NHTSA Complaint #10192567 — 2007 DODGE NITRO 4X2

HAD MY CAR INTO DEALER 2 TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. IT SHUTS DOWN WHILE IN MOTION. HAVE HAD 5 INCIDENTS OF STALLING. THE 5TH TIME WAS THE SAME THING, IT COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. UNABLE TO STEER AND BRAKE. I RAN OFF THE ROAD, THROUGH A CHAIN LINK FENCE, DOWN AN IMBANKMENT INTO SOMEBODY'S BACK YARD, THE ONLY THING STOPPING MY VEHICLE WAS A LARGE CAR TRAILER. I WAS SLIGHTLY INJURED (BRUISING). IT IS MY OPINION THAT DODGE HAS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE HERE, THAT THEY ARE NOT ADDRESSING. THE DEALER HAS MADE FAILED ATTEMPTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM BY REPLACING THE TORQUE CONVERTOR AND THE CLK SPRING. I NOW HAVE A BRAND NEW CRASHED CAR. I COULD HAVE KILLED SOMEONE OR MYSELF. SEARCHING THE YOUR NHTSA SITE, I HAVE FOUND 32 COMPLAINTS FOR THIS STALLING PROBLEM ON ALL DODGE NITRO MODELS LISTED ON THIS SITE. WHY HASN'T NHTSA INSISTED ON A RECALL OF THESE VEHICLES OR AT LEAST A WARNING TO THE DRIVERS, THIS APPEARS TO BE NEGLIGENCE ON YOUR PART. PLEASE CONTACT ME AS TO WHY NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN.
