Consumer Description

MY 2007 CALIBER HAS LEAKING PROBLEMS, IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP TWICE AND STILL NOT FIXED, ALSO I JUST BROUGHT IT IN FOR A GRINDING NOISE, AT 16,000 MILES. THE DEALER 1ST TOLD ME NOTHING IS WRONG COME AND GET IT, I DID NOT GET IT I TOLD THEM TO KEEP IT AND DRIVE IT 1ST THING IN THE MORN. THEY DID AND HEARD THE LOUD VIBRATING NOISE. THEY CALLED ME AND TOLD ME IT NEEDED SWAYBAR BUSHINGS AND A NEW TRANSMISSION. THIS CALIBER IS JUNK. WITH EACH SUPPOSED REPAIR FOR LEAKING THEY HAD MY CAR FOR 2 WEEKS TOTAL. ALSO THIS TIME WITH THE TRANSMISSION IT HAS BE 3 DAYS. I HAVE TO PAY FOR A RENTAL CAR EACH TIME. THE POWER DOOR LOCKS MAKE A WEIRD LOUD NOISE AT TIMES WHEN UNLOCKING THE DOORS. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE WITH MY 4 KIDS IN THE CAR WITH ME. I NEED A SAFE VEHICLE. *TR
