my first new car!

I got my electric blue nitro dec. 29 and I love it!!!! I do have a few questions... Dose anyone have problems with the tire pressure light or tire pressure? Also dose your nitro pull slightly to the right? Other than that issue I love this car!!! Is there any north Dallas nitro meets or clubs!!

Hey welcome to the forum! I have had the tire pressure monitor screw up one time. I was driving in the summer and all of a sudden it said I had 13 psi in my driver rear tire. Then it went back to normal. I don't notice any pull with the Nitro. You might want to get your alignment checked.

If your having a pull this early, I would run back to the dealer and have them look at it.

You should not have to pay for an alignment after only a couple of weeks.

The TPS sensors are very sensitive to cold. The tire pressure will drop when it gets cold but I have found that the sensors read a couple of extra pounds light until they warm up a bit.

I push the pressure up a bit during the winter months since they aren't going to expand as much. I run 35-38 in the winter and around 33 or so in the summer. I see no difference in the ride and it gives me a bit longer before it bleeds down to the 30 pound level that you start getting warnings.

Good luck with your new ride.

Welcome!
Hope you get your issues cleared up quickly... post pics when you can.

thanks all, yeah I just have the signal that shows if pressure is low. So I don't know what tire or how much . Yeah when I go back to the dealership to get my plates tomorrow I am going to set up an apointment to get it checked out. I can't wait to deck this thing out!!!!

I also bought my wife her very first new car about 6 months ago by researching all the crossovers and suv's. She decided on the Nitro R/T with a sunroof and is smiling every day. The only concern I have may be bitter/sweet and wonder why you don't see many Nitro's on the steet or interstate. That's both good and maybe bad. Good, because she own's a vehicle that gets a lot of notice, honks, and waves. Could be bad because maybe others see something we didn't. We're going with good and how can a person lose with "Lifetime Warranty" ? In 6 months and 4400 miles, we've had absolutely no issues other than the dealership messing it up a bit. They applied surplus tire shine prior to delivery and after getting home, we had spots thrown all over the lower body . Wasn't a body shop in town that could remove the spots as the tire shine stained the paint. The dealership stood behind their prep-shop error and re-painted the bottom from front to rear. It probably wouldn't have been noticed if the color wasn't white, so take notice....don't use tire shine !!!
