2008 DODGE NITRO. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND MECHANICAL REPAIR PROBLEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE AC AND WENT OUT, ALONG WITH THE LOW AND HIGH SWITCH MELTING SOME OF THE UNDER PANEL WHERE THE SWITCH WAS MOUNTED. SMOKE WAS COMING FROM OUT THE DASH WHILE DRIVING. THE HORN WAS BLARED OUT OF CONTROL, DRAINING THE BATTERY, THE RADIO WOULD NOT COME ON, THE DOORS LOCKED AND UNLOCKED UNCONTROLLABLY, THE WHEEL AND HUB FAILED ON THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, THE WATER PUMP WAS REPLACED, THE BRAKES WERE REPLACED THREE TIMES, IN ONE YEAR. WHEN THE CONSUMER CLICKED THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE KEY PAD, THE DOOR LOCKS WENT HAYWIRE, IT WOULD LOCK AND THE CONSUMER WAS UNABLE TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. ALSO, THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS REPLACED. THE TIPM WAS REPLACED. HOWEVER, A WEEK LATER, THE PROBLEMS RETURNED WITH THE HEADLIGHTS STAYING ON, THE HORN...
I LIVE IN METRO ATLANTA AND I HAVE A 2008 DODGE NITRO. I LOVE MY TRUCK BUT 12/01/11 BROUGHT MY LOVE TO LIKE AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. I WORK 2.7 MILES FROM HOME - ON MY WAY HOME 12/01/11, THE HORN STARTED SOUNDING, LIGHTS WERE FLASHING, DOORS WERE TRYING TO LOCKING AND UNLOCK, FRONT AND REAR WIPERS CAME ON, AND THE WATER FOR THE WIPERS STARTED SPRAYING. I PULLED OVER, CUT THE TRUCK OFF FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND STARTED IT BACK UP. NEEDLESS TO SAY THAT DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I DROVE ALL THE WAY HOME WITH ALL THESE THINGS HAPPENING. ONCE I GOT HOME, 'I CUT THE TRUCK OFF" AND THE WIPERS WERE STILL GOING AS WELL AS THE HORN, THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS, AND THE DOOR LOCKS. SO 'I TOOK THE KEY OUT' AND WOULDN'T YOU KNOW - EVERYTHING CONTINUE TO DO THE SAME...
