CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2007 Dodge Caliber has all kinds of suspension problems at relatively low mileage: typically 40-50,000 miles.

The most commonly reported problems are with ball joints & control arms going bad. Tie rods & leaking struts are also reported failing in the same mileage range.

Unfortunately all the suspension problems means some owners only find out after they notice their tires are ruined.

We've given the 2007 Caliber our worst rating because these problems happen at such low mileage, & it involves a wide range of apparently defective parts. With most other cars, major suspension work is pretty rare under 50,000 miles.

I changed my spark plugs to Bosch Platinum trying to get better than 23.5 MPG. The MPG when to 17.5, I than went to the auto parts store and got AC Delco and the fuel MPG was only 20 MPG. I than got he OEM plugs NGK V-Power and the MPG went back to 23.5 (this engine wants only NGK at the correct gap to run correctly). Have never gotten the MPG that was claimed by dodge.
