 My dashboard started cracking shortly after i purchased this truck. now the dash is cracked in a way that if i touch it or if any weight is up on it, it will collapse on itself. the dealer told me that i would have to file a complaint regarding it or pay them a significant amount to remove and replace the dash with a similar dashboard, which may crack and break apart in the future as well. after speaking to the dealer i went to touch the dash, it buckled and pinched my hand from one of the cracks. pulling my hand up the dash then layered itself. *tr

 Dodge ram 1500 pickups have two expensive/serious problems. (1) the air-conditioner evaporators under the dash fail and (2) the dash itself cracks in several places, so when the ac repairs (involving dash removal) take place, the mechanic tells you he/she has to also replace the dash...which is true. many many complaints of dash cover failures in dodge ram 1500 and other similar vehicles. repairs run $1200 or more. dash should be a recall item. *tr

 I own a 2000 dodge ram 1500 truck. i purchased it used. when i puchased my truck the dashboard had two hierline cracks in it and i thought nothing about it. over the last 8 months, my dashboard has been falling apart. now i have cracks all over it and pieces coming off. there is a 10 hole on the drivers side. it is cavening in a little more everyday. i have done nothing to cause this problem. my father informed me of an orlando, fl news station (local 6) that has done an investigation on this problem and though their website and news articles i was directed here. i'm reporting my problem so i can have it documented.

 I have a 2000 dodge pickup 1500 and my dashboard is crack, large pieces have broken off. wire, air vents and other items are exposed in the open and to the sun. i have experience problems with my air condition and radio speakers. i noticed that my dashboard had cracks 5 years ago, i called and email dodge to informed them of my situation, but they had no recalls and no manufacturing defects that been reported for this problem. but i researched the internet and found many websites stating their concerns and issues with their dashboard on dodge pickups. i hope this problem can be resolved and that dodge will take responsibility and acknowledge their mistake with the dashboard for dodge pickups. *tr

 Tl*the contact owns a 2000 dodge ram 1500. after putting 400 miles on the vehicle, it began overheating while driving uphill at an unknown speed. the vehicle was taken to the dealer and they replaced the transmission cap. when the windows were rolled down, they would not go back up. in addition, the headlights would dim when the windows were rolled up and down. while driving between 5-10 mph uphill, the exhaust system fell off the vehicle. the bolts were not properly tightened. the cd changer had to be replaced after failing twice. there was also a grinding noise in the transmission when the shifter was placed into gear, and there was a hesitation when placing the gear into reverse or drive. the transmission has been rebuilt, but the vehicle is still grinding and hesitating when placed into gear, drive, or reverse. on may 22, 2008, the vehicle will be taken to the dealer for the driveshaft to be replaced in hopes that the grinding will cease. the current mileage was 73,500 and failure mileage was 400.
