“Possible defect on a 2007 Dodge nitro that is going to be resold at an auto auction on 12/10/2009. The issue has been reported to Dodge/chrysler and to the dealership that sold us the car. This car is dangerous, was dangerous when it was sold to us. I will be more than happy to share the incident report on file with Dodge hq and our attorney.”

NHTSA complaint #10294551, filed 2009-12, 48,000 miles

“Dodge nitro r/t package (sport suspension and 20 inch tire/rim). Poor highway handling on bumps at bridge and road joint if speeds are greater than 60mph; you will notice loss of grip and may result in roll-over or crash. Handling is worst when its slippery or wet conditions. I slow down on all bridges in georgia and ohio. I notice this issue when drive in 2008-2009 putting 7500 mi per year.”
