| Description of the problem | I have a 2001 dodge ram 1500 and the dash pad is cracked and several pieces are missing. I ask the dealer if dodge had issued a recall for the problem and was told no. I have been reading several comments on corcomplaint about drivers with the same problem having additional issue such as headlights not coming on and other electrical problems... Having large holes in the dash and having the sun heating up electrical wires seems like a safety issue. This is my reason for filing this complaint. |
