I am highly reconsidering staying with dodge now. Specially the outcome of this. It hasn't been inspected yet. No warning signs.

WHEN FILLING VEHICLE WITH FUEL, EXCESS FUEL WILL SPEW FROM THE FILLER TUBE ONTO SIDE OF VEHICLE AND GROUND CAUSING SAFETY ISSUES. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES IN THE 5+ YEARS I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE.

2010 DODGE NITRO SPILLS FUEL OUT OF FUEL INTAKE EVERY TIME YOU ATTEMPT TO FILL UP THE TANK. THIS CAUSES ABOUT 1/2 GALLON OF FUEL TO SPRAY ALL OVER THE VEHICLE AND THE OPERATOR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 DODGE NITRO. WHILE THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS AT A STOP LIGHT, IT WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT STRUCK THE PRECEDING VEHICLE.

MY VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS WILL NOT CUT ON. THOUGH IT IS NOT ALL THE TIME IT DOES HAPPEN A GOOD 80% OF THE TIME AND MORE NOW THAN EVER. WHEN YOU UNLOCK THE LOCK THE LIGHTS WILL FLICKER. THEN WHEN YOU GO TO CUT THE LIGHTS ON THEY WILL FLICKER ON AND OFF UNTIL THEY CUT COMPLETELY OFF AND WILL NOT COME BACK ON UNTIL EITHER THE NEXT DAY OR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. THE LIGHTS WILL NOT CUT ON IN MOTION OR AT A COMPLETE STOP. THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE WHO GO IN AND GET OFF WORK AT NIGHT. THIS CAN CAUSE ACCIDENT AND IS DEFINITELY CONSIDERED ENDANGERMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 DODGE NITRO. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC MULTIPLE TIMES WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE NUMBER TWO CYLINDER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED NUMEROUS TIMES; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE VALVE AND CYLINDER HEAD WERE NOT PROPERLY SEATED. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT BOTH CYLINDER HEADS NEEDED TO BE REMOVED AND REBUILT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK ONLY WORKS INTERMITTENTLY WITH THE AUTOMATIC KEY FOB. EVEN THOUGH YOU CAN HEAR THE LOCKING MECHANISM ACTUATE, THE HORN SOUNDS AND THERE SEEMS TO BE A SLIGHT MOVEMENT OF THE LOCK POST, IT DOESN'T PHYSICALLY LOCK THE DOOR. YOU CAN STILL PUSH THE OUTSIDE DOOR BUTTON AND THE DOOR WILL OPEN. I'VE FOUND THAT IT USUALLY TAKES 2 - 3 ATTEMPTS BEFORE IT WILL LOCK. I'VE NOTE AFTER AN ONLINE INQUIRY THAT SEVERAL OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME AND/OR A VERY SIMILAR PROBLEM AS WELL, AND IT WAS NOTED IN ONE POST THAT IT WAS FOUND TO BE A PROBLEM WITH A MODULE IN THE DOOR MECHANISM. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WARRANTING A FACTORY RECALL AND/OR REPAIR AS IT CONSTITUTES A VEHICLE BREECH THAT WOULD ALLOW A SAFETY AND/OR THEFT AVENUE. USING THE KEY TO PHYSICALLY LOCK THE DOOR EACH TIME SHOULDN'T BE THE EXPECTED RESPONSE, AS SEVERAL OTHERS NOTED IN THEIR POST THAT THIS DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK, AND THE AUTOMATIC KEY FOB SHOULD BE EXPECTED TO WORK AS IT WAS INTENDED OR IT'S POINTLESS TO HAVE EVEN PROVIDED ONE WITH THE VEHICLE. IT SHOULD BE SAID THAT THE FAULT ONLY OCCURS WITH THE VEHICLE STATIONARY AND THAT AT THIS POINT THE DOORS AUTOMATICALLY LOCK AS INTENDED SHORTLY AFTER THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.

I CHECKED TO MAKE SURE THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK (IT WAS). I TRIED THREE MORE TIMES TO START THE VEHICLE WITH THE SAME RESULTS. EACH TIME CHECKING THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE IN THE OFF POSITION AND AGAIN MAKING SURE THE CAR WAS IN PARK WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. VEHICLE AFTER ANOTHER ATTEMPT STARTED.
