The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Caliber. The contact was traveling at an unknown speed when the driver side door panel suddenly caught on fire. The contact was able to extinguish the fire with a bottle of water. The fire department stated that the failure was caused by the power window motor. The dealer advised that the vehicle was no longer under warranty and would not service the vehicle. The manufacturer advised they had not received any similar complaints to hers and would not provide any further assistance. The vehicle was not repaired.

When it is cold out, and there is any type of precipitation. The power windows will not roll down. You have to either beat on the windows, wait over an hour for the car to warm up, or use a spray dicer (have not tried this yet).
