| Tipm-, battery terminals/holds downs, tbody. i found these issues and went to the dealer in relation to these problems after i had done my investigation. they saw me with the information i had, and began to run in the other direction. i told them what was wrong with the vehicle. i just had surgery and was inhaling the carbon from the vehicle. this is a major electrical issue and cad light problem. the vehicle only goes 20 mph. chrysler released this vehicle to its customers for loan or purchase with a faulty design in place. chrysler knew of this and proceeded to sale this vehicle in an order to make money and not looking at the risk that we as customers would be taking as well as them. chrysler didn't even bother to have a recall for this issue. i as a consumer feel cheated and want to be compensated for my loss. the vehicle is not in drive mode and i am not risking the life my son and i for this major mistake on their part. *tr | |||

| I am not sure if this is the correct catagory as far as the elec.sability control the mananul refers to it as the electronic throttle control when the light comes on. i have noticed that there is a recall for 2007 dodge calibers with this problem, but for some reason my vin/vehicle is not included in the recall as well as many many others with the same problem. i am thinking they do not know who to notify because if they did you would have several complaint at this time. my 2007 dodge caliber has caused me problems and unsafe moments for sometime now. the vehicle will sometimes start with the electronic throttle control light on right off the bat other times you could be cruising over a bridge and it will come on and decide to go 2 mph if even that. i had an incident with my grandbaby where we were turning left across a lane of traffic and the car decided to go 1-2 mph it was a good thing that the on coming traffic was out there far enough for us to get across. i have not and will not drive the car since. i still have a car payment and insuranse payment but cannot use the vehicle. i have been keeping up with the people on line and there is quiet a few that has had several scary situation like myself. there has been ones who have taken the vehicle in and the repair shop said there was nothing wrong.......then back out on the road they go and the problem happens again. one of these times someone will be crossing a very busy highway and could get in a bad wreck and die? we need your help???? | |||

| I own a 2007 dodge caliber r/t witch i purchased new. after the first 4 months of owning this vehicle. i noticed that every bump i hit, the car would sway back and forth on the road and noticed the stability was not good at all, even though i have the stability system program feature. i proceeded to take it in to the dealer and have it looked at. they assured me that it was fine. i just needed tires. i replaced all 4 tires and still had the same problem. so i brought the car in again and they then replaced the sway bar links and struts. i still have the same problem so i brought it in again and the dealer said it was fine. it is not fine! it is very dangerous and hard to control on a road that is not perfectly paved especially in rainy weather and winter months this vehicle has very bad traction and could cause an accident if unable to control, which i am trying to prevent from happening. i have spoken to other dodge caliber owners and they seem to have the same problem. now i'm experiencing water running into my car every time i turn on the ac or heat and hot water running on my foot while driving whenever i turn a corner. i would greatly appreciate if this matter is investigated and resolved. thank you *tr | |||
