Used 2009 Dodge Caliber for Sale near Whitby, ON
2.3 Overall rating
(4 reviews)great car financially. good gas mileage, good braking. only problem i have had with the car is the low tire gauge. it broke and constantly said the tire was low, even though it wasnt. also, getting the change oil light even after changes, was difficult to turn off. fun to drive, and has a little bit of balls to get up to speed.
fun to drive with the 5spd. fuel efficient as well. average 28-30mpg mixed driving. has decent pickup and is real quiet stock. intake mods make acceleration improvement and throttle response. a little bit much on body roll but strut bars can be added.
Has enormous blind spots from the driver's perspective - can't tell where the front end is, where the back end is, where anything is on the right at all. Transmission is a complete piece of junk. It has to be replaced all at the same time instead of maybe fixing a part. I bought this car in August 2009 and the transmission had to be replaced in January 2011 and here we are doing that again in June 2012. It's good for about 18 months. If you hit the brakes at the same time you hit a bump or a pothole, the car actually lurches forward. There is no pickup to speak of, which makes getting up to highway speed on an interstate on-ramp impossible. People tailgate me all the time because of its low performance, especially from a dead start. The continuous variable transmission ought to be outlawed - you might as well consider it to be disposable, because the company obviously does. If it lives long enough for me to pay it off, I will set it on fire and go buy a Ford Ranger - mine was 10 years old and had 120,000 miles on it before it had transmission problems, and got about the same gas mileage as this one does.
Believe the expert reviews. Worst car I have ever driven, including rentals and other peoples old beaters. Couldn't wait to get rid of it. Bought it because I was driving a lot (200 miles/day) and needed better gas mileage. Gas mileage was terrible and with the tiny gas tank, I was filling up every 2 days. Got about 200 miles before fuel light came on. My Dad gets better mileage on his 8 cylinder Cadillac. Car was noisy, interior noise was almost unbearable. Handling was awful, always made wide turns. Bad engine, no power, very loud. Caliber is cheaply built, don't expect to see many of these on the road in 5 years.
