Three problems related to brake light have been reported for the 2007 Dodge Nitro. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
(1) the brake light on top of my tail gate is out. The cost of this light is $79. 50. The cost of the other 2 side brake lights is $2. 50 each. I will go to jail for having a light out before I pay $80. For this 3rd light. What do I do? (2) the front amber marker lights have gone out. These lights are only $2. 50 each but it will cost me $95 to change one of them because the front of the car has to come off to change it. This should be illegal. What do I do? (3) the door mounted rear view mirrors are too big and mounted too high. The mirror along with the windshield post creates a huge blind spot when looking for traffic coming from the right or when turning to the left. At least once a month I almost pull out into a car in that blind spot. Very dangerous and poor engineering. What do I do?.

Interior door handles keep breaking easily. Would result in fatality in case of fire. Brake lights keep going out with new bulbs. It's electrical problem. Very dangerous to other drivers on road as well as passengers.
