I have had issues with this vehicle such as the O2 sensors that has to be repaired every year. The safety issues with this vehicle if you are at stop sign or just idle in traffic- the engine light will begin to blink and the car begins to move back and forth. . Also, it constantly over heats after much repairs- these symptoms continue to persist-the gentleman at good year told me that some of your parts O2 sensor was recalled- failed to get assistance from Chrysler- the overheating is annoying- I can not drive over 45 miles without over heating. I had to pull over at the exit while other cars- with incoming traffic was coming very fast and the car is in motion on the highway with other drivers- because the car begins to pull - I have to pull over so that the engine can cool down- . . Sometimes in traffic- the abs light will come on and begin to shift gears in traffic- this happens occasionally. The safety issues are engine overheats, start jerking back and forth at stop signs or just being idle in traffic, occasionally just shift acceleration in the middle of traffic. Th most recent incident was last night- I had to pull over- car started jerking- it overheated- 07-19-2017 I am filing another complaint- called Chrysler said that I had to pay for the diagnostic testing on something that is their manufacturer fault.
The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Caliber. While operating the vehicle, the engine suddenly overheated and the oxygen and check engine indicators illuminated. In addition, the vehicle would not accelerate normally. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who indicated that the oxygen sensors were faulty and needed to be replaced. The sensors were replaced, but the failures continued. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 50,000.
