Description of the problem	I have a 2001 dodge ram 1500. The dashboard started to crack a few months ago. I don't drive my truck very often, i only use it for personal use. So therefore it is not abused in anyway. It has only 94,000 miles and was kept under a carport for most of its life. The only reason i am writing this complaint is to hope there will be a recall. I did some web surfing and found that there was countless people with the same problem. Some people said that dodge responded to there problems with it not being a safety issue. I beg to differ, i read on one account that a woman was driving at night when her dash fell and shorted out the electrical system to her lights. Just the sheer fact of the dash falling while she was driving could have caused a serious accident let alone the lights going out on her at night. I sure hope that dodge does the right thing and does a recall.
