| Description of the problem | I have a 2002 dodge ram pickup the dashboard has been cracked for a while from the defect in the material. The other day a piece of the dashboard broke off. Now there is a real sharp edge on the front of the dashboard and it will cut someone if they happen to put their hand on it just right. God forbid that some little child should bump their head on it. |
