2007 DODGE NITRO Complaints

HORN GOES OFF ON IT OWN, EVEN WHILE DRIVING. STARTS WON'T START, BATTERY IS NOT DEAD. DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK ON THEIR OWN. PASSENGER DOOR CONTROLS THE DRIVE SETTING FOR LOCKING AND UNLOCKING CAR, SHUTTING RADIO OFF. THE DRIVE DOOR WILL LOCK AND NOT LET YOU OUT, EVEN TRYING TO PULL IT UP MANUAL AND IT WON'T LET YOU. HAVE TO USE KEY IN DOOR TO UNLOCK AND QUICKLY OPEN BEFORE IT LOCKS AGAIN. IN AN ACCIDENT THIS COULD BE A BIG PROBLEM.

THE DRIVER SIDE BREAK LIGHT AND REVERSE LIGHT HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED TOO FREQUENTLY. NOW THE GEAR SHIFT - DIAG CODE U0103 SEEMS TO CAUSE THE LOSS OF COMMUNICATION OF THE GEAR POSITION. THAT ONLY ALLOWS THE VEHICLE TO ONLY TRAVEL ABOUT 20MPH AND APPROX 3000 RPM , WHICH CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS IF THERE IS A UNEXPECTED SLOW DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY

2007 4X2 DODGE NITRO RECALL. THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON. IT JUST APPEARED OUT OF NOWHERE ABOUT A WEEK AGO

THE LIGHT W/ THE AIRBAG AND SEAT BELT SIGN ON DASHBOARD ARE ON FOR THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS. IT WORRIES ME BECAUSE MY TEENAGE TWIN DAUGHTERS DRIVE THIS CAR. SECONDLY, WE HAD WORK ON THE CAR DONE LESS THAN A YEAR TO FIX SHIFTING CABLES OR SOMETHING TO THAT AFFECT, TO WHERE DEALERSHIP HAD TO TAKE THE COMPLETE DASH OUT AND EVER SINCE THE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON. NOT TO MENTION THE RATTLING THAT GOES WITH IT. WE DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR BECAUSE I AM TRYING TO PREVENT FROM SOMETHING ACTUALLY HAPPENING WHETHER WE ARE STATIONARY OR DRIVING. IT ALSO MAKES A DINGING SOUND WHEN LIGHT COMES ON.

FUELING AT GAS PUMP , OVERFLOWS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE ! CANT FILL UP THE TANK TO FULL !!

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.

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK IF I DO NOT MANUALLY STOP THE PUMP BEFORE THE TANK IS FULL, THE TANK WILL OVERFLOW. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AT MULTIPLE STATIONS USING MULTIPLE PUMPS. THE TANK DOES NOT ALLOW THE PUMPS TO AUTO SHUTOFF FUNCTION TO WORK

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE NITRO. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO OVERHEAT AND THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE INCREASED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND ALLOWED IT TO COOL DOWN. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED, IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HEAD GASKET NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

LOCKS QUIT WORKING THE FOB WILL ONLY UNLOCK THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. ALL OTHER DOORS HAVE TO BE DONE MANUALLY AND I CAN'T OPEN THE BACK HATCH BECAUSE THERE IS NO PLACE TO PUT IN A KEY AND UNLOCK IT.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND POWER GOES OUT. NO AIR, NO RADIO, ENGINE WILL NOT START.
