| Driving at approxiately 35 mph one of the defroster vents broke and fell into the ductwork. later that day noticed the dash had cracked. as this problem has just started on my truck i have seen from other dodge rams where this will progress and the dash will fall in, damaging wires and circuits. this is a potential fire hazard as well as possibly causing systems such as headlights, etc. to stop working when needed most. dodge informed me that if they looked at the dash, and i decided not to pay to fix the dash, they would charge me $85 for their time. that is not acceptable on so many levels. dodge should be forced to do something about this. | |||

| I have a 2005 dodge ram 1500 truck, and have had an issue that started as just a starting problem, it would take a few tries to start the truck; and no dealer or private mechanic could tell me what was the problem, even though there was an engine light on. the problem recently got more severe, and dangerous, i was driving to work and after finally starting and driving for a few miles, the engine just turned off; right in the middle of the road, no brakes, no engine, no steering....the key was turned in the on position and the air and radio was still working but the engine was off; upon searching for a solution to this problem online, i came upon a link that the nhtsa was looking into the matter, because this problem seems to be fairly widespread based on an internet search, so i thought i would send this in to see if there was any new info, or if there could be a solution to this dangerous issue. thanks. | |||
