While driving at 30 MPH the 2007 dodge nitro 4x4 stalled as I was entering a right hand curve. The electrical system and power to the vehicle turned off without any warning and I could not turn the steering wheel to avoid an embankment. The vehicle came to rest on its left side as it rolled off the embankment. This resulted in substantial cosmetic and undercarriage damage. Both ceiling/ curtain airbags deployed. Police and ambulance arrived on scene , and the vehicle was towed to the nearest shop. The nitro stalled a couple of instances before this crash and was brought to the attention and serviced by the local dealer that it was purchased from.

Got vehicle 12/06 - it stalled a couple times when driving/backing at slow speeds. 4/19/07 - while driving 50+ MPH, all dashboard lights and radio went off. Within a second, all lights and the radio came back on and vehicle seemed to run ok. We are calling dealership to discuss/take in for service. Have read many similar comments from other nitro owners (www.nitroforumz.com).
Over the last month I have experienced several problems with my dodge nitro slt. The most serious was it shutting off while driving down the interstate. Two less serious issues was the driver's window often stalling and a tsm alert sounds. I have had it in the dealership twice and I still have problems with the same issues.
Well I bought my 2007 dodge nitro in jan.07 and after 1 month I encountered stalling problems, all of a sudden you will be driving at speeds of 60 MPH or less and the engine would stale out and all lights come on then the car might continue on or you have to restart it. The problem is I almost got t-boned in an intersection which could of killed me something needs to be done.
Driving at 65 MPH on major highway, car stalled, all dash lights came on, car restarted. Yesterday this happened again, this time tractor-trailer bearing down on my husband, he tried for the shoulder, hit some debris there, broke the front fascia, car restarted. Many occurrences listed on www.nitroforumz.com from many dodge nitro owners around country and in canada. Please investigate this potentially dangerous, life-threatening flaw in the 2007 dodge nitro.
I own a 07 dodge nitro build date 11/06. I was going down the road and the engine and electronics shut down for 1-2 sec. And then started back up again.
