Automatic Transmission Problems of Dodge Nitro

I bought a Dodge Nitro 6 months ago several times I have went to pull out into traffic and the Nitros transmission will not pull but just a few feet, I have taken it to the dealer twice and they can not find any problem. When this happens it gives me no indication before hand. When I pull out it will sound like a bunch of grinding and jerking. I really fear for me and my children's safety. It is still under warranty but I cant seem to get the help or answers on what is wrong.

The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Nitro. The contact stated that the vehicle rolls backwards continuously. When the failure occurs, the entire engine shuts off. She has been working with the dealer and manufacturer for over a year, but they are not assisting and will not inspect the vehicle. The contact has received two recall notices, but the failure has not been repaired. The recall numbers were unknown. The current and failure mileages were 6,500.

Nitro vibrates between 38- 42 mph as though it was in over drive. Not enough power at that speed in over drive. V-6 engine was supposed to get 18-24 mpg, we got 14 city ,18 highway. Very hard shifting. Been to dealer 4 times so far with no correct results. Also, died at stop signs at times.

2007 Dodge Nitro 4x4 transmission when upshifting stalls/shudders from 25-35 mph, may lead to accident.

I purchased a Dodge Nitro in October of 2006. Since then I have had it stall out on me, on the highway, twice and re-start automatically. It's pretty unsafe to be driving a car at 80mph on the interstate and have it stall out and restart on you for no apparent reason. I know I am not the only Nitro owner who has had this issue. When I explained to the service department at the dealership about this they said since they cannot recreate the problem they cannot diagnose it. I have not called Chrysler yet, but I am about to. I don't want to die, or cause the death of others, because my car is malfunctioning beyond my control. Something needs to be done about this.

I have a 2007 Dodge Nitro. Since about 400 miles there has been a hesitation/bucking while trying to maintain a steady speed. It has been to the dealership 3 times, once a month since purchased on Nov 25, 2006. The problem has still not been corrected and I am now told that the hesitation/bucking at all speeds is "normal".
