I just bought a 2007 toxic orange nitro R/T with a sunroof and heated seats🥵 buttttt it has 226,825 miles on it😳 it had like 226,774 when I got it but it has no leaks, no knocking, ticking Just maybe a belt or power steering cause it squeaks when you turn the wheel when your not moving and it does it even if you are moving when you turn the wheel all the way, and a few small things like the sunroof and mirrors, windshield washer fluid doesn’t work but I looked and it was disconnected, getting everything fixed soon!! But I love it sooo much it’s so pretty, it has the same rims as in the video and it has chrome running boards and the chrome accent piece in the front and the 8 speakers and sub in the back😁😁 couldn’t be happier
Everybody is criticizing the Nitro, but the one thing I like about it is it's one of the last rear wheel drive compact SUV you can get. While every other manufacturer is following suit, going to (front) wrong wheel drive.
I hit a cow in this car my family lived not one person got hurt and we were going 60 and slowed down to 55 when we hit it it was a black cow and it was night time and didn’t know it was open range but apparently they said the cow was across the road and most of the time that don’t happen but I do know we lived and god was with us 🙏.
@ChrisU354 iam from egypt and here in egypt the best cars in the streets are : 1-german cars : mercedes benz-vw-bmw 2-american cars : jeep,chrysler,dodge-gmc and chevrolet 3-japanese cars : toyota,lexus - nissan
@tbdaemon I know! When everyone was going FWD, Dodge stuck with and/or went back to RWD. Sadly now that they're in Fiat's control, I doubt things will stay that way. Everyone talks, but whenever they actually release details, they never come through... I'm still waiting for that rwd Impala that was promised us back in 06, that we won't be getting in '13 or '14 or whenever the next one comes out...
This Dodge Nitro has the same transmission of the HEMI* 300C Chrysler, has the old fashioned ABS system plus anti-collission sensor, so when ever u take a bend in a fast speed you will not skid or slide, even if it is wet, it is pretty fast at responding and changing gears, plus the surrounding System it's just amazing.. plying all my pitbull songs from my Blackberry it's class... This Battle truck turns heads where ever u go... >:D
The Nitro is one of the few cars in the Chrysler lineup that haven't been redone since the partnership with Fiat. This thing was created during the years when Chrysler was owned by Daimler and Cerberus. Ergo, it sucks ass. I'm a big fan of Dodge, but anyone who is dumb enough to buy a 2011 Nitro deserves what they're getting.
why don't they lower and stiffer the suspention, give some 20'' rims and throw 5.7 Hemi under the hood, result will be small sporty crossower with 370+ hp
@rockerdude29 Also why don't you go look at what most Toyotas get recalled for.... They are recalled for the floor mat trapping the gas pedal, a pedal not manufactured by Toyota and that several other OEMs use that all suffer from the same Uncontrollable Accelerating. The other one is factory dealerships putting on tires and rims that do not meet load requirements for the vehicle, that is via FMV regs. I'm still wondering why their aren't more recalls on the Nitro, go to any forum and read.
@tommypickles09 Yes, why would they choose something that didn't look like every other SUV out there? Why in the world didn't they buy a Ford Escape, or Honda CRV, or Toyota Rav4, so they could blend in with everyone else? How silly of them!
How about a real world test of this thing. If you're only interested in 0-60 and quarter mile times...then this isn't for you. There should be tests for different vehicles in their respective categories.
UM MY BROTHER HAS A 4.0 NITRO R.T. AND MY MOM HAS A 3.7 LIBERTY I BEAT BOTH OF THEM EVERY TIME WITH MY BUICK LESABRE 3800 V6!!! DAMN, THEY GET MAD! 2005 BUICK LESABRE GS ONE YEAR ONLY SPECIAL EDITION SUPERCHARGED FROM FACTORY STOCK STOCK AND STOCK
@rockerdude29 Far far less than Chrysler. Quit being a fanboy and be objective. Toyota is one of the companies with the least amount of recalls in the last 5 years, it's just their's were some of the biggest. And as far as SUA is concerned it was debunked already. I hate their cars but they are reliable. Chryslers on the other hand have have been consistently unreliable for over 20 years. Chrysler has had more recalls with their vehicle than all the Japanese auto companies combined.
@GameUrg pretty much sums it up. I never understand why you have those die hard american car lovers who defend cars like this just because its american. I'm glad as an american I can refuse to put up with crap like we just seen here. If people stopped by shitty ass cars like this it would force american car manfucturers to produce better cars.
isnt the nitro one of the worst rated vehicles in history? i think its funny when comprehensive reviews prove a vehicle to be horribly unreliable, inefficient and shotty build quality and then i still see them on the road.... like hummer H2's. dont people do 30 minutes of research before making a $30, 000 decision?
I never did like this thing. And seeing it here, doesn't make my opinion any better. Awefull styling, no leg room, poor built quality, choice of engines and fuel economy and not earodynamicaly thought of. Get rid of this thing.
doesn't perform very well does it...I don't see the point of this car it's a good thing this is the last model year. but people, shut up about of the making fun of Chrysler...every car company makes mistakes and they all have atleast one bad car
Another POS made by Daimler Chrysler. I bought one here in Japan and it was the worst mistake I had ever made. The car was a complete lemon and for the price I payed it was so cheap on the inside. Ride quality was horrible and the engine noise was just intake manifold sucking air. This car deserve to be cancelled and everyone who bought one should have their money returned. This thing is a death trap and suffers from unintended acceleration, stalling and bad torque converter. POS CAR!!

Serpentine belt issue!
Still have it?
hmm. wierd. i have a nitro r/t and i am completely in love with it. its a solid suv.
The 4.0L V6 sounds really nice.
I can hit 60 mph in my 4.0 Nitro R/T in a matter of seconds. Fast SUV!! I love it!! ❤
Crucialkeyz1999
Crucialkeyz1999 thats gotta b a 3.7 nitro ! minez a blast to drive and will haul azz if it wants too
@@19shawn85 bro what?💀
its a shock that it isnt faster? it should be supercharged or have a 5.7l in it right?

Amen brother!

@tbdaemon It's RWD... one of the last of its breed. It would still be a bit of a squeeze getting a Hemi under there, though...

I got a 2011 with the 4.0L and im telln you this 0-60 time is incorrect. This is by far 1 of the fastest SUV on the planet.
what does rollout mean?
it makes a sonic boom sort of when it accelerates fast
what exactly is a "rollout"?
@tommypickles09 what would you spend the money on?
Like the creaking sounds the chassis is making when it stops.
What you hearing is actually the brakes grabbing the rotors. Only happens during extreme braking
By the way all vehicle's do this under heavy brake loads
@lbryan250 if you could make a car what would it be and who would you work for?
Remember: Not liking the car is no reason to dislike the video.
how they measure skidpad number
Looking forward to buy this car
@tinleo333 You're right! (at least in Canada according to Sympatico Auto)
Wow is that a tall 1st gear! where is the properly spaced 6spd auto boxes already? phewfster
@speedfreak9 It means the vehicle is already moving when they mash the pedal instead from a dead stop. Unless you were being sarcastic.
I like it ,but y is the front bumper is plastic
is this the same 3.7? ughh its 2011 come on!!! 0 to 60 in 8.2 sec isnt bad but i thought dodge would throw the 3.6 in that suv
@TheBoosterv12 no it has plenty of space for regular size people. But I suspect you are assuming regular size american as regular size people
The Nitro is one of the few cars in the Chrysler lineup that haven't been redone since the partnership with Fiat.

@eclipse10101 thnks ... B/W wat dis number tells ??
n wat abt slalom?
why don't they lower and stiffer the suspention, give some 20'' rims and throw 5.7 Hemi under the hood, result will be small sporty crossower with 370+ hp
My 2011 4.0L has stock chrome 20"s.
@rockerdude29 Also why don't you go look at what most Toyotas get recalled for....

why does it fart when it changes gear??
@ChrisU354 are you sure your from germany ???????
Come 2 an abrupt stop and the thing turns in2 a rocking chair.
@tommypickles09
Yes, why would they choose something that didn't look like every other SUV out there? Why in the world didn't they buy a Ford Escape, or Honda CRV, or Toyota Rav4, so they could blend in with everyone else? How silly of them!
@J4AProductions sounds pretty good to me.
is this electric?
come on 16s @85mph? mine's alot faster just on motor/ no spray ! 102 octaine
Thanks for the vid guys
Dam look at that brake dive wobble
I got an orange one with chrome wheels for my 16 B-Day!
i also got one for my 16th bday lol. except you're probably 26 now. haha. anyways i love this thing, wonder where yours ended up?
What a piece of this .
The handling numbers are SO SO 80-ties.
Does it have nitro? :D
I love how dodge stole chevy's grand sport stripes :/
No lol dodge had their stripes long ago they had them im their 70s challengers
do the jeep lineup
How about a real world test of this thing. If you're only interested in 0-60 and quarter mile times...then this isn't for you. There should be tests for different vehicles in their respective categories.
@stonevrscx no thats part of the name
:O The address bar wants to feed me!
american cars are the best
you've been warned... GT-R
@johnherrera305 hell Yeah! Amen brotha!
@lbryan250 It's been out under that name for a while... like, five years.

Why waste?
whats so shocking?
buy the Jeep Liberty instead its the same thing
I want one...I love this car GAH lol
@ChrisU354 nothing i just wanted to know :))
Right up there with the Aztec and PT Cruiser. Why is Dodge trying to improve their image with this?
i just realized how big that car realy is haha
@ChrisU354 the best german car here in egypt is Mercedes Benz S-Class
maxthehulk Classic
@ChrisU354 you are soo wright
i dunno if this was a shock
UM MY BROTHER HAS A 4.0 NITRO R.T. AND MY MOM HAS A 3.7 LIBERTY I BEAT BOTH OF THEM EVERY TIME WITH MY BUICK LESABRE 3800 V6!!! DAMN, THEY GET MAD! 2005 BUICK LESABRE GS ONE YEAR ONLY SPECIAL EDITION SUPERCHARGED FROM FACTORY STOCK STOCK AND STOCK
@tommypickles09 why dont you like this car
@lbryan250 - If that were the case they'd have to call this the Dodge Balls.
@J4AProductions the worst sounding car ever is the toyota pryas ( makes no sound )
@ChrisU354 my opinion that american cars are good and it's thing of taste
so much suspension travel
@lafreak291: happy birthday!!!
@lafreak291 lol dude its my bday too!! :D
@Aaron77wil Nope I'm talking about Dodge. Chrysler has a far worse safety and reliability record than Toyota.
Chrysler is dodge dingus!
@randomstough awsome thats so cool
The only good thing about this is the splutter it makes when it shifts its gears.
needs exhaust, big time!!!
@flatblackstrat lololol.and in the past 5 years,how many recalls has toyota had? ;)
@lafreak291 it's my birthday too!!
it farts
@rockerdude29 Far far less than Chrysler. Quit being a fanboy and be objective.

no trim level, no power train info, no engine info = thumbs down
@jkeep31895 wtf are you talking about?
and we all wonder why dodge will go bankrupt in 2012
its my birthday so im bored
dodge bring back a freaking srt4 back at least instead of thisss or the caliver fuckkkk
they killed the neon based srt4 for this piece of shit
@trombonekingdom lol!
Marchionne, Sir,
Kill this thing already. You hate it, we hate it. Make it go away!
not a great chassis ...
haters :I
@GameUrg pretty much sums it up. I never understand why you have those die hard american car lovers who defend cars like this just because its american. I'm glad as an american I can refuse to put up with crap like we just seen here. If people stopped by shitty ass cars like this it would force american car manfucturers to produce better cars.
isnt the nitro one of the worst rated vehicles in history? i think its funny when comprehensive reviews prove a vehicle to be horribly unreliable, inefficient and shotty build quality and then i still see them on the road....
like hummer H2's.
dont people do 30 minutes of research before making a $30, 000 decision?
nitro? dodge names this car by what it doesn't have?
I never did like this thing. And seeing it here, doesn't make my opinion any better. Awefull styling, no leg room, poor built quality, choice of engines and fuel economy and not earodynamicaly thought of. Get rid of this thing.
all of chryslers newly updated cars look great, this looks like a giant turd.
Dodge, Jeep, whatever...
doesn't perform very well does it...I don't see the point of this car it's a good thing this is the last model year. but people, shut up about of the making fun of Chrysler...every car company makes mistakes and they all have atleast one bad car

i like dodge but that is just rubbish
