2002 Dodge RAM 2500

DASH STARTED TO CRACK. NOW I HAVE A LARGE HOLE IN THE DASH, SEVERAL CRACKS AND A SMALL HOLE IN THE DASH. I ALSO HAVE HOLES AND CRACKS IN THE BEZEL. IT IS A SHAME DODGE IS NOT REPLACING THE DASH. I HAVE A 74 CAMARO AND THE DASH IS NOT CRACKED, HAVE A FEW 95 CHEVYS, A 95 BUICK, 99 CHEVY IN MY FAMILY AND NONE OF THEM HAVE THE ISSUES WITH THE DASH. THIS IS A ISSUE WITH JUST ABOUT EVERY DODGE RAM OWNER OF THE SAME YEAR! *TR

2002 DODGE DASHBOARD IS COMPLETELY FAILED. FALLING IN AND CREATING SHARP OBJECTS IN BEHIND DASH AND ON FLOORBOARDS. PULLED A SHARP SHARD OF PLASTIC FROM MY SONS MOUTH 2 DAYS AGO THAT I HAD MISSED FROM THE FLOOR BOARD. THE PLASTIC MADE HIS MOUTH BLEED. I'M VERY GLAD HE DIDN'T TRY TO SWALLOW IT. I HOPE OTHERS ARE AWARE OF THIS AND KEEP THE SMALL OBJECTS FROM THE CHILDREN ALSO!! DODGE NEEDS TO FIX THIS SAFETY PROBLEM. NOT TO MENTION WHAT ALL THOSE PLASTIC SHARDS WOULD DO IN AN HIGH SPEED IMPACT SCENARIO. PLEASE LET'S GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED WITH ALL NEW RELIABLE SAFE MATERIAL. DODGE OFFERED ME A FREE DASH THE LAST TIME I CALLED THEM HOWEVER THEY WANTED ME TO PAY FOR LABOR. THE PRODUCT I ASKED IS THE EXACT SAME AND HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED. I'M NOT PAYING FOR THIS TO JUST HAPPEN AGAIN EVEN IF IT IS FOR LABOR ONLY. IT ALSO SUGGESTS THEY KNOW IT IS A SEVERE PROBLEM OR THEY WOULDN'T HAVE OFFERED THAT TO ME. (RELATED VEHICLE INFORMATION: MODEL YEAR=2002, MAKE=DODGE, MODEL=RAM 2500). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 DODGE RAM 2500. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WHEN HE BEGAN TO PERFORM MAINTENANCE ON THE RADIO. WHILE PERFORMING MAINTENANCE, THE DASHBOARD BEGAN TO CRUMBLE AND THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED AND BRITTLE IN NUMEROUS LOCATIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO HAVE THE FAILURE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 88,000.

I HAVE A 2002 DODGE RAM 2500 AND THE DASHBOARD HAD COMPLETELY CRACKED AND PECED AWAY. THERE ARE SHARP PLSTIC PIECES I FIND EVERYWHERE. THEY SLIDE UNDER THE PEDALS AND CAUSE A DISTRACTION. IM CONSTANTLY GATHERING PEICES LARGE AND SMALL FROM MY DASH FALLING THROUGH WHILE I DRIVE. THE GLARE IT MAKES ON THE WINDSHIELD ALSO IS A DESTRACTION. I FIND MYSELF LOOKING AT THIS MONSTROSITY AND NOT ON THE ROAD. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND MOST CERTAINLY SHOULD BE A RECALL. WHY WOULD I BUY ANOTHER ONE WHEN ITS JUST GOING TO CAUSE THE SAME PROBLEM AND UPSET ME. *TR

FLYING SHARP OBJECTS. FROM DODGE CRACKING DASH. THIS PROBLEM IS NOT CAUSED BY SUNLIGHT SINCE MY TRUCK IS PARKED UNDER COVER AND IS NOT AVAILABLE TO THE SUN. THE SHARP SHARDS OF PLASTIC BREAK AND CRACK OFF AND MAKE FOR A VERY BAD PLACE TO IMPACT THE HUMAN BODY IF A SAFETY RESTRAINT WERE TO MALFUNCTION OR FAIL COMPLETELY. THE FLYING DEBRIS ALSO POSES A RISK DURING AN IMPACT OR COLLISION. *TR
