ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER, STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
AFTER PURCHASING MY DODGE CALIBER IN FEBRUARY OR 2008 I NOTICED THE GAS GAUGE WAS NOT CONSISTENTLY ACCURATE. IT TOOK A TOTAL OF 6 MONTHS FOR SCHAEFER AND STROHMINGER TO "FIX" IT. I CALLED THEM AFTERWARDS TO TELL THEM IT WAS BETTER BUT NOT COMPLETELY CORRECT AND THEY PUT ME OFF SEVERAL TIMES. THEY SAID THEY WOULD CALL THE ENGINEER AND FOLLOW UP WITH ME. THAT NEVER HAPPENED EVEN AFTER THE CEO OF THE VEHICLE MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME I MET THE LEMON LAW REQUIREMENTS. DURING THIS TIME THE CAR BEGAN TO HESITATE FROM TIME TO TIME WHEN STARTING. I ALSO ASKED THEM ABOUT THAT PROBLEM. THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM AFTER HAVING IT IN THE SHOP TWICE. ABOUT A YEAR LATER THE CAR WOULDN'T START AND LEFT ME STRANDED AT WORK. IT WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP. I CALLED AHEAD TO TALK TO THE MECHANIC WHO KNEW EXACTLY WHAT MY PROBLEM WAS BECAUSE HE'D HAD SEVERAL OTHERS NEED TO BE REPLACED ALREADY IN THE CALIBER. IT WAS THE WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE. WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY THEY REPLACED IT. IT'S BEEN A FEW MONTHS NOW AND THE CAR HAS HESITATED WHILE STARTING 4 TIMES ALREADY. OBVIOUSLY THERE IS A FAULT IN THE WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE UNIT THEY ARE USING. FINALLY, I'M TAKING IT BACK TO HAVE THEM CHECK THE WATER IN THE DRIVER'S SIDE TAIL LIGHT AND WET CARPET BEHIND THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT. I'M VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THIS CAR AND DO NOT PLAN ON BUYING FROM DODGE OR SCHAEFER AND STROHMINGER AGAIN. *TR

SEATS
MY FRONT SEAT MAKES ANNOYING SQUEAKS WHEN TRAVELING ON ROAD IMPERFECTIONS, POT HOLES AND SPEED DUMPS AT ANY SPEED. I NOTICED THE SOUND WHEN MY CAR WAS IN THE MID 4,000 MILES. ALSO THE BRAKES WOULD SQUEAK WHEN I BRAKED IN REVERSE. MY CAR IS NOW 13,383 (SIX MONTHS LATE) AND I'VE TAKEN MY CAR TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND THE SEAT STILL SQUEAKS. THEY TIGHTENED BOTH FRONT SEATS AND THE TRACKS. THEY ALSO REPLACED ONE OF THE TRACKS DURING ANOTHER VISIT. EACH TIME I TAKE MY CAR IN THEY SAY THAT THEY HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM, BUT AS SOON I GO OVER THE SPEED BUMP WHILE EXITING THE DEALERSHIP, THE SEAT STILL SQUEAKS. I CALLED THE MANAGER FOR THE DEALERSHIP WHICH HE WAS THE ONE THAT HAD HELPED ME. HE IS ASKING FOR A SIXTH VISIT TO REPAIR THE SQUEAKING NOISE, BUT I DON'T THINK THAT THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. I'M SURE THAT A SQUEAK MAY NOT BE A BIG DEAL BUT IF THERE IS A SOUND THEN THAT MEANS THERE IS FRICTION WHICH OVER TIME WILL CAUSE WEAR TO THE SEAT AND MAY CAUSE A FAILURE TO HOLD IF IN A COLLISION. LASTLY, WHEN IDLING AT RED LIGHTS OR STOP SIGNS THE RHYTHM OF THE ENGINE RANDOMLY JERKS/BOGG AS IF IT FEELS LIKE IT'S ABOUT TO DIE OUT.*TR

TIRES
I BOUGHT A USED 2008 DODGE CALIBER WITH 14,100 MILES ON IT. THE TIRES WEREN'T RIGHT FROM THE NIGHT I BROUGHT IT HOME. I CALLED AND COMPLAINED, THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THEY PUT NEW BRAKES ON IT AND TO GIVE IT A FEW DAYS TO SEE IF IT WOULD GET BETTER. IT DID NOT, I STILL HAD A PULSING OR THUMPING NOISE IN THE FRONT END. I TOOK IT BACK, THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. I ASKED ABOUT THE TIRES AND I WAS TOLD "THE TIRES PASSED INSPECTION". I TOOK MY CAR TO A FRIEND WHO ROTATED AND BALANCED THE TIRES, AND WAS TOLD I HAD A BAD TIRE, IT WASN'T ROUND OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. THE BAD TIRE THEN WENT ON THE BACK PASSENGER SIDE. I THEN CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND TOLD THEM WHAT I DID, THEY WERE ANGRY AND SAID NOTHING WAS MECHANICALLY WRONG WITH THE CAR AND AGAIN THE TIRES HAD PASSED INSPECTION. AFTER MUCH ARGUING THEY AGREED TO EITHER PUT ON 4 NEW TIRES AT HALF THE COST TO ME OR PUT ON ANOTHER USED TIRE. I CHOSE TO HAVE ANOTHER USED TIRE PUT ON. THE CAR NOW PULSES OR THUMPS ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. I DIDN'T GET 5 MILES UP THE ROAD AND IT STARTED ALL OVER AGAIN. THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT CALIBERS ARE KNOWN FOR "CHOPPING TIRES" AND IF I GOT NEW TIRES TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE ROTATED WITHOUT FAIL EVERY 6K MILES. I DIDN'T EVEN CALL THE DEALERSHIP BACK ABOUT THE NOISE. I SENT IN A FORM COMPLAINING THAT THE NOISE WAS NOT RESOLVED. THEY WERE HORRIBLE TO EVEN TALK TO, THEY SAID TIRES WERE NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND THE 1/2 OFF THE TIRES WAS A ONE TIME OFFER. I LIKE MY CAR BUT I CAN'T STAND THE THUMPING NOISE THE TIRES MAKE. IF THE CAR IS KNOWN TO DO THIS WHY ISN'T SOMETHING BEING DONE TO CORRECT IT?? BECAUSE I BOUGHT THIS CAR AT A ROCK BOTTOM PRICE I CAN'T EXPECT TO HAVE NEW TIRES ON THE CAR AND I HAVE TO BASICALLY LIVE WITH IT I WAS TOLD SO THAT IS WHY I AM COMPLAINING. I PAID A LITTLE OVER $10000. FOR THIS CAR AND IT IS NEW TO ME, I STILL HAVE THE BALANCE OF THE FACTORY WARRANTY LEFT ON THE CAR. IT'S A NICE CAR TO ME AND IT IS A LOT OF MONEY TO ME. I JUST WANTED SOMEONE TO KNOW. *TR

SEAT BELTS
DURING A RECENT TRIP TO LAS VEGAS, MY PARTNER AND I RENTED A DODGE CALIBER. WE BELIEVE THERE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY FLAW IN THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEAT BELT SYSTEMS. DURING OUR TRIP WE HAD MANY INSTANCES WHEN OUR SEAT BELTS WOULD COME UNBUCKLED. AFTER EXAMINING WHY THIS WAS HAPPENING WE FOUND THE PROBLEM. IF YOU JUST BUCKLE YOUR SEAT BELT WITHOUT LOOKING, LIKE MOST AMERICANS DO, YOU CAN ACTUALLY PUT THE BUCKLE INTO THE PLASTIC LATCH HOUSING AND NOT THE LATCH ITSELF. IT FEELS VERY SIMILAR TO WHEN YOU CORRECTLY LATCH THE BELT. IT WILL ALSO HOLD IN THAT POSITION, BUT OBVIOUSLY NOT IN A CAR ACCIDENT. *TR

AIR BAGS
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 DODGE CALIBER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH IN RAINY WEATHER CONDITIONS AND AT NIGHT, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS CUT OFF THE ROAD BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. SUDDENLY, THE VEHICLE HYDROPLANED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND CRASHED INTO THE CEMENT BARRIER. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY AND THE THREE AIR BAG SENSORS WERE DESTROYED. THE CONTACT WAS SEVERELY INJURED. THE POLICE AND AMBULANCE WERE CALLED TO THE SCENE AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND TOWED TO THE COLLISION CENTER. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 6,400.

AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I WAS TRAVELING TO A T INTERSECTION; I WAS THE ONE WHO WAS REQUIRED TO MAKE THE LEFT OR RIGHT HAND TURN. MY BRAKES STOPPED WORKING AND I WENT FROM ~55MPH TO 45MPH OVER THE COURSE OF A FOOTBALL FIELD OR SO. I SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP COMPLETELY BUT THAT WASN'T THE CASE. IT WAS THE 2008 CALIBER SRT4. THE SRT4 HAS A MASSIVE BRAKE KIT FROM THE CHARGER AND MAGNUM ON IT WHICH SHOULD HAVE MADE IT STOP RELATIVELY QUICKLY. I MASHED MY VEHICLE INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE AT THE INTERSECTION AND MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I BELIEVE THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES AND AIRBAGS ON THE 2008 CALIBER SRT4. *TR

TIRES, TIRES:SIDEWALL
ON 09/19/2008, MY VERY FIRST STATE INSPECTION ON MY BRAND NEW VEHICLE, I WAS DENIED A WINDOW STICKER, AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS BECAUSE THREE OF MY TIRES HAD A SLIGHT BUBBLE ON THE SIDEWALL OF EACH. THESE ARE THE ORIGINAL TIRES THAT CAME WITH THE VEHICLE THAT I PURCHASED ON 02/29/2008. SO I CALLED GOOD YEAR AND THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO A SERVICE DEALER FOR INSPECTION OF THEM. I DID. THE TIRE COMPANY TOLD ME THAT THE TIRES ARE RADIAL TIRES, AND THEY NORMALLY DO HAVE THAT SLIGHT LITTLE BULGE ON THEM. MY POSITION IS " WHAT DO I REALLY KNOW" I AM BEING PUSHED BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THE TWO. MAYBE THE TIRE COMPANY DO NOT WANT TO GIVE NEW TIRES, AND MAYBE THE INSPECTION STATION WANTS TO DEFRAUD ME AS HE HAS SO MANY OTHER CUSTOMERS. HOW DO I REALLY KNOW IF THE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE. TAKE IT TO A INDEPENDENT TIRE COMPANY? IF I COULD AFFORD THE COST I WOULD BECAUSE SAFETY IS MORE IMPORTANT. BUT I DON'T HAVE THE CASH TO DO THAT. I'VE SEARCHED YOUR DATA BASE, AND FOUND A RECALL VERY CLOSE TO THE TYPE AS MINE BUT IT IS NOT THE EXACT NUMBER TIRE. SO IS IT REALLY TRUE THAT RADIAL TIRES HAVE A NATURAL SLIGHT BUBBLE ON THE SIDEWALL. *TR

PARKING BRAKE, EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
ON 08/09/08 I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO GET CHECKED; I HAD ALREADY BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAKE LIGHT COMING ON AT DIFFERENT TIMES. AT THAT MOMENT THE LIGHT WAS NOT ON AND THE SERVICE REP TOLD ME THAT THE LIGHT HAD TO BE ON IN ORDER TO CHECK THE VEHICLE EVEN AFTER I SHOWED HIM A RECENT VIDEO ON MY PHONE SHOWING THE LIGHT FLASHING. ON 08/12/08 I TOOK THE VEHICLE AS THE LIGHT WAS ONE, THEY ASKED ME TO BRING IT IN ON 08/14/08. I DROPPED OF MY VEHICLE ON 08/14/08 AND THEY FOUND THAT THE BRAKE SENSOR NEEDS TO CHANGED; SO THEY PLACED THE ORDER AND ASKED ME TO COME IN ON 08/19/08 TO HAVE IT REPLACED. DUE TO TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS ON THE 19TH, I DID NOT TAKE MY VEHICLE, WE RESCHEDULE FOR 8/21/08. DROPPING OFF MY VEHICLE ON 08/21/08 THEY CALLED ME IN THE EARLY AFTERNOON THAT MY VEHICLE WAS READY. THE NEXT DAY 08/22/08 THE LIGHT TURNED ON AGAIN; ON 08/25 OR 08/26 I CALLED CHRYSLER FINANCIAL TO COMPLAIN; THEY TOLD ME I NEED TO TAKE MY VEHICLE AGAIN WHEN ONLY THE LIGHT IS ON. ON 08/27 THE LIGHT TURNED ON AND I WENT AND SPOKE WITH THE MANAGER, HE PROMISED ME A DRIVER AT 7:00AM ON 09/02 TO BRING ME TO WORK SO I MAY LEAVE ME CAR; THAT PROMISE WAS NOT FULFILLED AND MY CAR FINALLY WENT IN ON 09/05 AS THEY NOW SEE IT AS A SAFETY ISSUE AFTER I HAVE BEEN SAYING IT IN THE BEGINNING. I AM WAITING FOR THE WEEKEND TO SEE IF THE LIGHT TURNS ON AGAIN ON MY VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD OTHER INSTANCE ABOUT 3 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE THAT THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF 2 TIMES! I TOOK IT TO THE SERVICE AND THEIR COMPUTER COULD NOT PICK-UP ANY CODES AND NEVER FOUND ANYTHING. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH MAROONE DODGE OF PEMBROKE PINES SERVICE. *TR

STRUCTURE, EQUIPMENT
MY COMPLAINT IS NOT FOCUSED ON THE AUTO MANUFACTURER. IT IS DIRECTED TOWARD THE AUTO INSURANCE INDUSTRY, AND IN PARTICULAR NATIONWIDE INSURANCE BASED IN COLUMBUS, OH. I WAS RECENTLY INVOLVED IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT, AND A NATIONWIDE CLIENT REAR-ENDED MY NEW 2008 DODGE CALIBER. IT WAS LESS THEN 1 WEEK OLD AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT, AND HAD FEWER THEN 300 MILES ON IT. NATIONWIDE PROMPTLY AGREED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE BY REPLACING THE BUMPER. HOWEVER, IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THE COMPANY'S POLICY IS TO REPLACE THE BUMPER WITH A REFURBISHED PART, OR A PART MADE BY A COMPANY THAT MAY NOT BE LICENSED OR REPRESENT MOPAR, THE PARTS COMPANY THAT SUPPLIES DODGE REPLACEMENT PARTS. I AM VERY CONCERNED NOT ONLY ABOUT LOSING VALUE FOR MY BRAND NEW CAR, BUT ALSO THAT MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGERS COULD BE POTENTIALLY COMPROMISED BY THE USE OF POSSIBLY INFERIOR PRODUCTS. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A GOVERNING BODY FOR THESE TYPES OF PARTS KNOWN AS CAPA, BUT I ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT NOT EVERY PART IS CERTIFIED BY CAPA, NOR COULD I FIND A CERTIFIED PART LISTED FOR THE REAR BUMPER OF A 2008 DODGE CALIBER. THIS IS SIMPLY NOT ACCEPTABLE, AND NATIONWIDE MUST REPLACE MY BUMPER (AND ANY UNSEEN DAMAGED PARTS) WITH GENUINE MOPAR-SUPPLIED PARTS TO RESTORE MY VEHICLE TO ITS ORIGINAL, SAFE, OPERATING CONDITION AS IT WAS PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE HASN'T EVEN BEEN FULLY BROKEN-IN YET. *TR

THE EXHAUST PIPE PROTRUDES TOO FAR FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE MAKING IT POSSIBLE FOR SMALL CHILDREN TO RECEIVE INJURY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS HOT. A SMALL CHILD IN OUR HOME RECEIVED A SECOND DEGREE BURN WHEN WALKING AROUND THE VEHICLE TO ASK A QUESTION. IN MERELY WALKING BY, THE CHILD WAS ABLE TO COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE VEHICLE'S EXHAUST PIPE CAUSING A BURN. *TR

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
MY BOYFRIEND AND I HAD A SINGLE CAR ACCIDENT IN MY 2008 DODGE CALIBER THIS PAST WEEKEND. DURING THE ACCIDENT WE WERE TRAVELING BETWEEN 40 AND 50 MPH IN FOG AND WERE UNAWARE THAT THE ROAD WE WERE ON ENDED IN THE SHAPE OF A "T". WE THEN FLEW IN THE AIR LANDED AND CRASHED THE WHOLE FRONT PART OF MY CAR. THE ANGLE AT WHICH WE LANDED WAS WITH THE FRONT OF THE CAR POINTED DOWN. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. HIS INJURIES INCLUDE 3 CHIPPED MOLARS ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF HIS MOUTH AND A PIECE OF FLESH MISSING FROM THE LEFT SIDE OF HIS MOUTH. HIS LEFT JAW IS ALSO SWOLLEN AND HE CAN HARDLY OPEN HIS MOUTH TO EAT. MY INJURIES INCLUDE A SWOLLEN LEFT KNEE, BOTH KNEES ARE SKINNED UP. MY LEFT SHOULDER AS AN IMPRINT OF MY LACE SHIRT ON IT AND IS SORE TO THE TOUCH, BOTH MY ARMS ARE IN PAIN AND THE LEFT IS SCRAPPED. I CAN'T LOOK TO EITHER SIDE WITHOUT HAVING TO MOVE MY WHOLE BODY AND I CAN'T LOOK UP WITH MY NECK. MY CHEST, RIBS AND BREAST BONE ARE ALSO SORE, SORE ENOUGH IN FACT THAT I HAD TO BE TAKEN TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM THE NIGHT AFTER BECAUSE I HAD THROWN UP THAT MORNING AND IT WAS HURTING TO BREATHE AND FROM THE STRESS I EITHER HAD A SEIZURE OR ANXIETY ATTACK. *TR
