“In cold weather, 4 to 5 degrees and colder, the tires loose pressure. It appears to be the valves which contain the sensor that indicates if a tire is low in pressure. Above 5 degrees the tires maintain the required pressure. I have taken to carrying a hand pump so that I can pump the tire as needed.”

“Takata recall I leased my Dodge nitro in 2007 and decided to buy it out due to over mileage allowance. Issues with this car started slowly and escalated over time. My tires lost air constantly. New tires didn't help. Winter I have to put air in all tires once a week. Possibly due to rims. When backing up this vehicle would jolt out on its own not giving me enough time to react to hitting something or someone. The engine was sporadic with the way it handled power and administering it throughout functions. Constant leaking of fluids. …”

“2-3 times a week my car's electrical just shuts down while driving. A/c everything. It started with just the tpm gauge going off saying it was a flat but has now escalated to all the electrical in the car. I purchased this car in april 2008 even though it is an 2007 model , I have taken it about 3 times to the dealership, no one has been able to find the problem. I have had witnesses in the car when this has occurred. I am worried this could be a safety issue as it is a distraction and also I feel this could lead to the whole car shutting off. Please help”
