2002 DODGE RAM QUAD CAB Complaints

2002 DODGE RAM 1500 QUAD CAB PU. CRACKED DASHBOARD. SHARP EDGES COULD BE A SERIOUS ISSUE. ALSO, THE SUN VISORS FALL DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY CAUSING TEMPORARY LIMITED VISIBILITY. *TR

2002 DODGE RAM 1500 QUAD CAB HAS A SURGING PROBLEM AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND IT IS READ AS TRANSMISSION FLUID PRESSURE SENSOR. THIS WAS REPLACED WITH A FACTORY SENSOR AND WITHIN 2 WEEKS IT DID IT AGAIN. AFTER 200 MILES THE LIGHT WENT OUT AND THE SURGING STOPPED ONLY TO START AND STOP REPEATEDLY UP TO THIS DATE, 8/23/2010. HOW CAN A SENSOR REPAIR ITSELF? IMPOSSIBLE! MILEAGE AT FIRST CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS LESS THAN 100,000. ALSO DASH IS CRACKED TO A COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE LEVEL FOR THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE AND MILEAGE ON DASH AT 138,000 WITH CARE TAKEN TO KEEP IT CLEAN AND CONDITIONED. CRACKS BEGAN AT 85,000 MILES. WIPERS WHEN OPERATING ON HIGH WILL LOWER SPEED AND WILL CONTINUE TO CHANGE FROM HIGH TO LOW INTERMITTENTLY UNLESS THEY ARE TURNED OFF AND TURNED BACK ON SEVERAL TIMES. DO NOT CONSIDER THIS SAFE IN ANY WAY. INTERMITTENT WIPER USE WITH DELAY FEATURE SEEMS TO BE COMPLETELY OKAY. AIR CONDITIONER WILL ONLY BLOW COLD AIR ON DRIVER'S SIDE AND BLOWS WARM AIR ON PASSENGER SIDE. AFTER 45 MINUTES OF A/C USE, ROARING SOUND ISSUES FROM THE VENTS AND A GRADUAL DECREASE IN ALL AIR BEGINS UNTIL ONLY WISPS OF AIR ESCAPES FROM DRIVER SIDE VENTS.

2002 DODGE QUAD CAB 1500 THE DASH IS FALLING APART. IT HAS SEVERAL CRACKS AND THE VENTS GRATES ARE FALLING CREATING JAGGED EDGES WHICH COULD EFFECT AIR BAG SAFETY AND POTENTIAL WIRING DAMAGE. *TR

THE DASH ON MY 2002 DODGE RAM 1500 IS CRACKING AND FALLING APART. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD IF THE TRUCK IS IN AN ACCIDENT, SHARP PIECES OF PLASTIC COULD INJURY PEOPLE IN THE TRUCK AND INTERFERE WITH THE AIRBAGS. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHER REPORTS JUST LIKE MINE ON THE INTERNET BUT DODGE WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BUT CHARGE THE CUSTOMER APPROXIMATELY $800.00 TO REPLACE IT. *TR

TOOK TRUCK TO DEALER BECAUSE THE HEADLIGHTS, TAILLIGHTS WERE GOING ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY WHETHER THE LIGHT SWITCH WAS ON OF OFF AND THE KEY WAS IN THE RUN POSITION (STARTED OR NOT) AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD TURN OFF WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I ABOUT HAD A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT WHEN I FOUND OUT THE WIPERS QUIT WORKING, IMAGINE THAT! TOOK MY 2002 DODGE RAM 4X4, 3.7L QUAD CAB SPORT TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE PDC (POWER DISTRIBUTION CENTER (FUSE BOX)) THAT THEY ARE PRONE TO CORROSION AND THEY HAVE REPLACED MANY OF THEM. WHY NO RECALL WHEN MANY LIVES ARE AT STAKE HERE AND SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH THESE FOUND? COULD HAVE BEEN ME, AND I HAVE 3 CHILDREN THAT DEPEND ON ME, SO CHRYSLER OWN UP TO IT AND DO THE RIGHT THING. *TR

2002 DODGE RAM 1500 . CRACKED DASHBOARD . DASH IS CRACKING SO BAD THAT IT IS STARTING TO GET HOLES . FALLING PLASTIC WITH JAGGED EDGES . EXPOSING WIRES THAT COULD POSSIBLE CAUSE SHORTS OR FIRES . *TR

I OWN A '02 DODGE RAM 1500 QUAD CAB. DASH IS CRACKING WHILE DRIVING, ONCE I HIT A POT HOLE, A PIECE FLEW OFF AND HIT ME IN THE FACE. I WAS LUCKY THAT NO ONE WAS TRAVELING FROM THE OTHER DIRECTION. I COULD HAVE BEEN IN A HEAD ON COLLISION BECAUSE I JERK THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT WHEN THE PIECE HIT ME UNDER MY RIGHT EYE. I AM CONCERN THAT THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD THAN A COSMETIC PROBLEM. I BOUGHT A DASH COVER SO I WOULD NOT GET HIT AGAIN, BUT THE WEIGHT SEEMS TO HAVE ACCELERATED THE CRACKING. THE DASH PART COST OVER $700 AND IS MADE OF THE SAME MATERIAL AND THE PROCESS WILL REPEAT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE!! PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM, THANK YOU. *TR

I HAD TO REPLACE THE UPPER AND CONTROL ARMS ( BOTH SIDES) BECAUSE THE TIRES WERE WEARING UNEVEN. I DO NOT DRIVE THIS PICK-UP OFF ROAD! IF YOU LOOK AT THE LACK OF SIZE TO THE BALL JOINTS, IT IS AMAZING THEY LASTED 3 YEARS. *TR

I HAD TO REPLACE BOTH SIDE MIRRORS BECAUSE OF THE INSIDE SUPPORT BROKE OFF. THEY BROKE ABOUT A MONTH APART. LEFT MIRROR FIRST AND THEN THE RIGHT SIDE. *TR

I HAVE A 2002 QUAD CAB 1500 AND THE DASH HAS CRACKED IN SEVERAL PLACES. I NOW HAS A CRACK ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE DASH.(WINDSHIELD TO THE GLOVE BOX) I OWN A 1973 DODGE DART AND THE DASH IS PERFECT. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY 2002 DODGE 1500? *TR
