Description of the problem | I purchased my nitro in 2011 and since then i have had numerous incidents of the doorlocks turning off and on,alarm going off,wind shield wipers going off,lights blinking and fluid discharging,horn blowing. Etc.... Numerous owners of the 2008 nitro are having the same issue and no one from the dodge dealership is taking responsibility for there malfunctioned parts. I think that says a lot about dodge in itself if you are not recalling their nitros and having them fixed before this problem causes a serious injury. I have seen the complaints that it's a tipm part that is the cause of this issue and that the dodge dealership states that it's on back order or something to that effect my issue is this what happens if my car catches on fire due to there malfunctioned part that they aren't doing anything about. Need to know what and who to speak to that can get this problem resolved because i feel that dodge needs to rectify this issue we owners of the 2008 nitro are having. |
