Exclamation My Dash Cracked

My dash cracked on my car the other day.

I discovered a small crack on the dash area near the radio and HVAC (not the upper dash that goes to the windshield).

Is there something I can use the sort of "fill in" the crack? Like an interior bondo? I don't want this crack to spread.

Thats why i always use a lot of vinyl conditioner on my dash and always put up sun shades in my windows to protect my interior.

Re: My Dash Cracked

Why did it crack? What caused it to crack? I don't want it happening to either of our cars. Especially if the sun causes it to crack, because the silver one sits behind my sister's place of employment for hours and hours.
