| Description of the problem | 2001 dodge ram, 65000 original miles and dash is badly cracked. If it continues to crack the dash is going to fall in. I have to worry about sharp plastic pieces (which have cut my skin just touching) falling into dash and cutting wires (fire issue) and cracked dashes may lead to ripped airbags on deployment(safety issue). This truck has always been taken care of and honestly i think it needs to be fixed. |
