Replaced my brakes and rotors and had them bled. Ever since, the brake goes down close to the floor to take effect. Also makes a popping noise in the middle lower console when the brake is applied. Safety issue for sure. On the suspension, every time I hit a bump or uneven surface it makes a lot of noise underneath the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Nitro. The contact stated that while driving 60 mph, the steering wheel seized. As a result, the driver lost control of the vehicle and crashed against a total of four vehicles.

A police report was not filed and two drivers of other vehicles were injured. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was destroyed.

After having a vibration in the under carriage of my Dodge Nitro; I then carried it to a Dodge dealership and was told that it needed an induction service. I being totally displeased with the recommendation; I decided to seek some assistance at a local garage and an investigation was done of the vehicle. As a result of the mechanic doing a few test and driving the vehicle; it was said that the vehicle had a chattering feeling coming from the drive train {automatic transmission}. the mechanic also did a google search to find that a lot of other vehicles are having the same problem!!! it was also recorded that there's some issues with the electronics and a few other parts; yet Dodge is sitting back making money off the consumers for these known defects in their vehicles. Why"?? also is it just the manner of business now to build vehicle to breakdown on an annual basis??? see nbc nightline news investigation on Dodge dealerships!!! please research!!! thank you a concerned consumer seeking assistance. Would this be a good time to start a world wide class action lawsuit??" please reply as I seek legal counsel.
