Consumer Description

THERE HAS BEEN MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS FILED WITH THE 2007 DODGE NITRO WITH VARIOUS ELECTRICAL ERRORS. THIS VEHICLE IS UNPREDICTABLE AND UNSAFE. IMAGINE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH YOUR TWO TODDLERS AND THE VEHICLE STALLS. NEXT YOUR HORN STARTS HONKING OUT OF CONTROL, THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS BEGIN TO UNCONTROLLABLY LOCK AND UNLOCK. YOU HAVE TO OPEN DOORS AT THE PERFECT TIME TO GET OUT OF YOUR VEHICLE. THAT'S NOT ALL! THEN YOUR WINDOWS START TO ROLL DOWN BY THEMSELVES. OH AND DON'T FORGET THE CRAZY ADVENTURE YOU'LL ENDURE WHEN YOU DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE AT NIGHT AND THEN YOUR HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF BY THEMSELF! YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT KIND OF DAY YOU'RE ABOUT TO HAVE WHEN YOU GET INTO THIS DEMON CAR. IF YOU LIKE TO LIVE LIFE ON THE EDGE I HAVE THE PERFECT VEHICLE IN MIND FOR YOU! IT SOUNDS LIKE MULTIPLE NITROS WERE EFFECTED BY THE SAME ISSUE, BUT WE WOULD RATHER SWEEP THE ISSUE UNDER THE RUG INSTEAD OF ACTUALLY ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE DEATH TRAPS. I AM APPALLED THAT THIS VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN RECALLED. MAYBE SOMETHING WILL BE DONE WHEN ENOUGH PEOPLE DIE RELATED TO THE MALFUNCTIONS.
