I HAVE A 2000 DODGE RAM THAT THE DASH CRACKED AND IS NOW FALLING OUT IN HUGE PIECES THIS STARTED ABOUT 4 TO 5 YEARS AGO. I'M WORRIED THAT THIS WILL AFFECT THE AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE TRUCK AND THE WIRING UNDER THE DASH. WHEN I CALLED THE DODGE LINE THEY SAID IT WOULD HAVE TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AT THE DEALERSHIP WE HAD ALREADY TALKED TO A DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NO PROBLEMS WITH THE DASHES IN THE DODGE TRUCKS AND IT WOULD COST AROUND $800.00 TO REPLACE. *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2000 DODGE TRUCK HAS CRACKS ALL OVER IT. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST MINE BUT I FOUND OUT IT HAS HAPPENED TO MANY DODGE TRUCKS. I DON'T KNOW IF I'M WRITING TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE BUT I FEEL A DASHBOARD SHOULD LAST A LOT LONGER THAN 7 YEARS. SOME PEOPLE ARE SAYING THEIR LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING NOW DUE TO THE BIG HOLES THEY NOW HAVE IN THEIR DASHBOARD. *JB

ON HOT DAY, A VERTICAL CRACK FORMED IN DASH DURING NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THIS CRACK IS VERY NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. AT THE LEAST THIS COULD CAUSE A RIP IN THE AIRBAG DURING DEPLOYMENT. AT THE WORST THIS COULD CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO MALFUNCTION ALL TOGETHER. *JB

PURCHASED MY 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 IN 2005 AND IT ALREADY HAD A CRACKED DASH. THERE WERE HOLES AS LARGE AS A NOTEBOOK IN THE DASH AND I AM STILL FINDING PIECES TO THE DASH THAT ARE FALLING ONTO THE FLOOR. THE CRACK GOES FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG TO THE WINDSHIELD AND SEVERAL HOLES AS LARGE AS MY FIST ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. *JB

2000 DODGE RAM 1500 TRUCK, 5.9L, AUTO, SINGLE CAB, SLT. DASH IS CRACKED AND FALLING TO PIECES. DODGE DENIES ANY PROBLEMS THAT WOULD WARRANT THEM REIMBURSING ME FOR THE DASH. I PAID OUT OF POCKET FOR A NEW DASH PANEL THAT I HAVE TO INSTALL. WINDSHIELD HAS ALWAYS HAD A SHADE IN IT, AND ALMOST NEVER HAVE PRODUCTS SUCH AS ARMOR ALL OR OTHER INTERIOR PRODUCTS BEEN USED ON IT. FOR THE RECORD, I ALSO HAVE A 1996 DODGE RAM 1500, WITH A PERFECT DASH. 98-01 RAMS HAD THE UPDATED DASHES THAT ARE THE ONES CRACKING ON MANY PEOPLE'S VEHICLES. *JB

I HAVE A 2000 DODGE RAM PICKUP AND THE DASH BOARD HAS STARTED TO CRACK. THE CRACKS GO ACROSS THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD AND I AM AFRAID THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS GOING TO BECOME DISLODGED BECAUSE OF THE CRACKS. I HAVE THE AIRBAG DEACTIVATED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAS BASICALLY TOLD TOUGH LUCK THERE IS NO RECALL AND ITS $210.00 FOR A REPLACEMENT PART
