From what i understand its cause by shrinkage... A guy i know had his crack right in front of him... It was totally fine then all the sudden it cracked, he said it sounded like an explosion. The crack didnt spread like a windshield would... It just blew apart like pulling a fault line from both sides.
I dont know if Dodge used crappy materials, baked the plastic too long, or what. All i know is they WONT admit they have a problem!

OK I may as well add my two cents: 99- 2500- 216,000miles, dash is not cracked one one place it is junked all over
