  • Reliable, Sharp, Fun - 2007 Dodge Caliber
    By -

    I bought this as a used fleet car at 16,000 miles. Its the 2.0 CVT SXT. I have had no problems thus far. The tires have been changed eliminating any road noise. AC is cold at 30 degrees lower than outside temp, chillzone stays at 65 to 75 degrees with ac on and vent open. I replaced the stock speakers but left the stock radio. I get avg. 28 city/ 32 highway mpg. Plenty of spunk for stop lights and city traffic dodging. Handles well, and will spin tires. Doesnt haul butt, 0-30 in 3 seconds and 30-60 in another 9 seconds. But, it is a clean looking car thats fun to drive with acceptable mpg and features. The new 2008s have more standard features now, but Im glad to own an original.

  • Is this a prototype? - 2007 Dodge Caliber

    Overall, I like my Dodge Caliber. There are tons of neat little storage places and innovative interior features. The body design is new and different, and I love it. The engine bogs down a lot on inclines and from a stand still. The design has way too many blind spors especially when backing up. I was nervous about buying a vehicle in the first model year, and I dont think my skepticism is unfounded, but I dont have nearly as many issues as I had feared. The AC is having some issues along with the rear defroster. Overall, the car is good and I will definitely drive it for years to come.

    I love this car! I traded my Mustang for a more reliable vehicle as I travel often, and I love it, Ive had no issues with it since I purchased the vehicle with 28,000 miles, Ive so far put 12000 miles, traveled to las vegas and san diego back to new mexico with no issues! this has been a great car for me and my family

  • Beware, stay away, run for you life - 2007 Dodge Caliber
    By -

    Ive own this car since March 2007 and had a first great year, thats it! Ever since my car have been to the dealership almost every month. I had and still have the squeak sound in the back suspension, the mechanics seem to be clueless about it even after they changed from the chock to the bushings and some other things then the was and still is something weird. When I start the car, the RPM rev up and down about 5 seconds and if I try to put it in reverse the motor just stops and its hard to start it again and I have to wait until the car warms up about 15 mins to be able to leave and sometimes the motor even totally stops at a red light.

  • Love It - 2007 Dodge Caliber

    Weve had our Caliber for a couple of months and we love it. It does not have much "get up and go", but feels sturdy and safe. Theres a lot of steep grades in our area & it handles them beautifully. Comfy inside, but blind spots are hard to get used to, especially in reverse. Gas mileage is fantastic, we average about 30 miles/gal. Storage space is excellent. Love its look and overall feel. Well see how it handles in winter.

  • Im Keeping this one forever!!! - 2007 Dodge Caliber
    By -

    After reading all the other reviews, I cant believe how lucky Ive been with my car. In fact, Im retiring in 6 years and plan on keeping this car for my retirement car. Ive had over 20 cars in the past (sports cars too) but really put this one close to the top. We had 48 inches of snow on the ground last year, and I never once had a problem with driving! Handles great-- and this is on snowy, curvy country roads. Chrysler offers a Lifetime Warranty now (if you have the lifetime powertrain) and Im in the process of purchasing that--just in case. The only thing Ive had go wrong, is the signal switch broke last week and it had to be replaced. Not bad for 410000 miles!

    I have only had my car for a week so far I love it. I also have a Ram 1500. and to me this is a mini ram. It is fun to drive and turns heads where ever we go. I hope we will have a long relationship. It has great gas mileage.

  • Joyful but concerned - 2007 Dodge Caliber
    By -

    I really love my car except the gas mileage keeps getting worse. I used to get 340 to 360 miles to the tank and now Im lucky to get 300. Ive been told it depends on the driver and the conditions but Im not the only one complaining. Maybe Dodge will take notice and fix this.The seats are wonderful! I have a bad back and these seats make all the difference after a long drive. Take off isnt fast but after first gear, youre really moving. It hugs corners very well but the blind spot needs improvement. The arm rest could be more sturdy and maybe have less rattling when extended. I really didnt pay attention to the interior problems until the gas mileage started going down. It makes me worry more.

  • Dodge Caliber Rocks - 2007 Dodge Caliber
    By -

    Bought my car in June and has already been to RI, VT, & MA besides driving me to the beaches. Love the car, it handles well, and is fun to drive. Had many many compliments on it already and I want to hang on to it when my son gets his license six (long I hope) years away. Both husband and son are tall and we have plenty of room.

  • Enjoying my Caliber - 2007 Dodge Caliber
    By -

    I purchased my first Caliber back in 4/06. It was white and the only one available on the lot as they are sold so quickly. So I bought it. I kept returning to the dealership until I saw a red Caliber in Oct. and traded my car on the spot. It cost me a over $1,000 plus more money to trade than I thought it would, but I believed that since this would be my last new vehicle purchase it had to be the color I wanted. The red is such a hot, beautiful red (pearl), I drove off with it that very day. I have only one complaint. The steering wheel does not shift up and down enough. It hardly moves at all. A little larger trunck space would be great.
