| Description of the problem | about two months ago i started noticing this small crack in my dash, a day or two later the crack had gotten much bigger and there was another crack. Now i have three large cracks on my dashboard and they are on the passenger side running from the windshield toward the glove box, it will cost almost $1100. 00 to replace this. I have read many complaints about dodges cracked dashboards. I feel this may be a serious air bag issue that needs to be fixed. Http://www. Carcomplaints.
