 Description of the problemI drive a 2008 dodge nitro, had it for 3 years, had no issues untill this year 2016, at the beginning of 2016 i had my car accelerate on its own while i was a red light, that almost caused and accident, took it in to the dealership to get that checked out but after paying $140 they did not do a thing because, they could not duplicate?? Then months later, it happened a few other times, ones on my drive way and another in a parking lot at wal-mart, had. No issues for about afew months, but then suddenly just a few months ago i had a sudden scare of my car turning it self off on the freeway, i had my kids in the behicle and it was at night, glad nothing bad happened, but then i started to notice the lights on my pannel started to turn on, first it was the security red light, then, tire gauge, they till this day keep turning on and off, but the latest issue and most frequent is the windshield wipers, they stay truned on, the pannel lights and windshield wiper issue all started to happen since june2016 i called dodge not the dealership but their actually office, and all they kept doing was giving me the run arround, asking me to go spend my hard owned money to get it checked out, yet i had already done that when that first started, and they could never "duplicate" it, and that was when it would just take off on its own, i recently did a search and found out that all dodge nitros were going thru the same issues, yet no recalls have been done, not sure what they are waiting for, but these are very dangerous issues, why a lawsuit has. Not been filed??? Please of there is a lawsuit im not aware off please post it, we all need safe cars to drive, also im curious have any of you nitro owners have had dodge trying to buy your car from you, i have had offer after offer, i find this something strange
