No cracks anywhere on mine - '95 agate color - always parked outside. I don't understand why some crack & splinter away and some hold up just fine. Did Dodge use different suppliers for these?

I have a '95. Mine cracked at about 160,000 miles. I've got 255,000 on it now, and the crack hasn't gotten worse.

Mine cracked at about 115K. Once it started it has really spread like crazy. I have 9 cracks, 1 is 13 inches long. The thing is completely destroyed now.
