02 1500, the plastic top cap on the dash turned into dust and crumbles. I bought a new one almost 3 years ago intending to paint it and install. Got po'ed with the whole thing and did nothing. Last year I got a dash mat and installed it, looks ok and hides the missing plastic trim. Today I noticed on the passenger side corner of the dash running from the side defroster vent to the blow out panel for the passenger airbag there is a huge crack right across there. Just as clean a break as can be.

I'm sort of expecting the d-side to do the same anytime now. Last week I got the trim piece out to go about painting it and set it in. Seeing that this turd has yet to finish falling apart I opted to put it away again.
