Description of the problem	I own a 2001 dodge ram 1500 pickup truck. Recently i went out to my truck to go to work and noticed a large crack in my dash board running the entire length of the dash from the windshield to the front of the dash. This occurred about 2 months ago. And now as of this date 11 sep 2008 i have noticed several more cracks are now present. It is concerning because the biggest crack runs close to the passenger side airbag area. I am concerned that the airbag might deploy while driving if the dash collapses as has happened on several other dodge ram pickups. The airbag deployment might cause an accident or worse an injury.
