Warning!

The dash on my 1999 Dodge cracked so bad that the dash caused a short in the dash that was so bad the truck had to be totaled. Don't worry about hiding the crack, fix it even if you have to buy a new one.

My, new to me, 2003 is already cracking and if I can't stop it I will replace it.

Dodge has known about this problem since 1999 and has yet to any action to solve the problem.

And don't use armorall. It causes cracks because it seals the vinyl and dries it out.

One of those silver coated windshield sun deflectors goes a long way blocking the damage done by the sun on dashboards.I have one in all my vehicles.And it keeps the interior much cooler in the summer.
The dash pad in my '99 Dakota looks as good now as when I bought it.And I've never used that greasy kid stuff on it.
