This Problem Across All Years
The day after I bought this vehicle it had to go directly back because of the catalytic converter. I was told they replaced it but did not show me the proof nor did they give me a valid warranty card. There is something wrong with the electrical system everything flickers and it just sounds really bad. The driver side passenger side window broke because it's made of plastic. The front both passenger and driver side door handles broke off. I had to Jerry rig it. And the reason I think this would be dangerous is if we were to need to get out of the car we would not be able to in case of an emergency. I've looked under the items that were recalled on this vehicle. But I get a notification that says I'm not allowed to have it fixed. Unless it's out of pocket. I purchased this car in August 2015 or 2016. The dates on the calendar below are inaccurate because the catalytic converter was done the very next day and the driver side indoor handle has been broken off for quite a while. But recently in the last week or so the other one snapped off.

Ever since I bought this vehicle, I have been having issues with it registering the key, which keeps causing an automatic security alert system to shut down my vehicle the moment I start it. I've already replaced the battery to my car. I've already had locksmiths examined the issue and nobody can seem to find the problem. The issue with the car is definitely a security issue. The car shuts down automatically and goes into theft mode which prevents me from driving my vehicle. That could be a result to a software malfunction or something but it doesn't register the keys which originally sets off the security warning. Whenever the car does register the key it drives and operates just fine. It's the computer that prevents me from driving it or whatever automatic system that is related to theft mode.

The TIPM is starting to fail. The power locks do not work, the car has problems starting has a very slow start, the horn will randomly go off and sometimes it does not want to start at all. Every article I’ve read, and every dealership I’ve talked with has said to replace the entire TIPM module. There are many other cases like this and it all comes down to the module. So with this said I am asking for either reassurance that it is that. Or receive help to be able to fix it.

The wiper relays went out recently and somehow caused the door locks to beep and go crazy then die completely. And a few weeks ago the brake came undone somehow and fell into the wheel well, ripping the inside of the rim open causing a blow out while my wife, 2 year old and I were on the freeway. And now after taking it to 2 different dodge dealerships, the problems are not fixed, there is more warning lights on than I've ever seen. And so far both places have told me they fixed an emblem on the steering wheel, and that the other recalls aren't applicable because of being a 2007 and the recalls are for the 2008. Even though my nitro is obviously having the same if not worse problems. All the way down to the emergency brake not working, we love our nitro and dodge as a company and would please like some kind of help with this situation. Our vehicle is our only source of transportation and it is not safe for us to be driving, especially in the winter conditions we just got hit with here. Thank you for your help to whom this may concern. Here are some pictures of what happened with the brakes, thank the lord we were getting off the freeway when the brakes gave way, if we had been on the freeway 15 seconds more, the accident would have been fatal without question.

Four total incidents of the vehicle engine shutting off while driving the car. Most recent today 12-17-21 was placed in extremely dangerous situation and was almost rear ended 5 times by other vehicles traveling at speeds greater than 55 mph. 1st instance occurred back in 2007 traveling West bound on I635 in Dallas (speed of 65mph) engine shut off, loss of power steering coasted to side of road. 2nd incident Fall 2007 - from complete stop to turn left and cross divided highway, the engine shut down right in the middle of the intersection and was nearly broadsided by oncoming car traveling at 45 mph. 3rd incident happened while driving in my neighborhood, engine shut down and loss of power to steering. Daimler Chrysler issued a recall to reprogram the TPIM module back in 2008 to address the problem. Nothing since then until today. I am the original Owner of this car and it has been well maintained and is still covered under the manufacturers warranty for as long as I own the vehicle. What has prompted me to report this problem is the fact that I could have been seriously injured. There was no warning whatsoever and the place where this took place had a blind spot as the car lost power during the climb and coasted at 2 mph down slope on a bend on the bridge. Cars traveling towards me had no visibility to my vehicle which was for all practical purposes at a stand still. I notified the Dodge Chrysler dealership of what took place and will also contact MOPAR to raise this serious problem. If a vehicle doesn't start is one thing, but to have a car loose power out of nowhere without warning has almost cost me serious harm on multiple occasions. Daimler Chrysler should do something before loss of life takes place.

I noticed a few months ago my dash lights and radio lights at night when I turn my headlights on would flicker on and off several times then stop and do it again repeated process. I never got it looked at so just the other day I was driving and my windshield wipers, my emergency flashers and my driverside window and the back passenger window was all going crazy my widows was rolling up and down my flashers was going off and my wipers wouldn't turn off so I immediately pull over fearing of causing an accident with someone due to not being able to focus on driving once I pulled over my horn started blowing like crazy it was weird so I cut the vehicle off and everything kept doing what it was doing so I popped the hood and killed the battery. I waited maybe 10 minutes and hooked the battery back up and seconds later my horn only started going crazy again so I had no option out of the safety of me and other vehicles on the road to just have it towed back to my house I have been researching it and I've come to find out that there's several others with dodge nitros that have had the same issue as me. The tipm module (fuse box) was bad. I have yet to be able to drive my vehicle as it would be very unsafe and I've not yet got it towed to the dealership to look at it for reasons of what I've seen other complaints had to say about there experience at the dealership.. there needs to be a recall on the electrical malfunction as it is a huge!!! Safety concern for everybody. Please do something about this.

The horn blows randomly, even when its parked. The car was taken to a dealer (Scranton Dodge) where they replaced the "clock spring"and acknowledged that the problem was not solved, however,they charged $674, and stated they for an additional $1000 would try the TIPM module. They removed the fuse to insure the horn would not blow. Having no horn is a safety violation in PA, as such, the vehicle will not pass the state safety inspection. They would continue to work on the problem but did not know what was causing the problem. In searching the internet I found MANY others with the same unsolved problem. I also contacted Jennifer at 11:47 AM on August 10 at Chryslers complaint department (1800 247-9753) and she stated Chrysler would not accept any responsibility for the problem.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON A WEEK AGO AND WONT GO OFF. VERY NERVE WRACKING. IF I FILL GAS TANK GAS COMES BACK OUT OF TANK ALL OVER ME AND TRUCK. KEY FOB STOPPED WORKING SETTING OFF ENGINE IMMOBILIZER COSTING ME $207 FOR A NEW KEY BECAUSE THE ONE THAT CAME WITH TRUCK COULD NOT BE JUST REPROGRAMMED. I LOVE MY TRUCK, BUT IT IS BECOMING ONE THING AFTER THE OTHER AND AS A SINGLE DISABLED MOM OF AN 8 YEAR OLD, I CANT AFFORD THIS MONEY PIT. ESPECIALLY WITH WHAT MY LOAN COSTS ME EVERY MONTH. I SERIOUSLY THING CHRYSLER SHOULD TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY FOR PROBLEMS IN THEIR VEHICLES ESPECIALLY SINCE I SEE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME ISSUES. I CAN SAY I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT AGAIN. WE LITTLE PEOPLE PAY MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR THESE VEHICLES, TO JUST HAVE TO TURN AROUND AND INVEST THOUSANDS MORE. I WOULD NOT COMPLAIN IF IT WAS JUST MINE, BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AND SEE ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME ISSUES, THEN ITS TIME TO COMPLAIN BECAUSE IT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT JUST MINE AND NOT JUST BECAUSE ITS AN OLDER VEHICLE WHICH I HAD THOUGHT TIL I SAW THE OTHER COMPLAINTS!!!!!!!!!!

AT 3AM WE HEARD SOMEONE HONKING OUTSIDE AND IT WENT ON FOR 20 MINUTES UNTIL A NEIGHBOR KNOCKED TO TELL ME IT WAS MY CAR HONKING BUT THERE WAS NOBODY IN THE CAR. I PRESSED MY ALARM KEY OFF AND ON BUT NOTHING WOULD STOP IT FINALLY I TOOK THE HORN FUSE OUT AND DISCONNECTED THE CAR BATTERY. A PERSON ON THE WEB TOLD ME HE HAD A SIMILAIR PROBLEM AND IT WAS A RECALL "ELECTRICAL SYSTEM" NHTSA VEHICLE SAFETY RECALL. I TYPED IN 2007 DODGE NITRO SLT AND THAT WAS ONE OF THE RECALLS ON MINE. SO THE CAR TURNED OFF WHILE PARKED AND CAR ON AND ALSO AT HE LIGHTS AND THE HORN GOES OFF. A MECHANIC TOLD ME IT SOUNDS LIKE THE (TIPM).

DRIVING MY 2007 DODGE NITRO ON A SECONDARY ROAD TWICE AND ALSO ON THE HIGHWAY DOING 75 I HAD A LOSS OF POWER, PUT MY PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND NOTHING. THIS WAS A RECALL BACK IN 2007 BUT OF COURSE MY VIN# WAS NOT INCLUDED AND IT EXPIRED. HOW CAN YOU DETERMINE WHICH VEHICLE AND WHEN IT WILL BE AFFECTED WHEN YOU SEND OUT A RECALL? I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE SECOND HAND AND DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER DID OR DID NOT HAVE DONE. I DRIVE MY ELDERLY MOTHER AND GRANDCHILDREN IN THIS VEHICLE AND NOW I DO NOT FEEL SAFE.WHEN I CALLED I WAS TOLD "TOO BAD" SO NOW IT COSTS ME 1200.00 FOR A SAFETY RECALL THAT SHOULD BE HONORED ON ALL OF CHRYSLER VEHICLES. HOPEFULLY SOMEONE IN THE CHRYSLER FAMILY WILL NOT HAVE A BAD OUTCOME IN ONE OF THEIR FAULTY VEHICLES.

ALARM PROBLEM. HORN SOUNDS AT RANDOM TIMES FOR NO REASON. IT GOES OFF IN A ERRATIC PATTERN AND I HAD TO REMOVE THE HORN FUSES TO SILENCE IT. BECAUSE IT GOES OFF SO MUCH, IT IS DRAINING MY BATTERY. I REPLACED THE BATTERY 7 MONTHS AGO (NOVEMBER OF 2018) BUT ITS NOW DRAINING RAPIDLY. I'VE BEEN UNABLE TO START MY VEHICLE TWICE IN THE LAST FEW DAYS. IT HAS NOT YET DIED WHILE IN MOTION. ALSO I HAVE A LIFT GATE AJAR FAULT AND HAD TO TURN OFF MY INTERIOR AUTO LIGHTS SO I CAN DRIVE AT NIGHT WITHOUT THEM ON. HOWEVER THE LIGHTS DO FLICKER ON AND OFF CONSTANTLY, EVEN WITH THE AUTO LIGHT FEATURE OFF. WHEN I USE MY TURN SIGNAL TO GO RIGHT, MY INTERIOR LIGHTS ALWAYS COME ON UNTIL THE BLINKER IS OFF.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEAR MY HORN START TO HONK. I FEW SECONDS LATER SOME OF MY WARNING LIGHTS STARTED TO LIGHT UP AND I DECIDED TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STOP THE CAR. AFTER I DID THIS I OPENED THE HOOD AND SAW SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. I ASSUME THIS MIGHT BE THE INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. AFTER THIS HAPPENED I AM UNABLE TO START THE VEHICLE OR PLACE IT IN DRIVE. IT IS TOTALLY UNDRIVEABLE.

THERE HAS BEEN MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS FILED WITH THE 2007 DODGE NITRO WITH VARIOUS ELECTRICAL ERRORS. THIS VEHICLE IS UNPREDICTABLE AND UNSAFE. IMAGINE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH YOUR TWO TODDLERS AND THE VEHICLE STALLS. NEXT YOUR HORN STARTS HONKING OUT OF CONTROL, THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS BEGIN TO UNCONTROLLABLY LOCK AND UNLOCK. YOU HAVE TO OPEN DOORS AT THE PERFECT TIME TO GET OUT OF YOUR VEHICLE. THAT'S NOT ALL! THEN YOUR WINDOWS START TO ROLL DOWN BY THEMSELVES. OH AND DON'T FORGET THE CRAZY ADVENTURE YOU'LL ENDURE WHEN YOU DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE AT NIGHT AND THEN YOUR HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF BY THEMSELF! YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT KIND OF DAY YOU'RE ABOUT TO HAVE WHEN YOU GET INTO THIS DEMON CAR. IF YOU LIKE TO LIVE LIFE ON THE EDGE I HAVE THE PERFECT VEHICLE IN MIND FOR YOU! IT SOUNDS LIKE MULTIPLE NITROS WERE EFFECTED BY THE SAME ISSUE, BUT WE WOULD RATHER SWEEP THE ISSUE UNDER THE RUG INSTEAD OF ACTUALLY ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE DEATH TRAPS. I AM APPALLED THAT THIS VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN RECALLED. MAYBE SOMETHING WILL BE DONE WHEN ENOUGH PEOPLE DIE RELATED TO THE MALFUNCTIONS.

ON 3/21/18 I WAS DRIVING THROUGH A MAJOR INTERSECTION WHEN THE BATTERY DASH LIGHT CAME ON IN MY TRUCK. I FOUND THIS TO BE ODD SINCE I HAD JUST HAD A BRAND-NEW BATTERY INSTALLED ON IN MY TRUCK ON 1/8/18, THEN THE FOLLOWING EVENTS OCCURRED IN RAPID SUCCESSION: ALL OF THE DASH WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON, THE A/C WHICH WAS ON AT THE TIME AND BLOWING VERY COLD AIR, BEGAN BLOWING HOT AIR, I ATTEMPTED TO ROLL DOWN THE ELECTRIC POWERED WINDOWS AND THEY WOULD NOT WORK; THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS CAME ON WITHOUT PROMPTING. I QUICKLY DECIDED TO TURN AROUND AND GO BACK HOME SINCE I WAS A SHORT DISTANCE AWAY. I DECIDED TO TAKE A ROUTE THROUGH A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD SINCE I WAS UNSURE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN NEXT AND THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BEST NOT TO BE ON A MAJOR ROADWAY IF ANYTHING FURTHER OCCURRED. I MADE A LEFT INTO THE RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD AND NOTICED MY TRUCK WAS MOVING VERY SLUGGISH AND MAKING A WEIRD NOISE. I WAS APPROACHING A STOP SIGN UP AHEAD; HOWEVER, BEFORE I COULD APPLY THE BRAKES MY TRUCK JUST CUT OFF. I QUICKLY PUT THE GEAR IN PARK AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN ON MY HAZARD LIGHT FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC TO GO AROUND ME BUT I REALIZED AT THIS POINT MY TRUCK HAD ABSOLUTELY NO POWER. A GENTLEMAN ON A BICYCLE STOPPED TO ASSIST ME AND WE DECIDED IT WOULD BE BEST IF HE PUSHED MY TRUCK AROUND THE CORNER I WAS STALLED AT, TO KEEP FROM OBSTRUCTING ONCOMING TRAFFIC. HE INSTRUCTED ME TO PUT THE TRUCK IN NEUTRAL BUT I WAS UNABLE TO DO SO, I COULD NOT TURN THE CAR ON NOR COULD I MOVE IT OUT OF PARK GEAR. THE STREET I WAS STOPPED ON IS A MAJOR ROAD FOR ENTERING AND EXITING THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PASS THROUGH TO GET HOME. THE STREET I WAS ON IS A MAJOR ROAD FOR ENTERING AND EXITING THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PASS THROUGH TO GET HOME. I CALLED AAA AND HAD MY TRUCK TOWED HOME; ITS STILL SITTING BROKEN.

I JUST GOT A USED 2007 DODGE NITRO IN OCT. 2016. I HAD IT 2 MONTHS I NOTICE THAT EVERY SO OFTEN I HAD TROUBLE WITH THE POWER DOOR LOCKS NOT WORKING. THEN AT 3 MONTHS I GO TAKE MY CHILD TO SCHOOL, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY HORN GOES OFF, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS START GOING OFF AND SPITTING OUT FLUID, EVERYTHING IN THE VEHICLE STARTS GOING CRAZY AND THEN I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY SHARP CURVE WHEN THE VEHICLE CUTS OFF AND WILL NOT START BACK. I WAS ABLE TO GET PULLED OVER SAFE BUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DIFFERENTLY BECAUSE I WAS IN A CURVE ON A MAJOR ROAD AND SCHOOL TIME RIGHT AT THE SCHOOL. HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED AND WAS TOLD THAT THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) WENT OUT AND WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT $1000. NOW I SEE SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. IT IS NOT RIGHT THAT CHRYSLER NEVER PUT OUT A RECALL ON THIS OR THAT NOTHING WAS EVER DONE ABOUT IT. I PAID ALMOST $2000 FOR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE PART EITHER BECAUSE THEY SAY IT'S JUST A FUSE BOX. PLEASE SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE OR SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED IF NOT ALREADY.

THE ELECTRIC DOOR LOCKS AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID FOR THE FRONT WINDOW DO NOT WORK. THESE ARE ON THE SAME FUSE M38 IN THE TIPM. THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND IT IS MY OPINION THAT IT IS A DEFECT AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. ALTHOUGH IT IS NOT AN IMMEDIATE THREAT, WHEN IT SNOWS AND THE SALT BUILDS UP ON THE WINDSHIELD AND YOU CAN'T SEE, IT IS A VERY BIG SAFETY ISSUE FOR YOU AND EVERYONE AROUND YOU AS A PEDESTRIAN AND IN A CAR. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT HAPPENS OVER TIME AND IT SEEMS EVERYONE IS HAVING THE ISSUE AT ONCE. THIS COULD BE A BAD WINTER

LAST MONTH (MARCH 2015), THE LOCKS COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. AFTER 2 DAYS THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES STARTING WORKING, BUT THE LOCK BUTTON IS COMPLETELY NON-FUNCTIONAL. I HAVE TO MANUALLY LOCK EVERY DOOR TO KEEP MY CAR SOMEWHAT SECURE, HOWEVER MY TRUNK IS NOW STUCK UNLOCKED WITH NO WAY TO LOCK IT. I HAVE BROUGHT MY CAR TO 3 MECHANICS AND NONE OF THEM CAN FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH IT SEEMS MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. *TR

SO IT STARTED WITH MY LOCKS NOT WORKING. THE DOOR WOULD ONLY LOCK IF I STUCK THE KEY IN THE DOOR OR IF I MANUALLY PUSHED/PULLED THE LOCK. THEN ABOUT A WEEK LATER MY CAR WOULD NOT START THE FIRST TIME WHEN I WOULD TRY TO START THE CAR. AFTER THAT, IT JUST GOT WORST FROM THERE AS IN IT WOULD TAKE LONGER/MORE ATTEMPTS TO START THE CAR, UNTIL IT JUST WOULDN'T START ANYMORE. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A MECHANIC AND HE SAID IT WAS MY FUSE BOX (TIPM). AND THAT HE HAD HEARD OF A LAWSUIT AGAINST CHRYSLER BECAUSE OF FAULTY TIPM FOR A RECALL. *TR

MY 2007, DODGE NITRO'S AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK SYSTEM WORKS INTERMEDIATELY. MOST OF THE TIME I AM UNABLE TO LOCK MY CAR USING THE LOCK BUTTON ON THE DOORS, OR USING THE KEY FOB. THE ONLY WAY TO LOCK MY CAR DOORS IS TO MANUALLY PUSH DOWN THE LOCK ON EACH DOOR, UNFORTUNATELY I AM UNABLE TO LOCK THE TRUNK DOOR/HATCH ENTIRELY BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAVE AN EXTERNAL LOCK. THUS, LEAVING MY CAR VULNERABLE TO THEFT. I TRAVEL A LOT AND I AM WORRIED TO LEAVE ANYTHING IN MY CAR SINCE IT WILL NEVER COMPLETELY LOCKS. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE IN THIS VEHICLE, ONE OF THE MOST COMMON PROBLEMS AMONG NITRO OWNERS. IN 2007 THERE WAS A RECALL ON DODGE DOOR LOCK SYSTEMS, BUT FOR SOME REASON THIS MAKE/MODEL WASN'T RECALLED. PLEASE HELP! IT COSTS OVER $1,000 TO FIX AND IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE!

THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A DEALER AND AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, AND BOTH ADVISED HER THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. IN ADDITION, ALL OF THE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLES WERE FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A DEALER AND THEY ADVISED HER THAT SHE NEEDED TO REPLACE ALL OF THE DOOR HANDLES. ALL OF THE DOOR HANDLES EXCEPT FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE WERE REPLACED. IN ADDITION, ALL OF THE WINDOWS WOULD ONLY OPERATE PARTIALLY WHEN ATTEMPTING TO OPEN AND CLOSE THEM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED FOR THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 30,000.
THE WIPER BLADES STOPPED WORKING DURING A RAIN STORM AND THE TURN SIGNALS WOULDN'T WORK, COULDN'T TURN THE HEAD LAMPS OFF OR ON.

FIRST REPAIR: VEHICLE WOULD JERK (AS IF IT WAS SHIFTING TOO HARD) WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS IN THE ROAD AND WOULD STOP (RPM GAUGE DROPS TO 0, LOSE POWER STEERING, WOULD HAVE TO COAST TO SHOULDER AND RE-START VEHICLE). FUEL INJECTOR WAS REPLACED. SECOND REPAIR: VEHICLE WOULD NOT START WITHOUT SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, ONCE IT STARTED IT WOULD STOP DRIVING (RPM GAUGE DROPS TO 0, LOSE POWER STEERING, WOULD HAVE TO COAST TO SHOULDER AND RE-START VEHICLE). RELAY WAS REPLACED. THIRD REPAIR (ABOUT TO GO BACK TO SHOP TOMORROW)- CAR STARTED NORMALLY AND THEN STOPPED WHILE DRIVING (RPM GAUGE DROPS TO 0, LOSE POWER STEERING, WOULD HAVE TO COAST TO SHOULDER AND RE-START VEHICLE). THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IN 2 WEEKS THAT THE CAR HAS BEEN IN FOR SERVICING FOR THE SAME PROBLEM, AND THE MANUFACTURER'S DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS BECOME A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN, AS I DO NOT KNOW WHEN THE VEHICLE WILL STOP UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE RENTED A CAR UNTIL I CAN HAVE MY CAR REPAIRED AGAIN, BECAUSE I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR. *TR

I PURCHASED A '07 DODGE NITRO BACK IN JUNE OF THIS YEAR. RECENTLY IT BEGAN DOING A "SHUT OFF" WHILE GOING ABOUT 80 MPH, DID THAT TWICE WITHIN A FEW MINUTES, SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME. THE NEXT DAY IT STALLED WHILE TURNING INTO MY DRIVEWAY, EACH TIME IT HAS STARTED RIGHT BACK UP ON ITS OWN NO PROBLEM. LAST NIGHT I WENT TO GO PICK UP MY SON FROM CLASS GO TO UNLOCK THE DOORS AND GOT NO RESPONSE, TRUCK WAS DEAD AS DEAD CAN GET. HAD MY HUSBAND JUMP IT AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. THIS MORNING IT WENT DEAD AGAIN WHILE I WAS WAITING IN A DRIVE-THRU LINE, HAD PEOPLE YELLING AT ME RATHER THEN ASKING IF I NEEDED HELP, FINALLY FLAGGED SOMEONE DOWN AND GOT A JUMP, AGAIN STARTED RIGHT UP NO PROBLEM. I KNOW THERE IS A RECALL OUT FOR TIPM ON VEHICLES BUILT BEFORE JANUARY 23, 2007. MINE WAS BUILT IN NOVEMBER OF '06 BUT WHEN I CHECKED THE DODGE SITE AND ENTERED MY VIN AS IT INSTRUCTED IT ONLY PULLED UP THE WIPER RELAY RECALL. I THEN CALLED MY LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP AND TOLD THEM ABOUT MY ISSUE AND HOW I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON CERTAIN VEHICLES FOR THE TIPM CAUSING IT TO STALL OUT, THEY TOLD ME THERE NEVER WAS SUCH A RECALL AND THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THAT EVER HAPPENING. I SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT( IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY) AND PRINTED OUT THE RECALL TO SHOW THEM WHEN I GET THERE, UNFORTUNATELY I CAN'T GET IN UNTIL THURSDAY WHICH MEANS I HAVE TO DRIVE SCARED OUT OF MY WITS FOR THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS. IF IT ISN'T FIXABLE THEN I MAY HAVE TO LOOK INTO GETTING RID OF MY BELOVED NITRO AS I CANNOT HAVE THIS HAPPENING WHEN I HAVE SMALL CHILDREN IN THE CAR. *TR

MY 2007 DODGE NITRO HAS BEEN HAVING STALLING ISSUES THE LAST TWO WEEKS. WHEN I PRESS THE ACCELERATOR, IT HESITATES AND ALMOST CUTS OFF. THERE IS NO PATTERN AS TO WHEN IT HAPPENS; IT IS INCONSISTENT. YESTERDAY, AFTER I PICKED UP CARPOOL AT MY SON'S ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, I MADE A RIGHT TURN, AND THE CAR COMPLETELY CUT OFF WHEN I HIT THE ACCELERATOR. I HAD TO COAST TO A STOP (I HAD NO POWER STEERING OR POWER BRAKES) AND RESTART THE CAR. FORTUNATELY, I WAS NOT MAKING A RIGHT TURN ONTO A BUSY ROAD OR INTO AN INTERSECTION AS THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NOTHING I COULD HAVE DONE TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT WITH 2 SECOND GRADERS IN THE BACK SEAT. IT WILL BE HEADING TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE CHECKED OUT. *TR

ALARM SYSTEM MALFUNCTION. ALARM WOULD ACTIVATE AND STOP, ACTIVATE AND STOP. ACCORDING TO NEIGHBORS, THIS HAPPENED ON AND OFF FROM FRIDAY NIGHT 11/13/09 THROUGH SUNDAY 11/15/09. I WAS OUT OF TOWN AT THE TIME. VEHICLE WAS SITTING IN DRIVEWAY. THIS ISSUE ANNOYED MY NEIGHBORS BIG TIME. THIS PROBLEM HAS ANNOYED A NEIGHBOR SO BAD, THAT I FEEL THREATENED BY HIM, AND HAD TO CALL TO STATE POLICE ON HIM FOR PARKING ACROSS THE STREET FROM MY HOUSE AND REVVING HIS TRUCK ENGINE, FLASHING HIS HEADLIGHTS AND HONKING HIS HORN WHILE FACING MY HOUSE. I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASE THE NITRO. THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE ALARM SYSTEM, BUT I DO NOT BUY THIS AT ALL. SOMETHING HAPPENED TO CAUSED THE ALARM SYSTEM TO MALFUNCTION OVER A 2 DAY PERIOD. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP, ONCE AN ALARM IS ACTIVATED, IT DOES NOT RESET ITSELF, AND SHOULD NOT GO OFF AGAIN UNTIL IT IS RESET. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. THE CAR HAD BEEN VANDALIZED, I.E. CUT WIRES, BUT I THINK THIS WAS DONE OUT OF SHEAR ANGER BY SOMEONE ANNOYED BY THE ALARM GOING OFF ALL THE TIME, BUT I CANNOT PROVE THIS. BUT STILL, THE ALARM SYSTEM SHOULD NOT HAVE CONTINUED TO ACTIVATE ITSELF. *TR

I COULD HAVE DIED IN THE ACCIDENT, OR YESTERDAY WHEN MY NITRO STALLED AGAIN...AND NOW I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM!! PLEASE INVESTIGATE, LIVES ARE AT SERIOUS RISK! *JB

MY COMPLAINT IS IN REGARD TO THE NEW DODGE NITRO. ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING , TWICE AT SPEEDS OF APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH AND ONCE WHILE GOING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, I LOST POWER FOR A FEW SECONDS. NO STEERING, NO BRAKES, NO CONTROL. LUCKILY, WITHIN 2-3 SECONDS IT LITERALLY TURNED ITSELF BACK ON. WHEN I COMPLAINED OF THIS TO MY DEALER'S MAINTENANCE SHOP , ARRIGO DODGE ON OKEECHOBEE IN WEST PALM BEACH, THEY DISMISSED IT AS SOME TYPE OF GLITCH, AND DIDN'T SEE HOW THEY COULD SIMULATE A 5 HOUR ROAD-TRIP. WHICH WAS THE SITUATION WHEN THIS FIRST HAPPENED, AND IT WOULD BE UP TO ME TO LEAVE THE CAR THERE FOR AS LONG AS NECESSARY, FIND MY OWN REPLACEMENT TRANSPORTATION AND PAY TO HAVE THEM INSPECT THE NEW VEHICLE."THIS I FOUND NOT ONLY TO BE HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, BUT A POTENTIALLY HUGE LIABILITY TO THE DAIMLER /CHRYSLER CORPORATION. JUST THIS WEEK I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL STATING THAT THIS SAME THING HAS BEEN HAPPENING IN SEVERAL NITRO MODELS, AND THAT I NEED TO BRING THE CAR IN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. PERSONALLY, I DIDN'T WANT A BRAND NEW CAR THAT WAS ALREADY POSING SOME POTENTIALLY DEADLY DEFECTS, AND WISHED TO FILE THIS FORMAL COMPLAINT NOT ONLY AGAINST DAIMLER/CHRYSLER, BUT ALSO FOR ARRIGO DODGE.

WITH ONLY 4,500 MILES ON MY 2007 DODGE NITRO, THE ENTIRE ENGINE STALLED, DIED, WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO WORK, GOING ABOUT 45 MILES PER HOUR. POWER LOSS WAS COMPLETE, NO RADIO, NO ENGINE, ALL LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CAME ON. THE OUTAGE LASTED ABOUT , I GUESS 30 SECS TO 1 MINUTE, THEN THE ENGINE CAME BACK ON AS DID THE RADIO. I WAS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, ON THE INSIDE LANE AND HAD IT NOT RESTARTED, I WAS IN A WRECK FOR SURE AS A BIG TRUCK WAS BEHIND ME, ANOTHER CAR NEXT TO ME IN THE OUTSIDE LANE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER WHICH SAYS IT COULD BE THE IGNITION SWITCH, BUT AFTER READING FOR HOURS ON THE DODGE NITRO FORUM, I FIND THAT MANY HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME ISSUE AND NOT ONE DEALER HAS BEEN ABLE TO FIND A FIX. I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE IN THE SHOP 7 TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT IT. ALL OF THE PROBLEMS ARE A PROBLEM FOR ME AS THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE AND BEING SINGLE, I HAVE NO OTHER TRANSPORTATION TO MY TEACHING JOB. BUT THIS STALLING ISSUE, IF NOT FIXED, WILL LEAD TO A MAJOR ACCIDENT ANY DAY. CHRYSLER NEED TO BE ACTIVELY PURSUING A FIX OR A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED. *TR
