DASHBOARD CRACKED AND CONTINUES TO GET WORSE; AFRAID IT MAY FALL IN AND RUIN SOME OF THE WIRING OR TRIP THE AIRBAG TO COME OUT. THE CRACKING STARTED SHORTLY AFTER THE WARRANTY RAN OUT AND THE DEALER SAID THEY WOULD NOT NOR WOULD DODGE COVER THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT. PRETTY SAID AND I FOUND A WEBSITE WITH OVER 99 PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUES. THIS SHOULD BE FIXED BY DODGE. *TR

PURCHASED A 1999 DODGE 1500 WITH APPROXIMATELY 49K MILES ON IT IN 2004. HAVE HAD CONTINUAL PROBLEM WITH DASH BREAKING. IT IS NOW TO THE POINT THAT I FEEL THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WILL BE IMPAIRED OR EVEN BECOME LETHAL IF IT DEPLOYED. THIS APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT WITH NUMEROUS OTHER OWNERS HAVING THE SAME COMPLAINT. DODGE HAS REFUSED TO HELP CORRECT PROBLEM. THIS MAKES IT POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS FOR A FRONT SEAT PASSENGER. I AM AFRAID WITH THE CONDITION OF THE DASH AT THIS POINT SERIOUS BODILY INJURY MAY OCCUR DUE TO ITS CONDITION. IT ALMOST APPEARS THAT THE DEFAULT HAS CAUSED THE POSITION OF THE DASH TO CHANGE SUBSEQUENTLY CHANGING THE POSITION OF THE AIRBAG. *TR
