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 always had dodge until bought dodge caliber when driver side window just crashed, meaning dropped down and press button not working. that was on nov, day before thanksgiving and had to drive 2 hrs. need that window fixed so no choice. dealer quote price $300 or $50 to get window up and stay like that.
one year later problem coming back this time press window button up but slowly takes forever. sometimes not come up and had to use hands to push up then works. driver side window only problem.
