I HAVE A DODGE 2011 CALIBER..I RECENTLY BOUGHT IT BACK ON MAY 4,2011..WITHIN ONE WEEK I HAD A WATER LEAK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I TOOK IT INTO THE SHOP AND THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM. ABOUT TWO WEEKS AFTER THAT I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AND THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND I WENT TO GO AND MY CAR DIDN'T MOVE. I HAD CARS BEHIND ME SO I STARTED MY CAR UP AGAIN AND IT WENT. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME "DON'T BRING IT IN LETS DO A TIME SPAN TO SEE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN." TWO WEEKS AFTER THAT I WAS TAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN ONTO A STREET AND IT SHUT OFF AGAIN. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND I TOOK IT IN TO THEM THE NEXT DAY. THEY HAD IT FOR ALMOST TWO WEEKS AND SAID THEY CODED THE ABS MODULE AND I THOUGHT THAT WAS WEIRD BECAUSE MY LIGHT DIDN'T COME ON. SO THEY WENT AHEAD AND PUT A NEW ONE IN. SO I GOT IT BACK ON THE MONDAY AND ON THE FRIDAY I WAS TAKING A LEFT HAND TURN AND MY CAR CUT OFF AGAIN. THAT WAS ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO AND THEY STILL HAVE MY CAR. THEY CALLED AND TOLD ME THAT THEY ARE GOING TO UPDATE MY SOFTWARE. AS OF RIGHT NOW I REALLY DO NOT WANT THAT CAR BACK. IT IS A VERY UNSAFE CAR AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY I HAVE TO HAVE IT IF THE SAME PROBLEM STILL OCCURS. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER BUT THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT THIS ACCORDING TO LEMON LAW. *TR

CAR HAS STALLED ROUGHLY 7-9 TIMES. SEVERAL TIMES IT HAS STALLED WHILE COMPLETELY STOPPED BEHIND ANOTHER VEHICLE OR AT A RED LIGHT AND 2 TIMES HAS STALLED WHILE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN AND I ALMOST GOT NAILED BY ON-COMING TRAFFIC. THE IGNITION IS STICKING WHEN STARTING AND THE CAR IS HESITATING LIKE CRAZY. I NOTICE THE CAR HESISTATES A LOT AND SOME TIME THAT DAY MY CAR WILL STALL. THE AIR-CONDITIONER IS USUALLY ON WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLS. I'VE HAD IT BACK INTO THE SHOP 2XTHIS WEEK TODAY WILL BE MY 3RD WITHIN A 10DAY TIME PERIOD. THEY CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND I'M TERRIFIED TO KEEP MY 2 YR OLD IN THIS VEHICLE! *TT

2011 DODGE CALIBER 2.0. HAS STALLED 5 TIMES WHILE DRIVING. JUST STOPS! THE IGNITION STICKS AS WELL. THIS CAR ONLY HAS 1200 MILES ON IT. THE STALLING OCCURS JUST WHILE DRIVING - NO SPECIFIC WARNING..JUST SHUTS DOWN. *KB

WAS DRIVING CAR , TOOK A LEFT HAND TURN AND CAR DIED IN MIDDLE OF INTERSECTION , HAD ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO CARRY CAR THROUGH INTERSECTION SO THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT. THE CAR STARED RIGHT BACK UP SEEMED FINE. THE A/C WAS ON BUT THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE AN EFFECT ON IT. THE CAR DID THE SAME THING 3 DAYS BEFORE THIS AND I WAS NOT TURNING , I WAS STOPPING BEHIND A CAR THAT WAS TURNING. EACH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED THE A/C WAS ON AND IT WAS WITHIN 5 MILES OF FIRST STARTING THE CAR. I DID NOTICE THE RPM DROP AND THEN IT SEEMED LIKE TO CATCH ITSELF AND REV BACK UP. SEEMS LIKE IT IS RELATED TO THE TORQUE CONVERTER IN THE TRANSMISSION OR WITH THE PROGRAMMING OF THE ECU. BRINGING IT TO DEALER FIRST THING IN AM.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR ON 4/11/2011, AND THIS CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING THE FIRST TIME AT 402 MILES , IT HAS HAPPENED ANOTHER FOUR TIMES. THE CAR DIES LIKE THE KEY WAS SHUT OFF NO WARNING OF ANY KIND. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER 06/22/2011 AND AS USUAL THEY COULD FIND NO PROBLEM WITH IT. I DO KNOW THAT DODGE HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH THE 2010 CARAVAN, (FALTY WIN MODULE) SO I WOULD THINK THAT SOMEONE WOULD BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT THAT THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS SITUATION MUST BE TAKEN CARE OF BEFORE SOMEONE GET'S KILLED BECAUSE THEIR CAR DIED WHILE IN TRAFFIC

THE 2011 DODGE CALIBER I PURCHASED HAD SEVEN (7) MILES ON IT WHEN I TEST DROVE IT. THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AT THE STOP LIGHT AND WHILE IN MOTION. MOST OF THE STALLS WERE EXPERIENCED AFTER MAKING A TURN. IT HAS STALLED FIVE TIMES. I HAVE NOT REACHED THIRTY DAYS OF OWNERSHIP. THE IGNITION SWITCH HAS STUCK WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE AT LEAST EIGHT TIMES. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN FOR SERVICE TWICE. THE DEALERSHIPS STATED THEY ARE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE STALL OR THE IGNITION STICKING ON THE FIRST SERVICE VISIT. ON THE SECOND SERVICE VISIT, THEY AGAIN REPORTED THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE STALL, BUT DID ACKNOWLEDGE THE IGNITION STICKING AND REPORTEDLY REPLACED THE IGNITION. THE IGNITION STUCK WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE TO LEAVE THE DEALERSHIP AND STALLED TWO DAYS LATER. I HAVE EXPERIENCED NEARLY BEING STRUCK BY APPROACHING TRAFFIC AS I MADE A LEGAL LEFT TURN AND BARELY CLEARED THE INTERSECTION. *TR
