Prevalence/Frequency of occurence of cracked dash
So we are considering adding an LR3 to our D2 fleet, but the cracked dash is a deal killer for us, so I have several questions for experienced LR3 owners:
- Are/were there specific years that this did or did not occur?
- Did any of dash cracks appear during warranty periods such that LR replaced the dash? if so did they re-appear on the replacement
- Have any of the early models made it to 2018 without dash cracks?
- Is there a way to prevent them from cracking? I have heard that even low mileage garage kept models have dash cracks

My 07 has no cracks. PO parked it outside and I park in my garage although it does spend time outside a lot. I made a cover from a pattern I took from one of my friends that had an original cover for his dash but mine does not cover the hump at the centre console. I think that might be saving me as I am convinced that exposure is a contributing factor
