Dodge Chrysler Cracking Dashboards Cracked Dash Problem On News Local 6 Orlando Florida
Prematurely cracking dashboards and dashes in Dodge, Chrysler vehicles is also a safety issue that can expose wiring to the sun which could melt and sharp plastic pieces of the dash can pierce wiring causing electrical faults. Additionally dash replacement in Dodge, Chrysler vehicles runs about $1
200.00 at most Dodge, Chrysler dealerships and until this story aired Chrysler would not cover any of the cracked or cracking dashes. Since this defect story aired, Chrysler seems to be handling claims on an inconsistant case by case bases usually offering to meet customers only half way on the repa
ir for this defect. The problems seem to be most common with Dodge Ram Trucks but have also affected Chrysler cars such as the Chrysler PT Cruiser.
There is growing debate over whether a recall will or should be issued, and even more debate over what's causing these problems "While some people poi
nt to the heat and the sun, others point to the map and see the problem persists in states where the heat and sun are not an issue and to the fact that all dashes in Florida are not reacting this way to the heat."

The plastic is obviously very thin and probably not flexible enough. Seems like some frames or chassis have some flex and tear the center apart hence the huge gaping holes.
who wants to adjust mirrors with their hands when they paid for power mirrors? regardless of where you say the wiring runs, someone's headlights still went out in result. someone else still had their gas pedal stick, another safety hazard. It's amazing how many excuses and apologies Chrysler owne
rs make for substandard vehicles.
sorry, Daimler actually improved and patched up a lot over at Chrysler, they were actually well worse off beforehand so don't try and blame Daimler. Chrysler was already going down hill and going to take huge hits reputationwise which is why it was sold off before the ship sank like now. The Germa
ns actually got scrwed by greedy American execs.
