2003 Mercedes Benz 208

I OWN A PT CRUISER 2003 AND I NOTICED ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO THAT THE DASHBOARD HAD A VERY BIG CRACK GOING STRAIGHT THROUGH THE MIDDLE. I AM THE ONLY PERSON THAT DROVE THE CAR SO I KNEW I DIDN'T DO IT. I THOUGHT THIS WAS PART OF WEAR AND TEAR. HOWEVER, THE CAR WAS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. THEN, I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS THE SUN. I WAS READING OUR LOCAL NEWSPAPER AND REALIZED THAT I WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAD THIS PROBLEM. THE DASHBOARD GOING TO PIECES AND I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT CHRYSLER WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS IMPERFECTION ON THEIR PART. I WOULD LIKE FOR THIS PROBLEM TO BE FIXED. I AM CURRENTLY FINANCING THE CAR AND COULD NOT AFFORD TO PURCHASE ANOTHER DASHBOARD, THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. I WOULD LIKE T FOR CHRYSLER TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS. *AK

I HAVE HAD TWO COMPLETE SETS OF CONTI -TOURING CONTACT ECO PLUS CONTI SEAL (P225/60 R 18 99H CH95) ON MY 2004 CHRYSLER 300 C AUTO IN THE LAST TWO YEARS. THE FIRST SET CAME WITH THE CAR. THE SECOND SET, WHICH I HAD TO REPLACE DUE TO DANGEROUS TIRE WEAR AND INSTABILITY, HAS NOW GONE BAD. THEY MUST BE REPLACED. MY CAR ONLY HAS 32,000 MILES ON IT AND I HAVE NOW GONE THROUGH TWO COMPLETE SETS OF CONTINENTAL TIRES. TWO CHRYSLER DEALERS (ONE IN WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA AND THE OTHER IN GREEN COVE SPRINGS, FLORIDA) REFUSES TO REPLACE THESE TIRES WITH ANOTHER BRAND. THEY PASS THE RESPONSIBILITY ON TO CONTINENTAL. CONTINENTAL WANT TO PUT THEIR NEW TIRES ON MY CAR, AT A REDUCED PRICE. I WILL NOT PUT CONTINENTAL TIRES ON MY CAR AGAIN. WHAT RECOURSE DO I HAVE OTHER THAN TAKING LEGAL ACTION? PLEASE ADVISE. *NM
