2000 Dodge Ram 1500 complaints

DASH COVER HAS SELF DESTRUCTED INTO MANY JAGGED AND BROKEN PIECES. I HAVE HAD PIECES DROP INTO THE DASH AND MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS THAT IN EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT THIS WILL COME LOOSE WITH IMPACT OR BE PROPELLED BY THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAGS AND BECOME MISSILES INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

2000 DODGE RAM 1500 TRUCK. CONSUMER WRITES REGARDING CRACKS IN THE VEHICLE DASHBOARD *TGW

THE DASH ON MY 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 PICKUP STARTED CRACKING A FEW YEARS AGO. THE CRACKS HAVE MANAGED TO MEET AND NOW ENTIRE SHARDS OF SHARP HARD PLASTIC ARE FALLING INTO MY DASH AND ALSO PROTRUDING FROM MY DASH. THEY COULD EASILY INJURE SOMEONE. I HAVE READ IN MANY FORUMS THAT THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE FOR THIS MODEL TRUCK. I HAVE NOT REPLACED THE DASH YET BECAUSE I DO NOT KNOW IF THE REPLACEMENT DASH WOULD HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM SINCE THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 SLT HAS BEEN SLOWLY CRACKING FOR THE PAST 6 YEARS OR SO AND HAS NOW A SIZEABLE HOLE FROM A PIECE BREAKING OFF. MY CONCERN IS THE "DRY INSULATION" THAT CAUSES DUST TO FILTER INTO MY VENTILATION SYSTEM AND BLOWS INTO THE CAB FOR ME AND MY PASSENGERS TO BREATH. NOT HEALTHY AT ALL. THIS PRODUCT SHOULD BE RECALLED OR PAID FOR A REPLACEMENT. THERE IS NO SOLUTION OTHER THAN TO REPLACE. *TR

I BOUGHT MY 2000 DODGE RAM BRAND NEW. ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO I NOTICED SOME SMALL CRACKS IN THE DASH, THEN SOME TIME LAST YEAR, THE DASH STARTED COLLAPSING IN HUGE SECTIONS. I THEN STARTED HAVING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. I CHECKED WITH MY MECHANIC AND HE SAID IT IS A RESULT OF THE SUN HITTING THE WIRES THROUGH THE HOLES IN THE DASH. I THEN BOUGHT A DASH COVER TO STOP ANY FURTHER SUN DAMAGE BUT CONTINUE TO HAVE INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. IT HAS GOTTEN TO WHERE IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. *TR

DASHBOARD FAILURE ON 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 TRUCK. THE DASHBOARD HAS FRACTURES / CRACKS THAT PROPAGATE TO AIRBAG AREA PASSENGER SIDE. I HAVE SHUT AIRBAG OFF ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IN FEAR OF AIRBAG IGNITION AND FLYING SHARDS OF HARD PLASTIC COMING FROM DECOMPOSING DASH. IT IS APPARENT THAT THIS PLASTIC MATERIAL IS DEFECTIVE CONSIDERING THE VEHICLE IS GARAGED AND HAS ONLY 46,000 MILES ON IT'S OD. DASH AREA ON DRIVERS SIDE HAS COMPLETELY FRACTURED WITH PIECES BEGINNING TO DISLODGE AND FALL INTO WIRING HARNESS ABOVE STEERING AREA. FEAR IS CHAFFING OCCURRING AT WIRE HARNESS LOCATIONS FROM DISLODGED PLASTIC SHARDS AND CREATING THE POTENTIAL FOR ELECTRICAL INTERIOR FIRE. *TR

DASH OF 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 CRACKING IN SEVERAL AREAS AND IS NOW FALLING APART CAUSING LOOSE PIECES TO BECOME LODGED BELOW THE DASH AREA THAT COULD INTERFERE WITH THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG OR BECOME FLYING PIECES IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR

`LIKE THOUSANDS OF OTHER DODGE RAM OWNERS, I HAVE A SEVERELY CRACKING AND COLLAPSED DASHBOARD IN MY 2000 RAM 1500. THE CRACKING STARTED AROUND 60KMI AND HAD STARTED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ORIGINATING FROM THE BOLTS SECURING THE UPPER DASH TO THE INSIDE FIREWALL. EVENTUALLY A CRACK WILL FORM FROM ALL OF THE BOLTS, WITH SOME CRACK CONNECTING WITH OTHERS CAUSING PIECES OF THE DASH TO COLLAPSE. ONCE THIS HAPPENS, THE UPPER (5) BOLTS WILL BE PROVIDING NO SUPPORT TO ANY PART OF THE DASH, EXCEPT FOR THOSE PIECES DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO THE BOLTS. THIS VEHICLE WAS ASSEMBLED IN THE MEXICO PLANT. I BELIEVE THAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE INSTALLATION. MY THEORY IS THAT WHEN THE DASH IS ORIGINALLY INSTALLED, THE DASH IS RESTED UPON (2) BOLTS AT THE BOTTOM UNDER THE SIDE KICKPLATES AND THEN THE TOP (5) ARE USED TO BRING THE DASH INTO ITS FINAL RESTING POSITION. WHILE DOING THIS, THERE MAY STILL BE RESIDUAL FORCES ON THOSE TOP BOLTS PULLING THE DASH DOWN EVEN AFTER THE (2) LOWER BOLTS ARE TIGHTENED. THE PROCEDURE SHOULD BE TO PUSH OR HOLD THE DASH IN PLACE UNTIL THE LOWER (2) BOLTS ARE TIGHTENED AND THEN THE TOP (5) BOLTS ARE THERE ONLY TO SECURE THE UPPER DASH ONLY. I WOULD LIKE TO RECOMMEND INSTALLING A CENTER SHIMMY BRACE THAT WOULD BE USED TO POSITION THE ASSEMBLY IN THE FINAL RESTING POSITION THAT WOULD CONNECT BETWEEN THE DASH SUBFRAME AND THE INSIDE FIREWALL. ONCE IN POSITION THE DASH THE LOWER (2) BOLTS CAN BE TORQUED. THEN THE (5) TOP BOLTS WOULD NOT BE ATTEMPTING TO HOLD THE DASH IN P

THE FRONT COVER AND TOP OF THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 HAS BEEN SLOWLY FALLING APART OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS. I HAVE REMOVED THE FRONT INSTRUMENT COVER DUE TO DANGEROUS SHARP EDGES. THE TOP OF THE DASH HAS SPLIT INTO FOUR SECTIONS WITH NUMEROUS CRACKS RADIATING FROM THE BOLTS NEAR THE WINDSHIELD. HAD A 6"X10" SECTION OF THE TOP DASH POP OUT AND LAND IN MY LAP WHEN I HIT A POTHOLE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 4X4 TRUCK ON INTERSTATE GOING 70 MPH AND STARTED TO SLOW DOWN DUE TO EXIT TRAFFIC. WHEN I APPLIED MY BRAKES MY TRUCK WENT INTO ACCELERATION. NO CRUISE WAS ON. KEPT APPLYING BRAKES AND TRUCK KEPT ACCELERATION. KEPT APPLYING BRAKES AND FINALLY GOT SPEED DOWN TO 20 MPH. I'M IN PANIC MODE AND NOT KNOWING WHAT TO DO I PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK AND THEN TURNED THE KEY OFF. BRAKES SMOKED BADLY. GOT OUT OF TRUCK TO SEE PROBLEM AND THE THROTTLE WAS STUCK. STARTED TRUCK UP AGAIN AND IT DID THE SAME THING BUT THIS TIME PUT GEAR IN NEUTRAL AND TURNED KEY OFF. UNSTUCK THROTTLE AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO GET TRUCK TO A MECHANIC. THEY CHECKED THE THROTTLE KIT AND IT SEEMED OK (IT WAS NOT ONE THAT WAS ON A RECALL LIST). THE MECHANIC DIDN'T REALLY KNOW WHAT CAUSED PROBLEM. THEY PUT A NEW KIT IN AND CLEANED FUEL INJECTORS AND IT HAS BEEN RUNNING OK. FORTUNATELY I WAS ON INTERSTATE HWY. IF I HAD BEEN ANYWHERE ELSE I FEEL CERTAIN I WOULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THIS CAUGHT ME BY TOTAL SURPRISE AND NOT KNOWING HOW TO HANDLE A VEHICLE IN THIS SITUATION I FEEL I WAS PRETTY LUCKY THAT I DIDN'T BURN MY BRAKES UP, BLOW MY TRANSMISSION OR GET KILLED. I WISH I KNEW WHAT REALLY CAUSED THIS PROBLEM. *TR

THE DASH ON MY DODGE RAM 1500 IS COMPLETLY FALLING APART. THIS STARTED WHEN THIS TRUCK HAD 30,000 MILES BUT NOW THE WIRING ,CONTROLING RADIO,SPEAKERS LIGHTS, ETC IS BEING AFFECTED - THIS HAS NOW BECAME A SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 DODGE RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE WAS INVOLVED IN A MINOR CRASH WHILE DRIVING UP A HILL. THE BOTTOM OF THE FRONT BUMPER FELL ON THE ROAD AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO STOP. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER WAS INJURED. SHE SUFFERED A DISLOCATED BROKEN STERNUM. THE POLICE RESPONDED BUT DID NOT FILE A REPORT. THE OWNER DISCOVERED THAT THE PASSENGER AND THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT SEAT BELTS HAD ALSO FAILED DURING THE CRASH. THE BELTS DID NOT LOCK IN PLACE. THE OWNER BELIEVED THAT THE REASON FOR THE PASSENGER WAS INJURED WAS BECAUSE THE SEAT BELTS FAILED TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO REPLACED BOTH SEAT BELTS AT CHRYSLERS EXPENSE. THE MECHANIC TESTED THE NEW BELTS AND THE NEW DRIVERS SIDE BELT WAS ALSO DEFECTIVE AND WOULD NOT LOCK. THE DEALER ORDERED ANOTHER SEAT BELT AND IT APPEARED TO FUNCTION NORMALLY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 109,795. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 120,000. THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING, HE STRUCK A SAND HILL. THE VEHICLE RECEIVED MINIMAL DAMAGE AND DID NOT HINDER DRIVABILITY. UPDATED 11/17/10

THE DASHBOARD OF MY 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 HAS BEEN SLOWLY CRACKING AND CAVING IN OVER THE PAST 4 YEARS. I FEAR THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT WILL AFFECT THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAGS AND ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS EXPOSED ARE ALSO A HAZARD. DODGE CHRYSLER IS WELL AWARE OF THIS DEFECT AND NEEDS TO FIX THESE PICKUPS. WE PAID FAIR MARKET FOR THEM AND NOW WE CAN'T EVEN SELL AN OTHERWISE BEAUTIFUL TRUCK. *TR

MY DODGE TRUCK DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 65 ALL GAUGES ZERO OUT AND THE NO BUS READING IS DISPLAYED ON THE ODOMETER READOUT THE TRUCK IS UNRESPONSIVE LOSING POWER ALL WARNING LIGHTS ARE DISPLAYED ON INSTRUMENT PANEL.

2000 DODGE RAM 1500 -DEC 2009 - 47000 MILE. NO INDICATION OF BRAKE ISSUES UNTIL HITTING THEM HARD TO AVOID CAR THAT RAN A RED LIGHT. BRAKE LINE FROM MASTER CYLINDER TO RWAL UNIT FAILED (PINHOLE LEAK), BUT MANAGED TO AVOID COLLISION. DROVE HOME (SLOWLY) AND FABRICATED/INSTALLED REPLACEMENT SECTION (ABOUT 16" LONG). AFTER BLEEDING BRAKES - DROVE TRUCK NORMALLY UNTIL JUNE 2010. THEN, WITH NO WARNING, THE BRAKES AGAIN FAILED IN A PARKING LOT STOP. FOUND THE LEAK IN THE REAR SECTION OF THE LINE RUNNING FROM FRONT TO REAR.DEALER ESTIMATE TO REPLACE ALL HARD LINES IS $1000. WHO CAN AFFORD THAT ?? SO, I WILL BE SPENDING MANY HOURS OF MY OWN TIME TO FIX THE PROBLEM CAUSED BY CHEAP IMPORTED CHINESE STEEL. THANKS BILL CLINTON !! I HAVE OTHER "GOOD AMERICAN CARS" THAT ARE 40+ YEARS OLD AND 100K+ MILES WITH THE OEM LINES STILL GOOD. THESE NEW VEHICLES SUCK !!! *TR

SEVERELY CRACKED DASHBOARD...CUT THUMB / HAND. *TR

HAD VEHICLE INSPECTED PRIOR TO GETTING FRONT END ALIGNMENT AT TIRE DISCOUNTERS. THEY NOTICED A BULGE ON THE INSIDE SIDEWALL. KELLY TIRE LESS THAN 30 DAYS OLD. THEY TRIED TO TELL ME THAT THE BULGE WAS FROM SOMEONE HITTING A POT HOLE TO HARD. I THINK THAT IT IS A DEFECTIVE TIRE AND THEY JUST DID NOT WANT TO TAKE CARE OF IT. I WAS TOLD THAT ALL THE TIRE THAT WERE PURCHASED AT A GOODYEAR RETAILER WERE 2NDS WITH KNOWN DEFECTS. I CONTACTED A GOODYEAR RETAILER WHERE I LIVE AND THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE THEM UNLESS I WAS THE ORIGINAL PURCHASER WITH THE RECEIPT. *TR

I HAVE A 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 EXTENDED CAB AND THE HOOD UNEXPECTEDLY FLEW UP GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND SMASHED MY WINDOW AND THE HOOD IS DESTROYED. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME, VERY VERY DANGEROUS, FOR ME AND THE DRIVERS BEHIND ME. THE GRILL FLEW OFF AND POSSIBLY DAMAGED THE CARS BEHIND AND NEXT TO ME. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS A COUPLE YEARS AGO AND I WAS VERY LUCKY IT WAS NOT A BUSY ROAD AND I WAS ONLY GOING ABUT 35-45 MPH. TO CORRECT IT I HAD TO BUY A NEW HOOD,GRILL AND ALL PARTS PERTAINING TO THE HOOD REPLACEMENT....OH ALSO A NEW WINDSHIELD. THANKS DODGE! *TR

MY DASH BOARD STARTED CRACKING AND THEN JUST COLLAPSED THE PIECES ARE VERY SHARP AND CONTINUE TO FALL OFF

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 DODGE RAM 1500. WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS OF 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE CONTACT COULD NOT RECALL THE DETAILS OF THE CRASH SINCE HE WAS UNCONSCIOUS. HE WAS TAKEN TO A HOSPITAL WHERE HE LATER BECAME CONSCIOUS AND WAS ADVISED BY A STATE TROOPER THAT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY UPON IMPACT. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED.

THE WHOLE DASH ON MY 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 HAS CAVED IN LEAVING JAGGED EDGES EVERYWHERE AND MY ELECTRICAL WIRES EXPOSED. SMALLER PIECES SOMETIMES FALL INTO THE AIR VENTS AND BLOW OUT INTO MY FACE. THE PROBLEM STARTED WITH CRACKS AND BY NOVEMBER 2008, THE DASH WAS ALMOST COMPLETELY GONE. *TR

2000 DODGE RAM 1500 WITH A DISINTEGRATING DASH. WE BOUGHT IT USED WITH A TINY CRACK IN THE DASH, HAD NO IDEA IT WAS SUCH A MAJOR PROBLEM. IN A FEW SHORT MONTHS, THE DASH HAS STARTED DISINTEGRATING BEFORE OUR EYES. LARGE JAGGED CHUNKS ARE BREAKING OFF, OPENING UP THE WHOLE DASH, EVEN AROUND THE AIR BAGS. I AM CONCERNED THAT IF THERE IS A CRASH, THE AIR BAGS EITHER WONT WORK OR THE DASH WILL BREAK OFF INTO A MILLION SHARDS AND KILL US. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! MY SON ACTUALLY CUT HIS FINGER PICKING UP SOMETHING FROM THE DASH THE OTHER DAY! *TR

I OWN A 2000 DODGE RAM 1500 4X4. THE DASH BOARD IS CRACKING. IF THIS CONTINUES THE DASH WILL FALL DOWN. I BELIEVE DODGE SHOULD RECALL THESE TRUCKS & REPAIR THEM... *TR

LIKE THOUSANDS OF OTHER DODGE RAM OWNERS, I HAVE A COLLAPSED DASHBOARD IN MY 2000 MODEL RAM. THE TRUCK IS IN ABSOLUTE PERFECT SHAPE WITH ONLY 45,000 MILES... EXCEPT FOR THE SHARDS OF PLASTIC THAT CUT MY WRIST WHEN I WAS RETRIEVING A PAPER OFF THE DASHBOARD. I SURE NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE INJURED WHILE SITTING IN A STATIONARY TRUCK IN MY DRIVEWAY. SURELY IT'S NOT A SAFE SITUATION TO HAVE A COLLAPSED DASHBOARD OVER SO MANY ELECTRICAL WIRES AND AIR BAGS. *TR

DODGE DASHBOARD CRACKED AND DISINTEGRATED. 2000 RAM 1500 5.2 LITER. THE WHOLE DASH FELL APART. SAFETY ISSUES ARE THE SHARP JAGGED RAZOR SHARP EDGES, AND STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF DASH ASSEMBLY. FUNCTION OF AIR BAG IS IN QUESTION. I TOOK AFTER MARKET DASH COVER, USED IT FOR A MOLD AND LAID UP A NEW DASH WITH FIBER GLASS. WILL NOT PURCHASE NEW/USED DASH BOARD AS THE PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE CHRONIC, POOR QUALITY ABS IS THE CAUSE. WILL NOT RISK A REPEAT INCIDENT. *TR

BOUGHT USED 2000 DODGE RAM 4X4 THIS PAST SUMMER. IT ONLY HAS 61,000 MILES ON IT. ABOUT THREE MONTHS AFTER BUYING IT, WE NOTICED A VERY LARGE CRACK IN THE CENTER OF THE DASHBOARD GOING FROM WINDOW TO EDGE OF FRONT. I HAD READ ABOUT THIS FAULT WITH THIS MODEL TRUCK, BUT WHEN WE BOUGHT IT, IT HAD NO CRACK. I AM AFRAID FOR OUR SAFETY NOW. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL AS IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM! BUT, OF COURSE, DODGE WON'T RECALL ANYTHING.........LIKE THE DEFECTIVE BALL JOINTS, FRONT ENDS, ETC. *TR

I BOUGHT A USED 200 DODGE RAM 1500 4X4 AND THE DASH HAS A HOLE IN IT AND IS CAVING IN TO THE DASH ITSELF I BELIEVE IF I WERE IN A ACCIDENT THAT PARTS FROM THE DASH WOULD INJURE SOMEONE AS THEY ARE ALREADY BROKEN. *TR

DODGE RAM 1500 DASHBOARD CRACKED TO THE POINT AIRBAGS WOULD NOT WORK PROPERLY OR AT THE VERY LEAST THROW PLASTIC SHARDS AND PARTS THAT COULD INJURE OR KILL OCCUPANTS. DEALER WAS CONTACTED AT THE TIME FIRST CRACKS OCCURRED AND DID NOTHING.. WAS TOLD AT THAT TIME NOT COVERED BY MFG, EVEN THOUGH IT COULD BE SAFETY ISSUE.

THEY SHOULD BE REPLACED AT NO COST TO US .SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT AND IT MAKES ME WONDER IF THE AIRBAGS WILL EVEN WORK AND IF THEY DO WILL PIECES OF THE DASH BRAKE OFF AND HIT SOMEONE IN THE FACE. CHRYSLER SHOULD REPLACE THE DASHES BEFORE SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAPPENS.IM THING ABOUT GETTING A NEW TRUCK, BUT IF CHRYSLER DOESN'T FIX THE DASHES IT WONT BE A DODGE. *TR
