I had a heater core leak and I could not afford to take it to a shop to have it fixed. I decided to order the parts and replace it myself. I down loaded a video on how to replace the heater core, but the video never mentioned the fact that the dash was made of defective plastic and that it would disintegrate while I was removing it and then replacing it. It is practically unusable. If not for epoxy resin's JB Weld I would not be able to use it at all. I have never seen anything like it. The light stress fractures became huge breaks and huge chunks of plastic shards came completely off and fell to the floor as I removed and reinstalled the dash. I fear what would happen in an accident. Talk about shrapnel. If I live I will file a suit against Dodge like they have never seen filed. This is a nightmare. Dodge tough NY butt.
