Description of the problem	Several months ago, i purchased a 2003 dodge ram 1500 from a local car salesman. The first few months were perfectly fine, however, that did not last for long. One day, i noticed a small crack above my steering wheel. I figured it was nothing and began cleaning the interior of my truck. However, when i started wiping down the dashboard, that crack spread at least five or six inches. By the end of the month, there were several cracks throughout my dashboard, some leaving pieces completely removable. Several the pieces have fell into my defrosting vents, leaving me to remove them. I quickly started looking online for replacement dashboards, and i noticed that several other people were having the same problems, some even becoming cut while trying to clean the interior. This poses a serious safety risk. If a person were to have a collision, that individual would most likely get cut by flying dash debris. It might even cost that individual his or her life. So i urge the national highway traffic safety administration to step in and fix this problem.
