Dash is cracked and it poses a threat of injury either in a minor accident. Due to its extent of damage it continues it could affect the proper deployment of the airbag. It could so cause the airbag to become a weapon. In some cases the plastic parts that fall loose from the dash as the dash continues to deteriorate end up in the vent systems and can blow out when the fan is turned on. I wish you would investigate as dodge won't admit it is a defect. When they do install a replacement dash it is also defective and the cycle repeats. Dodge needs to help the thousands who are affected by this problem.
