2 windows stopped working a few years apart. The last time was 2019. Both rolled down but would not go up
What good does it do to complain if auto maker won't do anything. Unfortunately I am in a financial situation on social security that does not allow me to purchase another auto 😡

On 3/21/18 I was driving through a major intersection when the battery dash light came on in my truck. I found this to be odd since I had just had a brand-new battery installed on in my truck on 1/8/18, then the following events occurred in rapid succession: all of the dash warning lights came on, the A/C which was on at the time and blowing very cold air, began blowing hot air, I attempted to roll down the electric powered windows and they would not work; the windshield wipers came on without prompting.
I quickly decided to turn around and go back home since I was a short distance away. I decided to take a route through a residential neighborhood since I was unsure what would happen next and thought it would be best not to be on a major roadway if anything further occurred. I made a left into the residential neighborhood and noticed my truck was moving very sluggish and making a weird noise. I was approaching a stop sign up ahead; however, before I could apply the brakes my truck just cut off. I quickly put the gear in park and attempted to turn on my hazard light for oncoming traffic to go around me but I realized at this point my truck had absolutely no power. A gentleman on a bicycle stopped to assist me and we decided it would be best if he pushed my truck around the corner I was stalled at, to keep from obstructing oncoming traffic. He instructed me to put the truck in neutral but I was unable to do so, I could not turn the car on nor could I move it out of park gear.
The street I was stopped on is a major road for entering and exiting the neighborhood that I was attempting to pass through to get home. The street I was on is a major road for entering and exiting the neighborhood that I was attempting to pass through to get home. I stood at the back of my truck and directed traffic to go around me, I called AAA for a tow, when the driver arrived he attempted to jump the battery but it would not turn on or over. He had to slide under my truck to disconnect something in order to place the truck in neutral to get it on the tow truck.
I have not had any work or diagnostics performed on my truck as I am recently unemployed and do not have the funds to pay for the costs associated with either. However, I have conducted research online and discovered a multitude of reviews, blogs, news stories and feedback from others who experienced the same issues which appear to be associated with the TIPM’s (Totally Integrated Power Module known as a faulty manufacturers issue.

I am really tired of the cheap plastic parts breaking on this car. The inside trim, door handles, rear seat panels and now the pulleys for the power windows. As I entered the car I heard a loud noise in the rear seat area. The rear door window had fallen into the door. After removing the inside door panel, I found pieces of plastic pulley and hanging cables. I cant wait to find out what Dodge Will charge for the replacement parts.

Three out of four windows are broken. Two of the three broke within a day of each other; one on 09/11/12 and 09/12/12. The thing about the Nitro is it does not matter if the cable breaks or only a component of windows; the entire regulator will need to be replaced.

Why should you have to roll the passenger side window up with the button that is on the driver's side. I am looking for the cable to break on this one too. What a joke. I've never in my life had as much trouble with a vehicle's electrical as I have with this one.

The driver side door window button would roll windows down, but wouldn't roll them back up. I had to reach over to the passenger side button to roll the window back up. The only solution was to replace the driver side door button system and now it works again.

closing multiple windows (2 each) at the same time caused electrics on the radio and console to flicker and reset. Not a big deal just have to take the windows up one at a time
