I was writing this complaint about the dashboards on Dodge ram pickups in the 94-02 model years. I have a 1997 Dodge Ram 2500 that has had multiple cracks in the dashboard with a series forming a hole at the base of the windshield. My VIN was no longer secured to the dashboard. I have taken the truck to Dodge, and they told me that they would replace it, but I would be out of pocket. There were multiple people I knew that have had the exact problem as well.
