Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE THAT DODGE MUST THINK IS NOT SERIOUS ENOUGH TO FIX. ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO WHILE DRIVING THE CAR THE HORN KEPT GOING OFF. IN AN HOURS TIME THE THING MUST'VE GONE OFF AT LEAST 30 TIMES! I TOOK IT IN AND THE DEALERSHIP GAVE ME 5 POSSIBLE CAUSES AS THE COMPUTER SCAN DIDN'T FIND ANY ISSUES/CODE. TODAY IT STARTED GOING OFF AGAIN. I WAS IN MY HOUSE, SO THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING. WHEN I WENT OUTSIDE THINKING I COULD POSSIBLY UNPLUG THE HORN, I NOTICED THAT THE RADIO WAS ON. NO KEY IN THE IGNITION! OVER THE LAST 5 MONTHS, THE HORN HAS GONE OFF BOTH WHILE AND WHILE NOT DRIVING IT, THE RADIO HAS COME ON WHEN NO ONE WAS IN THE CAR AND NO KEY IN THE IGNITION AND THE CAR HAS STALLED WHILE IT WAS BEING DRIVEN DOWN THE ROAD. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED! I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THESE ISSUES. WHEN GOOGLING "2007 DODGE NITRO HORN GOING OFF" THERE ARE MULTIPLE STORIES OF THIS HAPPENING TO PEOPLE, WHICH INCLUDE ALL TYPES OF ELECTRIC ISSUES. SOME RESOLVED THE ISSUE WHEN A NEW TIPM WAS INSTALLED. DODGE/CHRYSLER NEEDS TO RECALL THE VEHICLE FOR FAULTY TIPM BEFORE PEOPLE GET SERIOUSLY INJURED! *TR
