2008 Dodge Nitro Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

Comfortable, reliable, spacious, lots of power plugins, auto oil change reminder, tire pressure system, thermometer, car seat anchors, easy fold down back seats, power windows and locks, radio controls on steering wheel.

Leather interior, touchscreen radio, heat and ac work well, ability to lay down seats to haul things, and 4x4. It also has cruise control, a sunroof, a built in DVD player, and a v6 engine. I also like the heated seats especially during the winter.

Reliability, available parts, space, 4 wheel drive, look, steady wheel grip, easy to park, great highway, breaks do not go bad often, easy to unlock, seatbelts in all seats, space for 5, laches nice in trunk.

4WD, good for small families, good size. I really like the style, and how it runs. It is very family friendly, seats 5 people and the roof is high enough that you do not bump your head easily. Very good in winter when it's slippery out.

It drives good, durable, very spacious, and love the 4wd. Has easy upkeep on it. With it being used when bought and being a 2008 it is still in well shape but the repairs are not cheap at all. We have had to put a new motor in costing 5000 dollars and a few other expensive repairs, that would be my only complaint.

Comfortable, a lot of legroom in passenger side as the glove box is molded into front. A lot of cargo room in back seat and clear back. It is size is easy to park and drives nice. Pretty easy on gas and the moon roof is great with two settings. It is also easy to see out of if you are short like I am.

Everything's electronic or runs off sensors, had problems with the back hatch not closing all the way and making the inside lights come on spontaneously, sometimes oil change reminder does not shut off and alerts me every time I start the vehicle.

It has horrible gas mileage, the vehicle is white which I do not love, it can be hard to change the touchscreen radio when you are driving down the road. I also do not like the model that I have had 20 inch wheels because that makes the tires more expensive as well limits them gas mileage.

Gas shoots out when full, water pump goes out often, tires wear fast, hood comes UNC. Latched sometimes, seatbelt in drivers side dings often when buckled, passenger airbag dings when heavy objects other than human is in seat.

It is getting older, now that it is 2020 it is 12 years old. If you have a large family you might want more seats than this offers. Not a lot of storage space, the trunk is a regular size but can't store much under the latch because the spare tire is there.

I like it alot because it is very spacious, you can load it up for moving or just a vacation and still room for the pets. It drives very well, off road, interstate, any type of ground to drive on it does well. The four wheel drive especially comes in handy during the winter, drives well even on the ice. Some repairs are minor and inexpensive but have also had some expensive repairs as well like most vehicles.

My vehicle has. Problem with rust on the hatchback. Door around the lock. It has totally shut down once when the computer went haywire. Turned on lights and windshield wipers went on. Horn blew and it left me set. After shutting everything off and removing battery wires, it started up again without any problem. The air conditioning has been a pain as the whole dash had to be removed to fix. But, it is not a new vehicle.
