Overview & Reviews
A retuned suspension and revised brakes are some of the major changes for the 2009 Dodge Nitro. The six-speed manual transmission has been dropped, and all trims now come standard with an automatic transmission (a four-speed for SE and SLT trims; a five-speed for R/T models).
- Over-the-top style, flexible cabin design, quiet highway ride.
- Mediocre gas mileage, slow steering lacks feedback, a few chintzy interior materials.

Could be better! - 2009 Dodge Nitro
By kenny - March 25 - 12:35 pmDont let the look fool you. We had problems with the vehicle after a year of ownership, with the wheel bearings. Specifically the hub on both front wheels and the cost was over 900.00 dollars. Also the winter had done its part in damaging our vehicle. With some mud getting onto a sensor(ESP) that is connected to the rear wheel was damaged. The cost to repair this was around 2000.00 dollars(parts and labor).
