NHTSA Complaint #11180120 — 2010 DODGE CALIBER

DODGE PUT THE RELAY BOX RIGHT BEHIND THE DRIVER SIDE WHEEL WELL AND THIS CAUSES THE SNOW, WATER, ICE AND ELEMENTS TO GET INTO THE RELAY BOX AND CORRODE THE RELAYS AND THE ACTUAL RELAY BOX, THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF THE CALIBERS GOING BACK TO 2007 THAT I KNOW OF. THIS WILL CAUSE YOUR CAR NOT TO START OUT OF THE BLUE, AND THE WIRES GET CORRODED GOING FROM THE FUSE BOX TO THE RELAY BOX AS WELL. NOT SURE WHY THEY WOULD PUT THIS TYPE OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT IN FRONT OF THE WHEEL WELL WHERE THE ELEMENTS CAN GET INSIDE AND DO DAMAGE TO ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT THAT CAN BE VERY PRICY. THIS HAPPENED TO MY CAR WITH NO WARNING, NO ACTING UP OR ISSUES, JUST DIED AND WOULD NOT START, MY BATTERY IS BRAND NEW, IT'S NOT THE STARTER IT'S THE CORRODED RELAYS AND RELAY BOX.
