| Description of the problem | My 2003 dodge ram 1500's dashboard is completely shattered without and force to it. It started cracking back in 09 and is now becoming sharp edged pieces all over my car. In the case of an accident these sharp pieces could easily do some damage to a sensitive part, such as a persons eye. If this is to happen to me, or any of the other of 1000's of people with this issue, there will be lawsuits out the ass for lack of recall. There is something obviously wrong with the dashboard in these trucks, and they need to be fixed. *kb |
