We have had three instances of our 2007 Nitro dying while on the road, fortunately we were able to get it off the road. we took it to the local Dodge dealer in 2015 on a drive shaft Recall and after getting it fixed asked dealer to check Electrical recall, dealer said that recall had been fixed in 2009. In 2016 my wife had one stall on the road in the Nitro and then we went to the dealer again and reported the stalling but they did nothing to correct the Electrical Problem, saying it had already been handled. I told them the recall of Electrical problem was far from fixed because on the way home from the dealership, the Nitro acted up and when we got home, It died. I charged the battery that had been drawn down by something and could only be started by Fully charging the battery. The Dealership let us leave the dealership in a defective dodge Nitro and have not contacted us since. Holy Toledo!

I have a 2007 dodge nitro which I bought three years ago with 20,000 thousand miles and now have 92,000 on it and all I have done is brake, oil changes thats it. I now am having issues with ABS, but still remain completely satisfied with it's performance for the price with 4x4 option any car can be a lemon hope you don'T GET ONE THANKS

Do you drive a 2007 DODGE NITRO?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
