Black Metal flake

This car rocks. Great media center. Heated cloth seats and most other options. More than 30 MPG. I love this car and Wabash Valley Chrysler is one of the best! Doug Martin hooked me up with the Caliber. Black metal flake paint. Hot wheels. I highly recommend Wabash Valley and Doug Martin. Of course I also recommend you try a Caliber.

Looks ok, but drives bad

I don't own the car, but I'm renting a brand new vehicle from Enterprise with less then 1000 miles on it while my primary daily driver is in the body shop. Caliber has a poor finish. It looks alright, but the car is poorly assembled. It's noisy, the gearbox is lame, there is glue coming out of a shift lever. The rear hatch has to be slammed in order to close it and the passenger door is out of alignment.

I love this car! It has performed so well, and has been a joy to drive. I love the smoothness of the transition and the quietness of the cabin. It has been everything I wanted!

This car has been nothing but trouble since the day I purchased it. First, it poured down rain through the sun roof. Dodge claimed they never heard of this problem, but I found it all over the Internet. Because of Dodge's refusal to acknowledge it, it took 3 months to fix. Next, the check engine light kept coming on. On the third try, I was again able to find the problem and get them to fix it. This time, it could have killed me. The suspension system rusted out prematurely (12 years, 98,000 miles), and I made it to the repair shop just in time. According to the picture and service manager, it's shocking I wasn't killed in an accident before arriving. It rusted through so badly, the steering column and engine were barely being held up by a thread. I have the pictures to prove it. I wouldn't have another Dodge if someone gave it to me for free. I'm just thankful it never fell apart while my granddaughter was riding with me. Take my advice and don't buy a used Caliber. Thankfully they no longer are being made

This car was purchased in February 2011 and 3 month into owning the vehicle i notice rust, paint chips, and the rear window started getting a weird diamond pattern. Also, the car started to run rough.
