“2000 Dodge RAM 2500, dash board cracking and breaking leaving sharp exposed pieces of plastic. Called Dodge but have gotten no help thus far with the problem. I feel that this could cause serious injury if and accident occurred. It cracked when we opened the door on a hot sunny day and then it has cracked and broken more in the extreme cold weather when opening the door.”
NHTSA complaint #10372225, filed 2010-12, 80,000 miles“In july 2004 we took the truck in as it was not blowing cold air, they said that it was low on freon and had no visible leaks but possibly evap core leak. They put some sort of blue identifier in it and told us to check and see if we saw it anywhere so they would know where the leak is, nothing ever showed up. Now 1 1/2 years later the air conditioner is not blowing cold air again. We even made sure that we turned the air conditioner on monthly as they told us to so it would not go bad.”
