Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 1997 dodge ram 1500 4x4 sport. three years ago i noticed cracks forming on the top of the dashboard. since then the cracks have worsened to the point that large pieces were about to fall off. i heard recent reports that when the inside of the dashboard was exposed that electrical problems occurred, lost lights, etc. i have heard of these pieces falling in such a way that the gas pedal waslocked in a position. i am concerned about my safety in the truck.) i had gotten a quote to have the dashboard replaced last year but it was too expensive.*ak
