Got a 96' with 260k miles and the dash is cracked pretty bad. Even the panel under the steering column has a couple of small cracks where the two screws are. Also the piece above the cup holders is broke too. Planning on a new dash and fiberglassing everthing else up.

138k miles, 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 Sport, 5.9 Cummins Turbo Diesel, Manual 6-Speed Transmission.

1st crack appeared 1 month ago. 2nd crack appeared 1 day ago. Seems very brittle. I suspect a little squeeze or bump and more cracks will appear.

02 with a tan dash and is cracked just about everywhere even got some holes. started cracking 4 or 5 years ago. Its the materials the supplier used. Yea dodge does need to do something about it but its like the fuel system on these truck they wont admit the carter fuel pump is defected they want to sell you the $400 kit to retro fit with an in tank model
