I have talked with several repair shops about the dash problem in my Ram. All say the same thing. I could have told you not to buy a DODGE, 4 of 5 have the same problem. I have fixed mine with the one thing in the world that solves most problems with defects of workmanship in the Auto Industry. and what is that you ask? DUCT TAPE, if it was good enough for Apollo 13, it will work for me. Maybe Dodge needs to supply a couple of rolls with each new truck and after each service call to a dealer.

I BOUGHT THIS 1999 DODGE RAM IN 2002 WITH ABOUT 40,000 MILES ON IT. I NOW HAVE 79,000. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE, THE DASH CRACKED. AFTER ABOUT 10 CRACKS ACROSS THE TOP OF THE DASH IN EVERY HORIZONTAL DIRECTION. I WENT TO THE "5 STAR" LOCAL DEALER AND SHOWED THEM THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM AND ESTIMATED $1500 TO REPAIR. UNTIL NOW, I THOUGHT THAT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WITH THE PROBLEM AND ASSUMED THAT THIS CERTAINLY WASN'T A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM THAT MAY BE IN LINE FOR A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. I ORDERED A CUSTOM FIT MAT AT AUTOZONE TO PUT OVER THE CRACKS. THE CRACKS HAVE CONTINUED AND ARE NOW GOING VERTICAL ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEZEL. THERE ARE PROBABLE 15 CRACKS IN ALL. IN ADDITION, THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT PLASTIC DOOR FRAME HINGE PIN (PART OF THE DASH) BROKE OFF ON THE LOWER LEFT SIDE. I EPOXIED IN A PIECE OF WOOD DOWEL ROD TO MAKE THE GLOVE BOX DOOR WORK. I WISH THAT SOMEONE WOULD START A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT THAT RESULTED IN FREE DASH REPLACEMENT WITH THE LAWYER FEES BEING ADDED ABOVE AND BEYOUND THE BASIC REPLACEMENT BENEFIT. THE GOOD FAITH ON THE PART OF THE DODGE "5 STAR" WOULD ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO BE LESS HOSTILE AND POSSIBLY DO FURTHER PURCHASES FROM CHRYSLER MOTORS. RIGHT NOW, I WOULD NOT BUY OR RECOMMEND ANY OF THEIR VEHICLES. IF THEY DON'T DO SOMETHING BY THE TIME THAT I EVETUALLY SELL THIS TRUCK (IF POSSIBLE), I WILL MAKE IT MY PERSONAL GOAL TO SPREAD THIS NEWS TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE ABOUT THEIR UNWILLINGNESS TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT A KNOWN SERIOUS PROBLEM. I'LL BET IT WILL BE CHEAPER FOR THEM TO INSTALL A FREE NEW DASH! IS THERE A DODGE TRUCK OWNER WHO IS A LAWYER IN THE AUDIANCE? ANYONE OUT THERE THAT CAN RECOMMEND A SOLUTION?
Update from Oct 25, 2009: UPDATE - I JUST REPORTED IT TO THE NHTSA AS AN AIRBAG SAFETY PROBLEM AS FOLLOWS:
SEEMS LIKE THE DASH FALLING APART WOULD SET OFF THE AIR BAG OR SHORT THE WIRING TO CAUSE UNSAFE OPERATIONAL PROBLEM SUCH AS A FIRE. IF THE AIR BAG DEPLOYS WITH A FRAGMENTED DASH, WILL THE SHARP FRAGMENTS BECOME MISSLES THAT COULD INJURE OR KILL THE DRIVER OR PASSENGER? THIS APPEARS TO BE A REALLY UNSAFE CONDITION. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET. CAN YOU HELP PUT THE PRESSURE ON DODGE FOR A RECALL TO REPLACE OUR DASHES?

I think we all know this a defective product an could be a very hazardous problem in a lot of ways. Shattering into pieces upon air bag deployment on passenger side,electrical failure if water got down behind dash panel,not to mention how bad it looks. I filed a complaint with http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/ and suggest you do the same. Let's get a recall.

It is garaged most of the time, unless we are camping.

I own 2 Dodge 1500 pickups. The dash has cracked on both vehicles and caved in. I went to dodge who told me "Yea we've had a lot of those", hint Dodge sounds like a problem. I love my vehicles and take care of both. I want to fix my vehicle but it will cost 200 dollars a piece for the part and then 700 dollars a piece for the labor. This sucks and I can't afford this. Dodge just a hint you've lost me as a customer and I'm sure several others as a result of your poor customer service. I paid cash for both vehicles looks like Ford or Toyota will be getting my money from now on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Dash started cracking about 5 years after I bought the Truck, My grip is that since there are so many complaints that either the manufacturer that made the dash for Chrysler or Chrysler Corporation itself should pay for it getting replaced. I agree with another person’s grip, a class actions law suit should be filed on the behalf of all of us. I also will not buy another Chrysler product since they know this is a problem and they failed to act on it. And to think we (taxpayers) are paying the money for there bailout.

My dash started cracking with just small cracks and continued to worsen. I took the truck to a Dodge dealer and I was advised they had seen several such problems in these trucks but the Dodge Corp. would not fix them. They advised if I wanted the truck repaired, I would have to pay for the repairs.
The dash continues to fall apart. I think there should be a class action law suit against Dodge and would be a willing participant.

I love everything about my Dodge Ram 1500, but the dash !! I bought this truck because I loved the way it ran and the way it looked. Now thanks to the manufacturers defected dash board, my truck looks like i picked it up straight out of the junk yard. My dash started out with a small crack and before I knew it, there were 5 small cracks, then more. Now I have no dash left in my truck !! Seriously I am driving around with exposed wires and it looks horrible !! You would think if Dodge wanted to stay in business past this recession, they would take care of their customers and issue an immediate recall on the crap they sell !!!

I bought my truck In January of 2008 and it had a few cracks in the dash already. Now the cracks have spidered all over the dash and caving in. I have sections of the dash that have fallen in that are more then a foot wide. It is embarrassing because its the first thing you see when you look at the front side of the truck. I have looked all over the internet to find out why Dodge has not had a recall on this. Now that I have seen how many other people have had the same problems it really aggravates me that Dodge wont do anything about there own problems. They want the government to help bail them out in financial problems but don't even think of taking care of the customers they currently have them selves!!!!!! Last Dodge I will buy!!!

I wish Id thought to snap a few pics before I typed this..
My dash starting cracking shortly after the truck was paid off. Since then it starting to look like the Salt Flats out west...the cracks not only run all over the dash pad but also extend into the trim over the Driver console (around the gauge display).
A new dash is simply outta the question. The cost has sky-rocketed because you just can't find one without a cracking issue.
This is really the only eyesore on my truck and has actually dropped the offers that potential buyers are offering by a couple of hundred dollars (yeah, its for sale!)
With a professional background in chemical and Polymer manufacturing, I know a few things about this product. I work for more than a few Tier 1, 2, and 3 suppliers (supplied straight to Ford, GM, Chrysler, etc) and I know what the problem is...Degradation. This is caused by the producer trying to cut cost of raw material by using a high percentage of "regrind" in their process. After several generations of regrind are pass through the thermal process, the molecular bonding in the polymer start to break down and it become more and more brittle, losing the flexibility and durability of the "first generation" productions. During quality testing this is not detectable because these parts haven't been exposed to extended period of UV exposure. Its only detectable after these periods.
Dodge/ Crysler put the demands on their supplier, but the supplier is ultimately responsible for the evident quality issue

I think I am ready for that class action lawsuit against Dodge. Its time we as consumers stand up and show the makers of our autos, that we will not stand for cheap quality made transportation any longer.
It is a shame, that we buy our cars that are not guaranteed any more for the lifetime of the vehicles. I see these trucks on the road all the time. Good trucks, but the quality manufacturers put into the materials they use to build the inside of the vehicles we use to go to work, for work and our families, is just dwindling down to throw away crap. We work hard for our money, and its not right, that the American people are ripped off this way. What has happened to the pride that we use to have in the products we made? Pride...no pride any more, just money hungry, cheaply made, throw away products, and no one will stand behind what they make. This will be the last Dodge product I buy.
Anyone still want to get that lawsuit started? I am in!

1999 Dodge Ram 1500 with a cracked dash board. I have put several thousands of dollars into this truck only to have the dash fall apart, cup holder break, evaporator
coil going bad. Least to say how disappointing to have these problems. I have a
'90 Chevrolet work van with 300,000 miles and has no cracks in the dash. Obviously
by all the complaints this is definitely a manufacturer defect and there should be a recall
of some kind. I was thinking about buying the new Challenger but I think i'll wait for the
Camaro instead.

I bought this truck new, the cracked dash board was one of may problems faced with this vehicle since I have owned it. Truck was in mint condition when it happened went to drive it one day and noticed a snap sound, low and behold it was the dash board. it has several cracks in it including from the glass to the driver seat, from the glass to the radio , from the glass to the passenger side air bag. I have yet been able to find a remedy for this problem and trying to get help from the dealer who sold it to me is next to impossible for any complaint. Dodge should stand behind their product and realize that this model and year is terrible for this problem and they should either recall it or pay the repair cost. I feel I was charged extremely good money for a company who obviously cut corners on quality.

I bought a 1999 Dodge Quad Sport 4x4 in 2005 from a local dealer. 6 months later I got a large crack in the dash from the vent to the radio. I covered it with a dash mat. Looks kinda cheesy if you ask me but it was a cheap band-aid. I just looked under it last week and I now have 6-7 large cracks from the windshield to the bezel and glove box areas. This is the 3rd complaint thread I've posted on and I can tell you this is DEFINITELY NOT AN ISOLATED CASE! There are thousands of these bad dashes and calling the dealers and corporate have had mixed results. I'm calling next week to 1-800-992-1997 and giving my vin# along with my complaint. You can try yourself if you like. Some have gotten theirs fixed for free, some with deductibles and some got snubbed. Or should I say MOST got snubbed. Used replacement parts are rare at best and new ones from the dealer are in the $400-550 range so I've heard. Then there's the labor cost of $500-700. I've been looking everywhere for info on how to remove the dash for the DIY'ers but I've had little luck except for the fact I've been told it's a pain in the butt. Wish me luck calling them.....

Everyone I know with this year and model has had the dash crack. Currently mine is cracked from windshield to airbag and there's a nice big chunk that rattles around for that extra ambiance. I bought this truck in new in 1999 and have never had major engine trouble but the interior is falling apart including the driver side door panel. The small things start to add up and I will never buy another Dodge again.

It's sad to say that everything we work hard to pay just crumbles in front of us. My dashboard is cracked, crumbled, broken, missing, etc...I also agree that Dodge should step up and take responsibility for this defect. If I wanted a broken dash, I would have just taken a hammer to it. It's very embarrassing to drive around with my dash looking this way. It's more depressing that I paid all that money just to see it that happen.I hadn't even finished paying off my truck when this happened.What a shame...Definitely no more Dodge for me!!!!

Called Dodge today and they said the dash was $400.00 and the black trim was $325.00 So we have $725.00 for two parts that should be replaced by Dodge! I took the truck to the shop today for A/C not working and they said that the evaporator had to be replaced, and the dash would need to be removed....Well when they take the dash off there is no way that it is going back on. The dash has more cracks and lines than a 90 year old person. Dodge told me today that the dash is not a recall and I would have to buy it!

Like everyone else I have a 1999 Dodge RAM 1500 with a cracked dashboard. The crack goes from the passenger side defroster vent all the way up to the instrument panel. I went to my local Dodge Dealer and they said it would cost me $950.00 to repair. Then I called Dodge Customer Assistance to see if they would cover the cost for the poorly manufactured part and of course they said it's out of warranty and will not cover it. I was also told they never had any complaints about the dashboards cracking, damn liars!! So I filed a complaint with the NHTSA and with Consumer Affairs. Hopefully something will get done. I will never buy a Chrysler product again!!

I see I'm not the only one with this issue. The dash in my 1999 Dodge 1500 is gone. It stated as a small crack to a large crack to smaller cracks to no dash. I contacted Dodge and still waiting for a response. If you have any info that could help me please post it. You can contact Dodge at 1-800-992-1997 to report this issue or go to local6.com to watch a report that was made about this issue. The report was made over a year ago by reporter Steve cooper so you have to look under investigating reports. I was amazed to see that this has to be a dealer issue because the footage that was shot of different trucks is identical to my truck. AGAIN if anyone has had any luck with this issue please post it so others can benefit.

You describe your accessories - interior problem or ask your question and they try to help you figure it out. The fee is typically $9 to $15, but you can offer to pay more for really tough questions. You will usually receive an answer in 10 minutes or less, and you do not have to pay anything unless you accept the answer.
