2001 DODGE RAM THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN GARAGED UNTIL 2005. IN 2005, THE DASH TOP BEGAN TO CRACK IN ONE AREA... BUT OVER TIME THE CRACKS HAVE INCREASED AND BECOME MORE NUMEROUS AND SEVERE. BECAUSE THE SOME OF THE LARGEST BREAKS ARE LOCATED AT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AREA, I HAVE ACTUALLY HAD PASSENGERS IN MY TRUCK ASK ME TO TURN OFF THE AIRBAG (SINCE DEPLOYMENT CAN HAPPEN AT SLOW SPEEDS LIKE TAPPING A BOLLARD WHILE PARKING, ETC.) 12 OUT OF 14 (86%) OF PEOPLE I KNOW WITH TRUCKS CLOSE TO MY TRUCK'S YEAR MODEL HAVE THE SAME EXTREME CRACKING, QUITE A FEW ARE EVEN WORSE THAN MINE...*JB

I OWN A 2001 DODGE RAM 1500. I AM COMPLAINING ABOUT MY DASH IN MY TRUCK. IT HAS BEEN BROKEN SINCE 2003, IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON SUFFERING FROM THIS PROBLEM. RECENTLY THE DASH LIGHTS WOULD TURN OFF THEN TURN BACK ON. RIGHT NOW I WILL NOT DRIVE MY TRUCK AT NIGHT IN FEAR THAT MORE LIGHTS WILL FAIL. *TR

I OWN A 2001 DODGE RAM PICK UP. APPROXIMATELY 2 YEARS AGO WE DISCOVERED THAT THE DASHBOARD HAD CRACKED IN NUMEROUS PLACES. WE HAD IT REPLACED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. WE HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THE REPLACED DASHBOARD IS AGAIN CRACKING. I FEEL THAT THESE PARTICULAR MODELS ARE DEFECTIVE AND I WOULD LIKE FOR THE DASHBOARD TO BE EXCHANGED AGAIN WITHOUT COST TO ME AS A CONSUMER. I DO NOT WANT THIS DASHBOARD CAVING IN LIKE OTHERS THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. I DEARLY LOVE MY TRUCK AND IT'S A SHAME THAT AN ITEM SUCH AS THIS COULD DECIDE WHETHER I BUY FROM DODGE IN THE FUTURE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION OF THIS REQUEST. *TR

OUR TRUCK HAS ALWAYS BEEN PARKED UNDER A CARPORT AND HAS ONLY 58,000 MILES ON IT. WE HAVE HEARD THAT THE DASH WILL COLLAPSE AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

THE DASH IS SEVERELY CRACKED. THIS IS HAPPENING TO SEVERAL DODGE RAM'S OF THE 2001 YEAR THAT I KNOW OF. IT IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION, WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF THE BROKEN DASH FALLING DOWNWARD AND POSSIBLY DAMAGING WIRING, OR EVEN GETTING STUCK ON THE GAS PEDAL, POTENTIALLY CAUSING A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *JB

I OWN A 2001 DODGE RAM PICKUP TRUCK AND MY DASH BOARD STARTED CRACKING AND THE CRACKS KEEPS SPREADING AND GETTING BIGGER. THIS STARTED AROUND 2-3 YEARS AGO. I DID NOTIFY THE DEALERSHIP OF WHERE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK AND WAS TOLD THAT IF I WAS THE ORIGINALLY OWNER THAT THEY COULD HELP ME. I THEN CONTACTED THE HEADQUARTER OF DODGE AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT HELP ME. THAT I WAS ON MY OWN. *JB
