| Description of the problem | I have a 2002 dodge 1500 and the dash board is cracking and falling where the defrost blows and last winter i turned it on and a sharp piece of the dash cut my face. I ain't sayin it was bad but if it would had hit me in the eye and made me wreck and die then my family would own dodge. Yall say its not dangerous and i would agree if that wouldn't had happened to me but it did and its extremely dangerous and i think yall should recall them and make dodge replace them and start making them better. I had a 98 gmc and it had no problem so they need to make them like gmc does and stop making everything so cheap before they kill everyone. |
