Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The tips is shorting out. Going to cost 2200 to fix. This is a recall in other vehicles around the same year. Why does it not apply to the caliber. Seems to be an issue. Looked into several forums with same issue that keeps popping up.
I have had this problem since the beginning of ownership. The car won't start, I have had so many batteries thinking this was the problem. The car won't start even with a new battery or the battery will have to be replaced within months. I plan to go somewhere and can't because it won't start...like right now. I haven't been able to start it in days. Sometimes by wiggling the wires I can start it but now it is so bad it won't start.
Started vehicle which had been running perfectly fine, just got a oil change a few days prior. Started driving and the car starts sputtering like it was going to die. The etc symbol started to flash and car would only go 5-10 MPH when this happened I was already driving at 40mph when the car just started to slow down to the 5 miles and sputter.
I was sitting at a stop sign when my ABS and engine light started flashing and this annoying dinging started I made a left turn and my tires would be out of control making me think I was having a steering problem ,just parking would be a problem and this annoying sound would stay on until u park the car this was done on a highway I was told by a dodge dealership that it was my ABS module and that it needed to be replaced so I check for a recall and find out there are recalls for the same make model and year on a lot of other cars but not my VIN#.
For the second time this year, I have lost all headlights, air conditioning, engine dying randomly while driving, safety lights flashing and beeping on dashboard. The tipm module is going out again. This part is nearly $1,000 and only a dodge dealership is able to fix this issue. There are issues worldwide with this same part in multiple dodge cars since 2007 and nothing has been done to fix this issue
My front head lights are not working it has to to do with the fuse box that is locate under the the bumper ,that it get wet and the snow and salt through the years .I have to drive my car doing the day only .the fuse box is corroded it .
My car horn, lights, power windows will not work and the car will not start the car stopped without warning and my lights when off. Now the car does not turn on at all after getting a tow truck to my mechanic he stated that my power train module needed to be re program but he could not do it so I had to get another tow truck to take the car to the dealer which told me I have to replace my tipm @ $1700. Plus tax. Too expensive this s/b cover by dodge this was scary for my car to stopped while I was driving I could have kill myself and someone else I already paid over $200. In tow trucks
I have had issues with this vehicle such as the o2 sensors that has to be repaired every year. The safety issues with this vehicle if you are at stop sign or just idle in traffic- the engine light will begin to blink and the car begins to move back and forth..also, it constantly over heats after much repairs- these symptoms continue to persist-the gentleman at good year told me that some of your parts o2 sensor was recalled- failed to get assistance from chrysler- the overheating is annoying- I can not drive over 45 miles without over heating. I had to pull over at the exit while other cars- with incoming traffic was coming very fast and the car is in motion on the highway with other drivers- because the car begins to pull - I have to pull over so that the engine can cool down- ..sometimes in traffic- the ABS light will come on and begin to shift gears in traffic- this happens occasionally. The safety issues are engine overheats, start jerking back and forth at stop signs or just being idle in traffic, occasionally just shift acceleration in the middle of traffic. Th most recent incident was last night- I had to pull over- car started jerking- it overheated- 07-19-2017 I am filing another complaint- called chrysler said that I had to pay for the diagnostic testing on something that is their manufacturer fault.
The front end makes all kinds of noises. Locks dont work cant open trunk.head lights work when they want to.
