Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Dash board has desintegrated due to faulty materials. Dash has been covered since about 2 weeks after date of purchase which was dec 31st 1999. Truck was ordered straight from the factory an I am the only owner of the vehicle since day 1. Set papers on dash and when I picked them up realised a soft spot in the dash mat. Lifted mat to find large hole in dash.”
NHTSA complaint #10786979, filed 2015-10, 130,000 miles“My dash is cracking and large sharp peices of it are just laying on the dash, it seems to get worse every time I look at it. I am worried those peices will fly up and into my face or my childres face while driving down the road. The only thing I can think of to do is try to glue them back down. Even so it continues to crack and what if I dont katch a new cracked peice and it does hurt someone.”
NHTSA complaint #10432805, filed 2011-10, 130,000 miles“Plastic dashboard has multiple fractures and cracks through no fault of mine. Many of the edges are very sharp and could lead to serious injury if the vehicle was involved in an accident and one of the occupants was thrown into , or contacted the dash with any part of their body. This is ridiculous that the dashboard is falling apart on this pickup all by itself. I suspect at some point I won't be able to drive the vehicle anymore because the gauges will be laying on the floor.”
NHTSA complaint #10761884, filed 2015-09, 87,000 miles“The dashboard in my truck with only 92,000 miles is developing numerous cracks at the windshield area near the defroster vents, and around the mounting screws near the windshield. I have personally seen this in at least 10 other ram trucks, and have found hundreds of pages on the internet of people complaining about this problem. Some have huge holes in the dash top! I've seen pictures of this. …”
NHTSA complaint #10184663, filed 2007-03, 81,500 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.”
