I bought a 2007 Dodge Caliber and the following things have happened that resulted in a accident. 1. ) the blower motor went out only 2 months after buying the car. 2. ) the steering wheel controls for the volume and changing the channels have never worked. I have brought the car into the shop 14 times and the issue has never been fixed. 3. ) first brake failure was about a year after buying the car and was due to the booster cylinder and master cylinder failing. Ourisman Dodge put me into a rental car for about 10 days. 4. ) cruise control has a mind of its own and could also be a reason why the car was in a accident
5. ) transmission issue, the car has already had transmission issues where it was not able to upshift while driving and the automatic transmission was not able to be used. 6. ) computer issues, when my battery died the entire computer went out and $300 later had to be reloaded and fixed
7. ) the exhaust system has already failed on the car
8. ) I have had the engine light go on 3 times with different sensors failing needing to be replaced. 9. ) the control arm and suspension has currently failed and now has to be replaced for around $2000. 10. ) everything leaks and retains water. The back lights fill with water and I have had it in the shop for this issue 3 times. The doors also fill gallons and gallons of water which will take 5 to 10 minutes to drain sometimes. The car has been brought in for that issue 2 times and never repaired. 11. ) many seals have rotted in the car causing leaks and other issues to occur. 12. ) second brake failure, this led to a 3 car accident and the totaling of multiple cars. The brake pedal shook and then went straight to the floor. Cruise control was on during this braking attempt. The car hit another car going 51 mph. Dodge has been contacted to investigate and they have not gotten back to me at this time. They were contacted on the date of the accident.
