Caliber

  • 62,000 miles
The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Caliber. The contact stated that while driving, the vehicle stalled and would not restart. The vehicle was towed to the contact's home. The contact's spouse (a mechanic) took the rear seat out and discovered that the wires to the fuel pump were burned out which caused them to melt and to affect the fuel pump. The failure occurred twice and the contact had to purchase a new fuel pump within a span of a year. The vehicle had not been taken to an authorized dealership and the contact had not spoken with the manufacturer at the time of the complaint. The failure mileage was approximately 62,000.
