“Cut my self removing pieces the gov should make Dodge replace these dashes at no cost to us. I have a bad heater core and no one will change it because of the dash needs to be removed and its so broken they can't remove it without replacing it. At a cost of a $1000.00 plus the cost of the heater core r&r . I had to get a cover for my dash so I could reattached the VIN code. Please do something about this. I figure I will hit a bump one day and the whole thing will fall!!!”

“This is a necessity that Dodge needs to recall and reimburse people for their loses! I personally sent a letter to the Dodge corporation telling them of this dangerous product! Their answer! Sorry for your loss! The dash boards of the late model 90's and early 2000 trucks made by Dodge were built with cheaply made material. You could armoral or whatever cleaner and preserver you want and the dash would still fall apart. …”
