Description of the problem	The dashboard on my 2002 dodge ram 1500 truck is cracking. What will happen in an accident? What happens when the passenger air bag deploys? Will plastic fragments act like projectiles and hurt occupants? Contacted my dealer and chrysler corp. With no help except for an option to replace for $1,100. Why should the consumer pay for a defective product? I don't have $1,100 to fix this problem and then have no guarantee if i'm not just buying the same type of product (junk). If it has been revised, then chrysler knows it defective.
