Approx.

They took to dodge dealership for them to program. When I picked up, lights on dash still all on. Auto shop spoke with dodge and person who programmed said they programmed the module, but something else was causing dash to light up. Auto shop tells me, I have to buy a 2nd module. After a weeks time of not having a...

I had slowed down to look for an address on a dead end street which abutted up to a chain link fence and an embankment just off of i-5 in lakewood, washington. My 83 year old mother was riding in the passenger seat. My nitro rapidly accelerating to approximately 70-80 mph. I crashed through a chain link fence and struck a tree. If it wasn't for the tree I would have ended up on i-5 and possibly collided with northbound traffic. The airbags did not deploy. However I believe this was due to primarily striking the...

During acceleration, pedal sensor malfunctioned, which didn't allow vehicle to maintain or increase speed. Vehicle decelerated on interstate, posing an immediate hazard to other drivers. Since, it has happened twice more. Once it wouldn't allow vehicle to accelerate past 35, and the second time it wouldn't go higher than 10 (also in a 55 mph area). Second, though the recall has been on manual transmissions only, the parking break on the 2007 dodge nitro 4x4 r/t is faulty, and though the light comes on...

This vehicle has had many issues. The brake pedal becomes hard to push with little braking effect then will suddenly loosen up and apply hard brakes. The seat belts act up. The door handles on the inside break while driving down the road so you cannot get out from inside. The engine revs and hesitates intermittently. The cruise control fails. There are numerous blind spots. The vehicle is not stable on the highway. It is sometimes slow to start. The window controls are in a bad location. There is only one key cylinder to unlock the doors with a key. *Tr
