My throttle body keeps going in and out which cause me to have to get an alternator replaced twice plus a crankshaft twice. Now my car is smoking which is the valve cover gasket. Also my car lights went out one at a time so my driver side lights wnt work at all in the front and the passenger side front won't work just my signal on the passenger side. Also my dashboard won't work properly it keeps goin on and off as I turn on other lights in my car. When I signal left my car light on the roof comes on. I spent $12000 on this car from a dealership and have done nothing but put money into it more than I paid for it.

Passenger side headlight and driver's side tail light not working. Bulbs have been replaced and tested as to being good. Went on internet and found this to be a very common problem with Dodge and Chrysler vehicles, many times requiring replacement of the TPIM. Grounds have been checked as good. Dealer says repair requires replacement of the TIPM for $1,600!! Vehicle lighting are safety items covered by vehicle laws. These are safety issues and customers should not be held hostage for ransom for their poor design. Dodge and Chrysler should be replacing these TIPMs when they start failing without cost to customers.

I was driving at night time and my left side lowbeam headlight went out. Then briefly after the right side. I put my highbeams on to finish my trip home and then right before I made it home they both went out. Upon having the vehicle diagnosed it would be a $1000 part plus labor known as the TIPM. My friend has his own garage and he jumped power from my foglights. My headlights now work but he said he won't be long until other things start failing. Now my dash lights went out 2 weeks ago while I was on the interstate. I immediately pulled over and tried turning the car off and on and nothing. So I turned on my hazard flashers and drove 25 miles home with no dash lights. They will flicker on and off so rapidly I turned my dimmer switch the whole way down so it doesn't distract me while driving. Apparently the TIPM in these cars is a widely known issue after very little research I found over thousands of failed units in people's vehicles. Dodge should be liable for this mess!

The electronic throttle control went out on me as I was entering the freeway. The etc is basically the car losing all power but the vehicle does not shut off only the gas peddle loses all power. It was very scary when your litteraly carrying your entire family including your doggy.

2007 Dodge Caliber. The tipm box is malfunctioned, and continues to be. This is an issue associated with the stock, factory tipm box.

- Forney, TX, USA

The tips is shorting out. Going to cost 2200 to fix. This is a recall in other vehicles around the same year. Why does it not apply to the Caliber. Seems to be an issue. Looked into several forums with same issue that keeps popping up.

- Ypsilanti, MI, USA

This problem occurs when the vehicle is stationary and in motion. The vehicle will start to freak out by losing all of its gauges and controls, also the air bag, electrical, ABS and check engine will come on. There was no warning signs when this initially occurred. I took it to a dealer and they claimed the it was the tipm (total integrated power module) and its super common with Dodge products. I was informed that there is a recall on other Dodge products for this very issue but not the Caliber. I do not understand this nor how if this is a problem on other models from the same year it can be covered under warranty but not for this car.

The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Caliber. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the headlights failed to illuminate. Additionally, the brake lights remained illuminated while driving. The contact that the driver's and passenger's side ball joints and tie rods were replaced several times at brandywine Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram (3807 kirkwood hwy, wilmington, de 19808).

I was driving and the battery light came on. Later on when about 100 miles from home there are several other lights that come on and then while running approx 60mph the car just shuts down in the middle of the road. After replacing the alternator and battery the battery light continues to stay on. I take the car to a local garage to find out the tipm needs to be replaced which appears to cost over $1000 in which I do not have to spend.

- Berea, KY, USA

I recently purchased the vehicle from the original owner. The vehicle light flashes while driving. The mileage is currently 91K miles. Now the lightening bolt symbol will not turn off and the vehicle will not accelerate over 39 miles. I have not been able to drive the vehicle for over a week.

- Mccarley, MS, USA

I have had this problem since the beginning of ownership. The car won't start, I have had so many batteries thinking this was the problem. The car won't start even with a new battery or the battery will have to be replaced within months. I plan to go somewhere and can't because it won't start...like right now. I haven't been able to start it in days. Sometimes by wiggling the wires I can start it but now it is so bad it won't start.

- Scottsdale, AZ, USA

Started vehicle which had been running perfectly fine, just got a oil change a few days prior. Started driving and the car starts sputtering like it was going to die. The etc symbol started to flash and car would only go 5-10 mph when this happened I was already driving at 40mph when the car just started to slow down to the 5 miles and sputter.

Only one headlight will illuminate, even after replacement. This is a commonly reported issue with defective totally integrated power module (tipm) units on this model. The exact same tipm units have been recalled on other models using the part, but not for the Caliber. This is a safety issue since more than one headlight can fail at any time. The consumer should not have to pay for a defect like this.

- Livermore, CA, USA

The throttle light came on and now my car is wont pick up speed only 10mph and its puttering and jerking. So I replaced the throttle body unit and did a relearn on the car and its still acting funky. I saw its a recall on the 2007 Dodge cablier other ppl are complaining about this same problem.. its very unsafe to drive a car like this with my family

- Milwaukee, WI, USA

Cluster lights, back lighting for climate control knobs and tail lights flicker three times and then go off. This happens any time when turning on lights, whether at vehicle start-up or when driving down highway. Makes for unsafe night time driving.

- Columbus, OH, USA

There is a known issue with the tipm in these vehicles and they have been recalled in other models with the same tipm when this module fails the headlights stop working and there is no repair other then paying Dodge to fix it and they want 1000$ they have recalled other models of Chrysler Jeep and Dodge which have this same module but not the Caliber. I believe this should be addressed. My lights failed when I was driving at night. So this is a major issue.

- Asheville, NC, USA

The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Caliber. The contact stated that the passenger side high beam lamp was inoperable. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the fuse box and electrical harness failed and needed replacement. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000. The VIN was unavailable.

- Pinesville, GA, USA

When in cruise control at between 70-75 mph and going up a long incline (cajon pass) the electrical light comes on and the car quits running, and to date starts again after losing about 5mph after several heartbeats. This has been happening intermittently since the car was new with less than 6000 miles on it.
