About a month ago my dodge ram 1500 trucks dash board cracked down the middle from the window to the front edge and all way through, then everyday it just started cracking all over the place, two large pieces are completely cracked out, leaving two huge holes. Now I've a crack going from passenger side to drivers side! I called dodge and they said no on recall and it would cost me out of my pocket about 400.00 to replace it, aside from this when the first crack happened my stereo quit the next day and my air conditioning!

The manufacturer acknowledged the failure, and stated that they will only honor vehicles from the years 1998 and above. The contact feared that if shewas involved in a crash someone will be hurt because of the deteriorated dashboard. The current mileage is 199,800, and failure mileage was 100,000.
Noticed crack in the dash of vehicle.
I have a 1995 dodge ram two years ago the dash started cracking. It is bad now all the way from one side to other. I have spoke with a lot of other people with this same problem.
This complaint is in reference to my 1995 dodge ram 1500. I have had problems with the cup holders. It has cutouts on the sides that allows the cup to tip onto the driver during a very slow turn. I recently was burned by a cup of coffee and ended up off the road in a ditch. The cup tipped over in a smooth turn at less than 20mph. Also the poor location of the holder, which sits high on the dash, causes visual imparment to the driver. I feel that this is a very unsafe condition and could cause a life threatening accident.
When I bought my truck it was just three years old and 50% of the paint was peeling off it. It's silver and since then I've seen many of the same color, haveing this problem: ford and chevy had a paint recall; why won't dodge? Now the truck is 80% peeling, personally I think it was because of bad primer. I have talked to four dodge dealerships in the area, they all told me they have had a problem with that color. They said they can't believe the manufacture won't stand behind their work and compensate the owners.
