Consumer Description

I HAD AN OIL CHANGE DONE ON MY 2007 DODGE CALIBER TODAY. THE SAFETY INSPECTION SHEET SAID THE TIE ROD IS "LOOSE" ON BOTH SIDES, AND THE LEFT BALL JOINT IS "LOOSE". I KNOW IF EITHER OF THESE BREAKS WHILE I'M DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT WOULD CAUSE A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THERE ARE LESS THAN 27,000 MILES ON THIS CAR, AND I FOUND THAT MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR CALIBERS. I AM STRAPPED FOR CASH, BUT WILL HAVE TO GET IT REPAIRED ASAP, AS I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT LIKE THIS, ESPECIALLY WHEN MY FOUR YEAR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER IS WITH ME. I THINK A RECALL IS IN ORDER. *KB
