problem #2

2008Apr 18

PT Cruiser Limited

  • Manual transmission
  • 50,000 miles

Noticed a small crack in the dash, then 3 days ago I watched the crack go all the way across the dash. I see a lot of complaints on the net about this, but I don't see where Chrysler is doing anything. Chrysler told me to take it to the dealer. DUH..........If a lot of cruisers are getting dash cracks...........why hasn't there been a recall?
To me the dashboard that Chrysler has designed and engineered into the PT Cruiser and that is failing, across the country, is not subject to normal wear like breaks, tires, or even a seat cushion. It is not subject to exterior trauma like stone strikes, shopping carts hits, etc. Essentially the top of the dashboard is not subject to driving stresses? That indicates a design or material flaw that is Chrysler's responsibility.
I will get my dash replaced, because I can't stand to see this crack, that is getting worse, but I would sure like Chrysler to step up to the plate!

This seems to have appeared overnight! I now live in Florida but I bought the car in Michigan and lived there for the first year of ownership. I keep ArmorAll on it and use my windshield sun deflector every day. Has anyone else had this problem?
