Failure Date: 10/07/2014

Driver's side headlight went out again. And then one day the car wouldn't start. Jumped the car and it started. We just had the tipm replaced a few months ago. This time they found a burnt tipm connector pin. They replaced the connector and could not duplicate the no-start condition.

3 Car Will Not Start problem

Failure Date: 07/15/2014

The car would not start (lights worked, but engine would not turn over). After replacing the throttle cable and box, as well as some broken wiring, the car still would not start. The mechanic then towed the vehicle to a Dodge dealership, where the computer was reset. The car ran for another week after it was first "fixed," and then again did not start (same problem as before). Additionally, the light to indicate that the air bags were not functioning turned on prior to the vehicle not starting. This is more frustrating because we have had extensive issues with this car (replaced all tie rods, bushings, control arms, have a broken door from the hinge breaking, and had multiple tires wearing unevenly due to the car's suspension problems) already, and have sunk well over $6000 in repairs this year alone.

4 Car Will Not Start problem

Failure Date: 05/29/2014

My wife and daughter were driving down the highway when the car with no warning shut off almost causing an accident this is not the first time the car has gave us problems with shutting off while driving or not starting at all, the last incident the car would not start and I was out of town so she had it towed to the dealership and the said there was a mouse best under the air filter causing it not to start, I am a certified automotive and diesel technician I service this car frequently and there has never been signs of mouse intrusion this last incident was a little over a week ago when the car stalled at highway speeds so I trailered the car to the shop I am employed with and diagnosed it myself , I found several recalls on the tipm module for the 07 Dodge Caliber on the online repair website alldata so I called multiple Dodge dealers asking if the car was due for a recall and they said there were never any recalls on the vehicle I don't feel like I should have to pay 300$ for a module that Chrysler has recalled and is causing thousand of people to be stranded and injured,not to mention having to wait weeks for the module because so many if them are on back order needless to say this have been a very agitating situation.
