DASHBOARD ON MY 1995 DODGE RAM TRUCK IS BADLY CRACKED. I AM CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF THE TRUCK. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND THE TRUCK HAS ALWAYS BEEN GARAGED. *JB

ABOUT A MONTH AGO MY DODGE RAM 1500 TRUCKS DASH BOARD CRACKED DOWN THE MIDDLE FROM THE WINDOW TO THE FRONT EDGE AND ALL WAY THROUGH, THEN EVERYDAY IT JUST STARTED CRACKING ALL OVER THE PLACE, TWO LARGE PIECES ARE COMPLETELY CRACKED OUT, LEAVING TWO HUGE HOLES. NOW I'VE A CRACK GOING FROM PASSENGER SIDE TO DRIVERS SIDE! I CALLED DODGE AND THEY SAID NO ON RECALL AND IT WOULD COST ME OUT OF MY POCKET ABOUT 400.00 TO REPLACE IT, ASIDE FROM THIS WHEN THE FIRST CRACK HAPPENED MY STEREO QUIT THE NEXT DAY AND MY AIR CONDITIONING! *TR

1995 DODGE RAM 1500 2X4 COMPLAINT: CRACKED DASH,CRACKED FROM DEFROST VENTS TO BEHIND THE CUP HOLDERS DEFECTIVE MANUFACTURING: MATERIAL/MOLD 10-8-00. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. THIS WAS THE FOURTH HEADLIGHT SWITCH THAT HAS BE PLACED IN THE VEHICLE. THE SWITCHES USUALLY LASTS FOR 3-4 WEEKS BEFORE FAILING. THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN ALERTED AND DETERMINED THERE WAS NOT A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE.

I OWN A 1995 DODGE RAM 1500 TRUCK. I AM IN THE CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS AND I USE MY TRUCK ON A DAILY BASIS TO WORK. I WAS WRITING TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I HAD A LOWER A-ARM WELD BREAK FROM THE FRAME ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. LUCKILY I WAS IN A PARKING LOT WHEN THE WELD BROKE AND NOT ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS WELD HOLDS THE BOTTOM OF THE WHOLE LEFT WHEEL ASSEMBLY IN PLACE . THIS IS A WELD THAT SHOULD NOT FAIL, AND I HAVE NEVER SEEN ONE FAIL. MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER NO HELP AND SAID THAT YOU DO NOT SERVICE THIS THERE IS NO PART NO FOR THIS PART AND IS MY PROBLEM. *JB

MY 1995 DODGE RAM 1500 BURNT UP-TOTALED-2 YEARS AGO. DEALER DID NOT, WOULD NOT, DO THE RECALL IN 3 YEARS OF ACCESS. NOT FINDING ANY REFERENCE FROM CHRYSLER OR YOU, I SUGGEST HAVING TALKED TO A MECHANIC 2 DAYS AGO, THERE ARE STILL MANY TRUCKS BURNING UP, WITH OR WITHOUT THE RECALL, THEREFORE THERE NEEDS A NEW CAMPAIGN, BUT ALSO CHECK INTO THE TOXICITY OF THE SITUATION. IT IS MELTING AND BURNING PVC'S AND OTHER PLASTICS, VERY TOXIC AND CANCER CAUSING. I AM FIGHTING TERMINAL CANCER ALSO, PROVEN TO BE LINKED TO THE DIOXINS, HEAVY METALS,AND VINYL CHLORIDES FOUND IN MELTING AND INCINERATING PVC'S. WHILE IT MIGHT NOT BE CONSIDERED YOUR FUNCTION, THE PROPER AGENCY NEEDS TO BE INFORMED SINCE THESE ARE CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES WHEN INCINERATED OR BURNED, AND PER THE TOXIC SUBSTANCE CONTROL ACT AND THE SARA LAWS AND THE 'PUBLIC'S RIGHT TO KNOW', CHRYSLER SHOULD HAVE INFORMED OF THE DANGERS AND RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH THE MELTING AND INCINERATING OF THE PVC'S AND OTHER PLASTICS WHEN USING THE BLOWER ON HIGH, AND/OR THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN OR THE WIRING IN THE DASH IS OVERHEATING GROSSLY. *NM

HELLO, I WOULD LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT MY 1995 DODGE RAM 1500 PICKUP. THE DASH IS CRACKED FROM OVER THE STEERING WHEEL ALL THE WAY TO THE WINDSHIELD. I AM AFRAID THAT IF I WERE TO BE IN AN ACCIDENT, THAT SOMETHING FROM THAT CRACK MY NOT LET MY AIRBAG DEPLOY. I ALSO HAVE A FRIEND WRECK HIS DODGE WITH A CRACK IN THE DASH AND THE AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY AT A 85 MPH. CRASH. I AM AFRAID FOR MY LIFE AND THE LIFE OF OTHERS WHO WOULD DRIVE MY TRUCK. *JB

THE GAS TANK FELL OFF THE VEHICLE. THE GAS LINE BROKE, SPILLING FUEL, AND THE METAL SHIELD WAS SCRAPING ON THE ROAD. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO FIRE.*AK
