Caliber 4-cyl

  • 42,000 miles
I have a 2007 Dodge Caliber with 42,000 miles that I was told was a death trap!! several times I had to exit highways because I felt I was going to lose control of my car. I thought I was in need of tires. Not only was I in need of tires but the ball joints were completely worn. I was told by my mechanic in no way should this happen with a car with only 42,000. He also informed me he has seen many Calibers with the same issue. The cost to replace the ball joints/arms and tires was $1,000. Dodge needs to do something about this problem before someone is killed....issue a recall and refund to those who have had this problem!

Caliber

  • 36,000 miles
I had my car in with another complaint, the tire pressure gauge was leaking. While they had it on the hoist, they told me the tires were wearing unevenly due to damage to the tie rods. I only have 36,000. Miles on my car and it is a little over three years old. I am trying to get with their paying for at least part of the $700. Repair and cost of new tires.
