2000 DODGE RAM 1500 Complaints

WHILE WARMING MY TRUCK UP ON A COLD MORNING I TURNED ON THE WINDSHIELD DEFROST ONCE THE TRUCK WAS WARM. I HEARD CRACKING AND POPPING. WHEN I TURNED THE DEFROST FAN OFF I NOTICED THE DASH HAD CRACKED INTO APPROX 24 PIECES CAUSING THE DASH TO FALL ONTO THE WIRES. WHEN I CONTACTED DODGE I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE ISSUE HOWEVER THERE HAD BEEN NO RECALL BUT THEY COULD REPLACE THE DASH FOR $900. I LOOKED AT MOLDED DASH OVERLAYS TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM BUT THERE IS NOTHING LEFT TO ADHERE IT TO. *TR
