What owners say
Electronical issues, like I'm unable t ok open trunk or lock and unlock vehicle with keys check engine light as well as an exclamation point turns on and of while car is on drive. Airbag light doesn't turn off even if both passenger and driver have seatbelts on it beeps while driving
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 dodge nitro 4x2. The contact stated that the doors and rear hatch would not unlock unless the engine was running. The contact also stated that the driver's side air bag warning indicator was illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing, but the details of the diagnostic could not be provided. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 100,100.
Doors lock and unlock at will - causing headlights to come on during the night which has killed my battery several times... So I had to take the battery out of the key fob which means the security system can't be set.. The radio is buzzing and screeching at will - works sometimes and then it won't but restarting the vehicle usually fixes this... The air bag light comes on and off at will and even stays on most of the driving time... The gas cap warning light comes on and off at will - have replaced the gas cap twice in the past year and it continues to give this warning... - I've researched this on the internet and there are many nitro owners having the same problem... Does someone have to get hurt in order for dodge to take responsibility for changing the tipm in their vehicles????
There is an electrical issue with the control module has to be - strange things keep happening, door locks are activating by themselves causing headlights to stay on and running down battery and other times its door locks won't work at all with or without using key fob, radio is working sporadically and making strange loud noises, there's even a whistle sound coming form the fuse box at times, the air bag light comes on and off at will. I've read where a lot of nitro's are doing this and it seems to be some type of control module. This really needs to be addressed before I have an accident and can't get out of my vehicle.
My car shuts off and then turns back on while in motion. The car will completely turn off including all electrical components then turns back on. When it turns back on all the lights on the dash like the ABS and SRS lights light up and turn off as like if I just started the car. This has happened to me three times. The third time the car did not turn back on (I think because I was almost stopped the other 2 times I was going between 30-65 MPH and the engine started back up automatically). I had to put it in park and restart it the 3rd time. It has been to the dealer 2-3 times for this issue and they are unable to diagnose a problem. Therefore I have notified the manufacturer and you the federal safety agency in hopes of resolving the problem. There are several other owners with the same problem that can be found at http://www.nitroforumz.com/showthread.php?t=18 thank you.
