“Recent purchase of 1999 Dodge ram 1500 sport truck. With no force or assistance the dash of the truck cracked once and within seconds another larger crack engulfed the dash. The truck was in the garage when the initial incident happened and the other happened as I stated above seconds later as I backed out of the garage.”
NHTSA complaint #10226846, filed 2008-05, 113,000 miles“I've noticed recent new stories about Dodge Truck dash board collapse problems. Unfortunately, during the time my vehicle was under warranty, Dodge refused to correct the defect. The dash is a total write off now and we are beginning to notice intermittent electrical problems.”
NHTSA complaint #10189438, filed 2007-05, 47,000 miles“I have a 1999 Dodge ram truck 2500 series 4x4. The dash on this vehicle has totally caved in and fallen on the controls, airbag, fan and wiring. I can't even get to some of the pieces of the plastic. I have read and heard on the radio/tv that this is a problem that a lot of Dodge owners are having it isn't just me. This is obviously a problem with the materials that Dodge is using in they're plastic and should have a recall on their dashboards.”
NHTSA complaint #10244419, filed 2008-10, 45,000 miles“I have two 1999 Dodge ram 2500 pickups and both of them have cracked dashes which are about to cave in. I have friend who is also having the same problem but his dash already caved in and now is having electrical problems. I have seen countless , newer and older trucks with the same problem. I am wondering if Dodge is working to remedy this problem?”
