If there so many people out there and so many complaints why isn't Dodge steping up to the plate or t he Government ,to correct this problem. This is bullshit!
This is the worse truck I ever owen 2 trannys , 3 rear ends , and the dash board that crackes in frount of you , I should Have bought a Toyto or a Nession they get recalls buy Japaniees better than a American-Mexican Truck I guess they were build on a Taco day I had a dodge in the 70's when Leicolia ran the company and the cars and trucks were good I was with the FHP in Fl and run grand fury no problems 130 mph I am affraid to go fast with this truck it will disintergrate , and puke on the road bye oh the Federal H.W has OVER 900 complains about the dash I guess we are not uppies but country people so this Nov throw the bumb out of office in D.C. and we gett better cars and trucks

When is the Fed, going to recall this truck two thousand owe on it and it is falling apart my 94 Chev
had 500,000 on it till the eng went no rear end problems , or trannies I wore it out
I thought it was an isolated thing until I found this web site. My dash is comlpletely cracked and my front speakers don't work. I have a buddy with the same year truck with the same problem. You can bet I'm going to tell him to voice his complaint as well.
My wife and I bought the truck in like new condition. It had 32,000 miles on it. IT has been really dependable and I've had no mechanical problems with the truck however, the dashboard cracked about a month ago and it' has gone from bad to worse. I have cracks that just show up. I'm not talking about a little crack; I'm talking about from just below the windshield all the way to the edge of the dashboard above the instrument cluster. The latest one wasn't there on Friday night when I parked the truck but, it was there when I got back into it Saturday morning. It goes from the front (just below the windshield) above the passenger side air bag and glove box, all the way to the air bag. It looks like sh*t!
Bought this truck used in 2006, dash only had one long crack in it, from front to back, in about a year it looked like a shattered piece of glass, pieces of the dash have fallen down in behind the dash! I have a replacement dash, top half, DODGE dealership wanted $700.00, told me they would have to drop the entire dash-board and it would take about 8 hours. Hmmm yeah...right! I bought a dash cover from Cover King just to cover it up. With so so many of these going to crap, why don't they (Chrysler/Dodge) do something about it?? Goes to show how much they stand behind their product huh? I will never have another Dodge Truck, yes because of this dash problem that Dodge refuses to face up too, cheap a$$ material and brittle plastic. Thank you Chrysler/DODGE for making such a nice piece!

Same issue as everyone here. Cracked dash. A basketball sized hole right over the steering wheel, and a ton of more cracks all over. Tried to sell the truck the other day (trade-in) and because of the dash, they wouldn't even give me a value. So now what do I do with it?
I bought my 2001 dodge ram 1500 in 2005. I had no problems with it UNTIL the dash cracked and it continued to crack and now it's a big mess. I think with as many problems that have occured with the dashes from the dodge trucks, they (dodge co.) should replace them FREE of charge to the loyal customers. I think that would be fair and it may help with the bad rep they are getting for not backing up their product. If Dodge Co. values their customers they need to prove it! OR make their products less cheap made.
Love my truck but not happy with the fact that the dash board cracked straight across. It is an eye sore and it keeps getting bigger. I brought the car used and a few months later I noticed the crack.
Dash started to crack around 2 years after I owned it. Dodge needs to recall them and pay for everything. Does anyone know of any replacement dashes at an excellent price?
loved my dodge ram until it started going to sh*t. started with the clear coat then dash started cracking. tried to glue it back together and that worked for a minute. then got as many new cracks as the ones i glued. my dash looked like a road map until I closed my door the other day and the whole @#$%&*! thing caved in. waiting now for something else to happen. hey dodge you can't polish a turd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is bull. I also have a 91 convertible from FL., it`s dashboard isn't cracked. Why should anyone buy a new car or truck. The older ones were built better and stronger.
You know at least Toyota has stepped to the plate. My next truck will be a Toyota, I will drive this dodge until then...with a sign in the window asking everyone to "Look at my Crack!!!" .....And think twice about dodge.
Well, I'm glad to be in such grand company. My dash started cracking before I bought it back in 3/2009 but now the cracks are "HOLES". It's efffing ridiculous that Dodge won't help. I won't have another. This by the way is acting as the Cherry on top of the Sh*t Sundae I had when only one month after purchase, the Transmission went out.....$2500.00 later I'm driving a truck with huge craters in the dash. REALLY SUX!!!
I have noticed a number of complaints about the dash breaking on the Ram pickups. I only have 59000 miles on my pickup but the dash has huge cracks in it. I just sold my 1989 Chev. K10 pickup without a problem with the interior. What is up with the Dodge Dash?
at first I thought that this was an isolated occurrence, but it seems everyone with this truck has the same problem, my dash has new crack almost everyday it seems, this is ridiculous, I've tried glue and it cracks in a new place plus it looks like sh*t. I don't want to replace it with a new piece of crap, this really needs to be addressed by dodge but i'm sure it won't be, guess i'll just have to go to Chevy or ford next time!
I thought this was more of an isolated incident at the time due to living in New Mexico with hot, dry summers. Once I saw how prevalent this is, it became obvious that it is a materials issue that Dodge should have corrected. I won't buy another Dodge, but that would be the case even without this problem.
Called dodge dealer they said it would be $1000. to replace the dash ! went to junk yard and all the 2001 dodges had the same problem ! All cracked ! not one good dash in the bunch ! No wonder they had to take money from the tax payers ! Hope dodge goes the way of the etzel ! Never buy another one ! F*ck dodge ! What a bunch of f*cking losers ! I will tell everyone i know to stay away from dodge products !! And the dealers are sh*t ! Rude as f*ck to me ! Dodge sucks ass !!!!!!
The company really should pay to fix this problem do to a defect in the materials used to make the dash.i have two basketball size holes in the dash that i covered up with a dash pad.
