I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 1999 DODGE RAM LARAMIE SLT. AFTER HAVING IT FOR A FEW MONTHS I NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED AND CRAKING IN NUMEROUS PLACES. AFTER A FEW WEEKS I NOW HAVE NUMEROUS HOLES IN MY DASH BOARD. IT IS BEGINING TO LOOK LIKE A JIG SAW PUZZLE. THIS IS A SERIOUS DEFECT THAT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE. *AK

CRACKED DASHBOARD: ALL OF A SUDDEN MY DASHBOARD STARTED TO CRACK FOR NO REASON. CRACKING PIECES WERE FALLING UNDER THE DASHBOARD, POSSIBILITY OF SLICING WIRES. EXPOSED WIRES WERR NOW EXPOSED TO THE SUNLIGHT. COULD CAUSE MELTING OF THE WIRES. DODGE WON'T REPLACE THE ITEM EVEN THOUGH IT IS AN OBVIOUS DEFECT ACROSS ALL OF DODGE'S TRUCKS. *AK

I OWN A 1999 DODGE RAM 2500 PICK UP TRUCK. THE DASHBOARD ON THE TRUCK IS CRISS-CROSSED WITH MANY CRACKS. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IN AN ACCIDENT THE JAGGED SHARDS OF THE DASH BOARDCOULD TURN INTO DEADLY PROJECTILES.*AK NOTHING LED TO THE DASH DEVELOPING THESE CRACKS, IT APPEARS THAT THE PLASTIC WASN'T DESIGNED TO HANDLE THE STRESSES THAT DAY TO DAY USE PLACES ON IT. CURRENTLY THE DASH ISN'T REPLACED, IF THE MANUFACTURER NEEDS TO SEE THE DASH THEY ARE WELCOME TO VIEW IT.

WHEN RIDDING DOWN THE ROAD, I WAS CUT OFF BY ANOTHER CAR I TURNED THE WHEEL TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR AND I HIT THE CURB THAT WAS ABOUT 3 INCHES HIGH. WHEN I HIT THE CURB MY DASH BOARD CRACKED. THERE IS A BIG HOLE IN THE MIDDLE, A LONG CRACK STRAIGHT ACROSS.I CALLED MY INSURANCE COMPANY TO CLAIM BUT WAS DENIED BECAUSE OF A MANUFACTURE DEFAULT. DEALER SAID IT WILL COST ME ABOUT 3,500 TO FIX. I WAS ONLY GOING 7 MILES PER HOUR. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
FUEL INJECTOR PUMP STOPPED WORKING AND FROM ALL OF INFORMATION I FOUND IT SEEMED TO ME IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL. WE HAD A ACCIDENT IN 2005 FROM THE STALLING OF THE PUMP, AND WAS TOLD BY THE BODY SHOP IT WAS THE CAUSE OF THE WRECK. WE HAVE SPENT MONEY ON SENSORS TRYING TO REPAIR TO FINALLY BE TOLD THAT THE VP-44 CODE WAS THE FUEL INJECTOR PUMP, AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACE AND THAT CERTAIN COMPANIES HAVE MADE A SPECIAL PART TO REPAIR THIS AND COULD PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING. WHY CAN'T DODGE REPAIR? DOES IT TAKE SOMEONE TO DIE JUST TO GET SOMETHING REPAIR RIGHT, WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE DURING THE MAKING OF THE PRODUCT? *TR

1999 DODGE RAM 1500 WITH DISSINTIGRATING DASH BOARD LEADING TO ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTIONS. WHEN MULTIPLE DEALERS WERE ASKED ABOUT THE PROBLEM THE ANSWERS GIVEN WERE ALWAYS "BECAUSE IT IS NOT A MECHANICAL PROBLEM, THEN IT IS NOT A WARRENTY ISSUE." WAS ALSO TOLD THAT SINCE IT WAS NOT A MECHANICAL PROBLEM THAT IT WON'T BE A RECALL MATTER UNLESS IT MIGHT CAUSE A SAFETY ISSUE.
