dodge ram 1500 that the dash has been cracking and i bought a dash mat to cover the problem and now it is in horrible condition. I see that there are many people with this problem and i worry if i am ever in a wreck with a passenger that they are going be harmed by the large chunks of dash they are very sharp. I have taken great care of this pickup and there is no reason that this should be happening! |
