2007 DODGE CALIBER Exterior Lighting Problems

My throttle body keeps going in and out which cause me to have to get an alternator replaced twice plus a crankshaft twice. Now my car is smoking which is the valve cover gasket . Also my car lights went out one at a time so my driver side lights wnt work at all in the front and the passenger side front won't work just my signal on the passenger side. Also my dashboard won't work properly it keeps goin on and off as I turn on other lights in my car . When I signal left my car light on the roof comes on. I spent $12000 on this car from a dealership and have done nothing but put money into it more than I paid for it.

Passenger side headlight and driver's side tail light not working. Bulbs have been replaced and tested as to being good. Went on internet and found this to be a very common problem with Dodge and Chrysler vehicles, many times requiring replacement of the TPIM. Grounds have been checked as good. Dealer says repair requires replacement of the TIPM for $1,600.00!! Vehicle lighting are safety items covered by vehicle laws. These are safety issues and customers should not be held hostage for ransom for their poor design. Dodge and Chrysler should be replacing these TIPMs when they start failing without cost to customers.

I was driving at night time and my left side lowbeam headlight went out. Then briefly after the right side. I put my highbeams on to finish my trip home and then right before I made it home they both went out. Upon having the vehicle diagnosed it would be a $1000 part plus labor known as the TIPM. My friend has his own garage and he jumped power from my foglights. My headlights now work but he said he won't be long until other things start failing. Now my dash lights went out 2 weeks ago while I was on the interstate. I immediately pulled over and tried turning the car off and on and nothing. So I turned on my hazard flashers and drove 25 miles home with no dash lights. They will flicker on and off so rapidly I turned my dimmer switch the whole way down so it doesn't distract me while driving. Apparently the TIPM in these cars is a widely known issue after very little research I found over thousands of failed units in people's vehicles. Dodge should be liable for this mess!

2007 DODGE CALIBER. THE TIPM BOX IS MALFUNCTIONED, AND CONTINUES TO BE. THIS IS AN ISSUE ASSOCIATED WITH THE STOCK, FACTORY TIPM BOX.

Mileage: 165,000

THE TIPS IS SHORTING OUT. GOING TO COST 2200 TO FIX. THIS IS A RECALL IN OTHER VEHICLES AROUND THE SAME YEAR. WHY DOES IT NOT APPLY TO THE CALIBER. SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE. LOOKED INTO SEVERAL FORUMS WITH SAME ISSUE THAT KEEPS POPPING UP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE CALIBER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. ADDITIONALLY, THE BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT THAT THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE BALL JOINTS AND TIE RODS WERE REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES AT BRANDYWINE CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (3807 KIRKWOOD HWY, WILMINGTON, DE 19808). THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000.

Mileage: 43,000

ONLY ONE HEADLIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE, EVEN AFTER REPLACEMENT. THIS IS A COMMONLY REPORTED ISSUE WITH DEFECTIVE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) UNITS ON THIS MODEL. THE EXACT SAME TIPM UNITS HAVE BEEN RECALLED ON OTHER MODELS USING THE PART, BUT NOT FOR THE CALIBER. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE MORE THAN ONE HEADLIGHT CAN FAIL AT ANY TIME. THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A DEFECT LIKE THIS.

Mileage: 90,000

WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TURNED ON, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS AND THE RADIO LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON. AT FIRST THE LIGHTS WOULD BLINK ON AND OFF, NOW THEY DO NOT COME ON AT ALL. THIS CAN BE DANGEROUS WHEN TRAVELING AT NIGHT. I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH SOME DODGE VEHILCLES. I DID A NHTSA SEARCH AND DID NOT FIND A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS WHETHER IN MOTION OR STATIONARY, ON A STREET OR HIGHWAY

Mileage: 78,000

CLUSTER LIGHTS, BACK LIGHTING FOR CLIMATE CONTROL KNOBS AND TAIL LIGHTS FLICKER THREE TIMES AND THEN GO OFF. THIS HAPPENS ANY TIME WHEN TURNING ON LIGHTS, WHETHER AT VEHICLE START-UP OR WHEN DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY. MAKES FOR UNSAFE NIGHT TIME DRIVING.

THIS CAR HAS HAD THE DRIVER AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON IN THE DASH FOR MORE THAN 20,000 MILES.I DO NOT KNOW IF THEY ARE "TAKATA AIR BAGS OR NOT. ALSO, THE DRIVER REAR TAILLIGHT HAS FILLED WITH WATER. I HAVE BEEN THE SOLE OWNER OF THIS CAR. NOW THE DASH LIGHTS ARE FLICKERING OFF & ON WHEN LIGHTS ARE TURNED ON. THE CALIBER NOW HAS 96,000 MILES ON IT . THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ANY ANSWERS.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE FAILING REPORTEDLY DUE TO FAILURES WITHIN THE TIPM ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY ARE CHARGING 1600 USD FOR THIS REPAIR IN ORDER TO HAVE A SAFE OPERATING CONDITION ON THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT!

Mileage: 125,000

THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE TIPM IN THESE VEHICLES AND THEY HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN OTHER MODELS WITH THE SAME TIPM WHEN THIS MODULE FAILS THE HEADLIGHTS STOP WORKING AND THERE IS NO REPAIR OTHER THEN PAYING DODGE TO FIX IT AND THEY WANT 1000$ THEY HAVE RECALLED OTHER MODELS OF CHRYSLER JEEPS AND DODGES WHICH HAVE THIS SAME MODULE BUT NOT THE CALIBER. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. MY LIGHTS FAILED WHEN I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT. SO THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE.

FOR THE SECOND TIME THIS YEAR, I HAVE LOST ALL HEADLIGHTS, AIR CONDITIONING, ENGINE DYING RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING, SAFETY LIGHTS FLASHING AND BEEPING ON DASHBOARD. THE TIPM MODULE IS GOING OUT AGAIN. THIS PART IS NEARLY $1,000 AND ONLY A DODGE DEALERSHIP IS ABLE TO FIX THIS ISSUE. THERE ARE ISSUES WORLDWIDE WITH THIS SAME PART IN MULTIPLE DODGE CARS SINCE 2007 AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO FIX THIS ISSUE

I ONLY HAVE ONE HIGH BEAM LIGHT ILLUMINATING. I'VE REPLACED THE BULBS JUST TO MAKE SURE. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR.

Mileage: 175,000

MY HEADLIGHTS WAS NOT WORKING SO I BOUGHT A REPLACEMENT BULB. THE LOW BEAM WAS OUT THE HIGH BEAM WORKS. THE BULB REPLACEMENT DID NOT WORK. I TOOK TO A MECHANIC AND HE LOOKED AT IT AND SAID IT WAS MY FUSE BOX. THE ENTIRE THING NEEDED REPLACED. BEING IN THE BUSINESS HE SAID IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL. THE COST TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE THING IS COSTLY SINCE THE IS BASICALLY THE COMPUTER OF THE CAR... THERE IS NO WAY TO FIX WITHOUT REPLACING THE ENTIRE FUSE BOX. THIS FUSE BOX CONTROLS A LOT OF THINGS THAT COULD BE SAFETY ISSUES AND LIGHTING TO ME IS VERY IMPORTANT. I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A FUSE BOX. I CHECKED FOR RECALLS AND THERE WAS NONE. I BEGAN LOOKING ONLINE AND THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE THIS MAKE AND MODEL AND THE SAME PROBLEM IS ASTOUNDING BUT I GUESS UNTIL SOMEONE GETS HURT CHRYSLER WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

WHEN DRIVING ON US.10 IN MI AT 9 PM HEAD LIGHTS WENT OUT ALL OTHER LIGHTS WORK NO HIGH OR LOW BEAMS. THE BULBS ARE BOTH GOOD. ALSO THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL BLINKS VERY FAST AS IF THERE WAS A BURNED OUT BULB BUT THERE IS NOT ONE. THIS IS A 2007 DODGE CALIBER. DOESSOMEONE HAVE TO GETKILLED BEFORE A RECALL IS FORCED ON CHRYSLER?

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC OR DEALER FOR THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED BY VOICEMAIL AND THE CONTACT WAS AWAITING A CALLBACK. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

MY FRONT HEAD LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING IT HAS TO TO DO WITH THE FUSE BOX THAT IS LOCATE UNDER THE THE BUMPER ,THAT IT GET WET AND THE SNOW AND SALT THROUGH THE YEARS .I HAVE TO DRIVE MY CAR DOING THE DAY ONLY .THE FUSE BOX IS CORRODED IT .

RT HEADLIGHT NOT WORKING. I REPLACED BULB BUT LATER FOUND OUT THAT MY FUSE BOX NEEDED TO BE REPLACED . APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE. LIGHT ALL OF A SUDDEN STOPPED WORKING. IT LIMITS MY VISIBILITY AT NIGHT AT POSSES A THREAT TO DRIVERS WHO DON'T SEE ME WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT.

ON THIS DATE, MY WIFE AND I NOTICED THE L HEADLIGHT OF OUR 2007 DODGE CALIBER R/T WAS INOPERABLE. ONCE BACK TO OUR HOUSE AFTER A WEEKEND AWAY, I PURCHASED A LIGHT BULB PACK FOR REPLACEMENT OF THE SUPPOSED BURNT OUT BULB. UPON REPLACING THIS ITEM, IT STILL DID NOT OPERATE. I THEN INSTALLED THE 2ND ONE THAT CAME IN THE PACK WITH THE SAME RESULTS. AFTER REINSTALLING THE ORIGINAL BULB, I SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR POSSIBLE WIRING DIAGRAMS TO HELP WITH TROUBLESHOOTING, BUT INSTEAD, ENCOUNTERED NUMEROUS LIKE PROBLEMS WITH OTHER OWNERS WHOM WITH THE L HEADLIGHT SUDDENLY EXPIRING WITH THE BULB NOT BEING THE ISSUE. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE HAVE BEEN SOME SOLUTIONS WITH HAVING THE DEALER REBOOT THE COMPUTER, IN WHICH IT ALSO RESETS THE LIGHT MODULE, HOWEVER, DODGE DOES NOT DECLARE THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE. I BEG TO DIFFER, LOOSING A HEADLIGHT, ESPECIALLY THE L/DRIVERS SIDE IS A VERY BIG SAFETY ISSUE. LIVING IN NE OHIO DURING THE WINTER TIME AND SNOW STORMS, THIS IS A "SAFETY ISSUE" FOR ME AND OTHER DRIVERS. WOULD YOU PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE FOR A POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUE. THE BLOGS ON MANY CAR SIGHTS AND EVEN ON ABC15 ARE OVERWHELMING. SINCERELY [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I'VE OWNED THE CAR SINCE NEW, RECENTLY WE HAD A PROBLEM WITH A DEAD BATTERY. AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY, THE CAR WOULD NOT GO MORE THAN 20 MILES PER HOUR AND WE HAD ENGINE FAULT CODES. ONCE WE CLEARED OUT THE CODES, THE CAR RAN FINE. HOWEVER, WE NOW HAD A FRONT HEADLIGHT THAT WAS OUT. REPLACING THE BULB DIDN'T WORK. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS BOTH ON WAS TO TURN ON THE HIGH BEAMS. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH FROM A DODGE DEALERSHIP AND ON THE INTERNET, I HAVE FOUND THE ISSUE IS WIDESPREAD AND DUE TO POOR DESIGN OF THE FUSE BOX ON THESE VEHICLES, ALSO KNOWN AS THE TIPM. I BELIEVE THE DRAIN ON THE BATTERY WAS CAUSED BY THE POOR DESIGN OF THE TIPM AND WITH THAT ONE INCIDENT, STARTED THE FAILURE PROCESS. THIS VEHICLE HAS 150,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED. I HAVE REPLACED THE TIPM WITH A USED ONE FROM A AUTO SUPPLY YARD, I STILL GET INTERMITTENT STARTING OF THE VEHICLE AND WHILE BOTH HEADLIGHTS ARE WORKING, THE HIGH BEAMS ARE NOW NOT WORKING.

ENGINE INTERMITTENTLY STOPS/STARTS. ACCELERATION ISSUES, ETC. CHRYSLER WANTS OVER A $1,000.00 TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE, AND THE REPLACEMENT TIPM WOULD LIKELY FAIL IN SIMILAR MANNER SHORTLY THEREAFTER. EXTREMELY UNSAFE CAR DAY OR NIGHT.

THE BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON AT WILL. THE CAR CAN BE PARKED FOR HOURS THEN SUDDENLY THE BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON, DRAINING THE BATTERY. I HAVE REPLACED THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. *JS

HEADLIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT SHOULD BE EASY FOR THE CONSUMER AND COMPANY SHOULD BE LIABLE FOR THE LOW BEAM PROBLEM THAT CAUSING LOT OF OWNERS TO REPAIRS COST OF 100 OF 900 DOLLARS. THIS IS A ECONOMY SAFETY ISSUE THAT INCREASE PRESSURE OF THE OWNERS WHO DO NOT AFFORDS SUCH A COSTLY REPAIRS AND DRIVE IN PRESSURE -- ALSO A ISSUE FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHERS. ONE SMALL PROBLEM CAN CAUSE MANY OTHER PROBLEMS. DO NOT LET COMPANY GET OUT OF EASY EXCUSE THAT UNDER NOT A SAFETY PROBLEM.

ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK I STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND MY CAR JERKED AND ACTED AS THOUGH IT WAS ABOUT TO SHUT OFF AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE VERY WELL. I WENT BACK TO MY WORK AND HAD THE MECHANIC CHECK IT (I WORK AT A SCHOOL TRANSPORTATION) AND THE LIGHT SAID IT WAS THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR SO I GOT IT REPLACED AND IT DID NOTHING SO WE WENT AHEAD AND REPLACED THR CAMSHAFT AS WELL AND IT WORKED FOR A WEEK OR SO THEN STARTED OFF AND ON. MY HEADLIGHT ALSO STOPPED WORKING AND I REPLACED IT 3 TIMES BEFORE WONDERING WHAT THE HECK! I JUST RECENTLY WAS CITED A TICKET DUE TO THE LIGHT AND SINCE I WAS NOT ABLE TO FIX IT I HAD MY LICENSE SUSPENDED AND WAS DRIVING WITHOUT KNOWING AND ENDED UP GETTING PULLED OVER AGAIN BUT INSTEAD OF EXPLAINING THAT MY CAR SUCKS I WAS ARRESTED AND PUT IN JAIL FOR A COUPLE HOURS SO NOW I HAVE TWO COURT DATES COMING UP ONE FOR MY FIX IT TICKET NOT GETTING FIXED AND ANOTHER FOR DRIVING ON SUSPENDED BECAUSE OF NOT GETTING THE PART FIXED SO IT IS STARTING TO BECOME A MAJOR ISSUE FOR MY WHOLE LIFE IN GENERAL. MY CAR DIES AT ALMOST EVERY STOP LIGHT AND IF I GO OVER 2RPM IT WILL NOT ACCLERATE. I HAD TO REPLACE MAJOR PARTS SUCH AS; MOTOR MOUNTS, STRUTS, PISTONS, CALIPERS, BRAKES, BATTERIES, ETC IN JUST THE SHORT TIME IVE OWNED THE VEHICLE WHICH WAS VERY HARD FOR ME SINCE I DONT MAKE MUCH MONEY. THE CAR IS WIRED VERY ODD AND MY FATHER IS MY GO TO MECHANIC BUT HE COULDNT FIGURE OUT SOME OF THE PARTS. I DONT HAVE THE FINANCES FOR THE TPIM AND FIGURED IT WOULD BE RECALLED BY NOW SINCE ITS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH MOST CALIBERS SO I STUCK IT OUT BUT NOW I DONT KNOW WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN. AS OF TODAY, AUGUST 24, 2015, MY CAR IS NOT RUNNING SINCE IT LOST ALL POWER LAST NIGHT, FIRST THE RADIO STOPPED, THEN THE AC STOPPED BLOWING, THEN THE LIGHTS THAT WORK STARTED TO DIM, AND THEN IT JUST DIED. PLEASE HELP!!!

WAS PULLED OVER FOR DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT OUT. WAS GIVEN A "WARNING". DROVE TO NEAREST PARTS STORE, REPLACED DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT BULB. STILL DID NOT WORK. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH AND DIAGNOSTICS FOUND NO POWER COMING FROM TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) WHICH CAN BE REPLACED AT THE TUNE OF $800. I FIND A HEADLIGHT TO BE IMPORTANT SAFETY DEVICE FOR DRIVING ON OUR HIGHWAYS HERE IN AK AS HEADLIGHTS ON AT ALL TIMES IS THE LAW ON MOST ROADS. AFTER RESEARCH THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. EVEN REPLACING THE TIPM FOR $800 DOES NOT INSURE THE PROBLEM STAYS AWAY. THE TIPM FAILED A SECOND TIME THIS APRIL 2015 WITH DRIVERS SIDE LOWBEAM AND PASSENGER SIDE HIGHBEAM. COMPLAINT TO CHRYSLER HAS SHOWN NO RESULTS. *TR

WHEN RETURNING HOME FROM THE STORE IT WAS NEAR DUSK. WE TURNED ON THE HEADLIGHTS AND HEADED HOME. ALONG THE WAY CARS WERE FLASHING THEIR LIGHTS AT US. I CHECKED TO CONFIRM THE HEADLIGHTS WERE SWITCHED ON, WHICH THEY WERE. ONCE WE GOT HOME, WE NOTICED BOTH HEADLIGHTS WERE OUT EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE SWITCHED ON. LUCKILY WE ONLY HAD A MILE FROM TO TRAVEL TO GET HOME OR THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT COULD HAVE ENDED IN A CRASH. LATER I REMOVED THE HEADLIGHT BULBS TO SEE IF THEY HAD BURNED OUT. (NOT LIKELY SINCE THEY BOTH WENT OUT AT THE SAME TIME.) BOTH BULBS APPEARED FINE AND I REINSTALLED THEM. I TURNED ON THE HEADLIGHTS AND THEY BOTH ILLUMINATED. A COUPLE HOURS LATER, I WENT TO LEAVE AGAIN BUT AFTER TURNING ON THE HEADLIGHTS NEITHER OF THEM ILLUMINATED. AFTER SOME RESEARCH I FOUND THAT IT'S THE TIPM FAILING IN THE VEHICLE. I'VE ALSO READ THAT CHRYSLER INSTALLED THE FUSE BOX UNDER THE HOOD WHERE IT'S EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS AND THIS IS POSSIBLY WHY SO MANY CALIBER OWNERS ARE SEEING THIS ISSUE. I LOOKED THROUGH THE LAST 50 COMPLAINTS ON NHTSA AND 20 OF THEM ARE FOR THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM. IF 40% OF THE COMPLAINTS ON A VEHICLE ARE FOR THE SAME ISSUE, SHOULDN'T CHRYSLER DO THE RIGHT THING AND OFFER FREE REPLACEMENT? WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL PEOPLE DIE IN A CAR CRASH BEFORE CHRYSLER DOES SOMETHING. THIS CREATES A VERY HAZARDOUS SITUATION IF THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE DOESN'T REALIZE THE LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING AND THEY'RE DRIVING IN RAIN OR FOG. OTHERS DRIVERS CANNOT SEE THEM AS WELL AND IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEBODY GETS KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. *TR

I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN AND WAS TOLD THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) MUST BE REPLACED AT A COST OF OVER $1,000. THIS IS A KNOW ISSUE TO DODGE; A DESIGN FLAW DUE TO EXPOSING THE ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT TO THE ELEMENTS BY PLACING IT IN THE ENGINE BAY IN A HOUSING THAT NOT WATER TIGHT. I'VE BEEN TOLD THE WITH THE CALIBER IT IS NOT A QUESTION OF IF, BUT WHEN THE TIPM WILL GO OUT. THIS CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE ANY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM COULD GO OUT WHILE DRIVING.

THE VEHICLE HAD NUMEROUS THROTTLE ISSUES AND AIR CONDITIONING ISSUES THAT NUMEROUS AUTO SERVICE SHOPS WERE NOT ABLE TO FULLY TAKE CARE OF. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS AT A STOP AND THE ACCELERATOR WAS PRESSED, LIGHTLY AND NORMALLY THE CAR WOULD ACCELERATE INAPPROPRIATELY AND KIND OF JERK FORWARD. IN ADDITION, WHEN TURNING AND THE ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED NORMALLY THE CAR WOULD SEEM TO LOSE POWER AND SEEM TO GLIDE INTO THE TURN AND THEN JERK FORWARD. THESE THROTTLE ISSUES WERE NEVER FULLY EXPLAINED OR FIXED. AFTER A WHILE THE CAR DASH STARTED FLASHING A RED ELECTRICAL BOLT AND THE CAR WOULD SHUTTER AND SHAKE AND LOSE ALL POWER. INITIALLY, WHEN THIS OCCURRED I WAS ABLE TO JUST TURN THE CAR OFF AND WAIT AND THEN TURN IT BACK ON AND IT WOULD FUNCTION FOR A WHILE. ALSO, IF THE CAR WAS IDLING AT A STOPLIGHT OR PARKED THE ELECTRICAL BOLT WOULD FLASH AND THE CAR WOULD START TO SHAKE. AFTER SOME TIME THE VEHICLE'S LEFT LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT WENT OUT. WHEN REPLACED IT STILL DID NOT WORK. THE VEHICLE'S ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY WERE CHECKED AND FOUND TO BE FUNCTIONAL. WITHIN A WEEK AFTER THIS OCCURRENCE THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE STARTED WITHOUT A "JUMP" AND EVEN SO WOULD LOSE POWER ONCE PARKED AND COULD NOT BE STARTED AGAIN. I RETURNED THE CAR TO THE AUTO MECHANIC, SPECIFICALLY AN AUTO ELECTRICIAN, AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $700 PLUS LABOR. IN RESPONSE TO THIS I RESEARCHED THE PART AND CAME ACROSS NUMEROUS PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND THE SAME EVENTUAL DIAGNOSIS. THE CAR HAS BEEN ESSENTIALLY UNDRIVABLE AND UNSAFE. THERE WAS THE CONSTANT WORRY THAT THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WOULD HAPPEN WHILE ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND CAUSE VERY UNSAFE CONDITIONS FOR MYSELF AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. IT IS MY OPINION A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I NOTICED THAT MY LEFT (DRIVER SIDE) HEADLIGHT WAS OUT. SO I REPLACED THE BULB, WHICH WOULD BE THE OBVIOUS REASON FOR THE LIGHT NOT WORKING. HOWEVER, THIS DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION AND DISCUSSION WITH A MECHANIC, IT TURNS OUT IT'S THE TIMP THAT IS BAD AND CAUSING THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT NOT TO WORK. IN ADDITION, AFTER DOING MORE RESEARCH ONLINE IT APPEARS THAT THIS ISSUE IS MORE THAN COMMON WITH THE 2007 DODGE CALIBER. I CAN'T SEE HOW A RECALL HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN FILED FOR THIS ISSUE GIVEN IT IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD IF ONE'S HEADLIGHTS DON'T WORK AT NIGHT. IN ADDITION, IT CAUSES SOMEONE TO BE PULLED OVER. *TR

I FIRST LOST THE LOW BEAM ON MY DRIVER SIDE HEAD LIGHT. I REPLACED THE BULB ONLY TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. LATER THAT DAY I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, MY CAR THEN STALLED OUT. I PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTARTED IT. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED TO FLASH THERE WAS LITTLE TO NO POWER. I MANAGED TO PULL MY CAR OFF THE ROAD PUT IT INTO PARK THEN RESTART IT AGAIN. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON BUT WAS NOT FLASHING. I GOT MY CAR HOME. I COUNT MY BLESSING THAT MY CAR DIDN'T DIE WHILE GOING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. OR LOSE ALL THE LIGHTS AND CAUSE AN CRASH. I'M WORRIED TO DRIVE IT NOW BUT I HAVE NO CHOICE IF I WANT TO KEEP WORKING. THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE FROM WHAT I HAVE READ. THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE IT KILLS PEOPLE. IT IS UNSAFE AND CAUSES THE CAR THE BECOME A DEATH TRAP FOR THE DRIVER AND ALL THE PEOPLE AROUND IT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE DARK BOTH OF MY LOW BEAM LIGHTS WENT OUT LEAVING ME WITH HIGH BEAMS ONLY. HAVE FOUND OUT LIKE NUMEROUS OTHER CALIBER OWNERS THAT MY TIPM NEEDS REPLACED DUE TO CORROSION AND THAT ALL THE WIRING NEEDS CHECKED FOR CORROSION AS WELL. HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH THE DODGE CALIBER AND THERE IS NO RECALL. SINCE I DO NOT HAVE ANY WARRANTY LEFT ON MY VEHICLE I WILL BE PAYING FOR THIS ON MY OWN IF I CHOOSE TO FIX IT. SINCE I DRIVE APPROXIMATELY 100 MILES ROUND TRIP TO WORK 5 DAYS A WEEK AND AM HAVING HEALTH ISSUES THAT REQUIRE ME TO TRAVEL TO THE DOCTOR FREQUENTLY, I WILL HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO GET THE MONEY TO FIX THIS ISSUE AS IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY WITH NO LOW BEAM AND I CAN'T ADJUST MY WORK SCHEDULE TO BE ABLE TO ONLY DRIVE IN THE DAY LIGHT. I WAS WONDERING HOW I WAS GOING TO AFFORD TO HAVE ANY CHRISTMAS FOR MY FAMILY BEFORE THIS DUE TO HAVING SERIOUS HEALTH ISSUES AND NOW I HAVE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO PAY FOR A PART THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED ON TOP OF THAT. *TR

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT ON PASSENGER SIDE WILL NOT TURN ON BUT THE HIGH BEAM WORKS FINE. HAVE CHECKED WIRING AND FUSES AND IT SEEMS TO BE THE TIPM. TOOK INTO A SHOP AND THEY SAID THAT IT IS THE TIPM TELLING THE LIGHT NOT TO TURN ON SO IN OTHER WORDS ITS A BAD TIPM. I WAS MADE AWARE THAT THE PART WOULD BE CLOSE TO $1200. I'VE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND I SEE THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE. I AM NOW STARTING TO HAVE ISSUES WITH WHAT I THINK IS A BEARING GONE BAD, STILL TRYING TO DETERMINE THIS. TODAY AS I WAS ALMOST HOME, MY CHARGE SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN I GOT HOME, SO TURNED CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT A FEW MINUTES, TURNED THE CAR BACK AND NO ISSUES. THE 2007 DODGE CALIBER SEEMS TO HAVE ISSUES. I WROTE TO DODGE ABOUT THE HEADLAMP ISSUES WITH NO RESOLUTION OR THAT THEY ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS AN ISSUE. FROM READING THE FORUMS TODAY, IT SEEMS MY LIGHTS OR ISSUES MAY GET WORSE AND POSSIBLY LOOSE MY LIFE OR CAUSE A HORRIBLE WRECK BEFORE ALL OF THIS OVER. DODGE NEEDS TO TAKE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL OF THESE ISSUES AND RECALL THEM SO WE ARE NOT OUT THE HUGE SUMS OF MONEY THAT IS REQUIRED TO FIX THIS. I AM CURRENTLY UNEMPLOYED AND NO UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION AS OF YET, I AM AFRAID MY ONCE RELIABLE CAR WILL JUST QUIT ON ME ONE DAY WHEN I LEAST EXPECT OR CAUSE LOSE OF LIFE. *TR

I OWN A 2007 DODGE CALIBER SXT. BACK IN MARCH OF THIS YEAR, THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT WENT OUT. AFTER REPLACING THE BULB, IT STILL DID NOT WORK. I LOOKED ONLINE FOR SOME POTENTIAL ENLIGHTENMENT AS TO WHY AND FOUND A MULTITUDE OF MESSAGE BOARDS AND CONSUMER WEBSITES STATING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2007 DODGE CALIBERS. IT STARTS WITH LOSING A HEADLIGHT AND THEN ESCALATES TO LOSS OF POWER TO THE HEADLIGHTS, BLINKERS, HAZARD LIGHTS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, AND SOMETIMES THE HEATING/COOLING SYSTEM AND/OR RADIO. INITIALLY, IN MARCH, I HADN'T EXPERIENCED THAT YET. TODAY, I WAS DRIVING THROUGH A CITY AT APPROXIMATELY 30MPH WHEN I WENT TO TAKE A TURN AND NOTICED MY RIGHT BLINKER WASN'T WORKING, SO I TRIED THE BLINKER FOR THE LEFT. THAT TOO WAS NOT WORKING. NEITHER WERE MY HAZARD LIGHTS OR WINDSHIELD WIPERS. I WAS FAR FROM HOME AND AFRAID TO SHUT THE CAR OFF, FOR FEAR IT WOULD NOT RESTART SO I KEPT DRIVING HOME CAUTIOUSLY, TRYING NOT TO CHANGE LANES. IT BEGAN POURING RAIN AND I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAD NO HEADLIGHTS, NO WIPERS, AND NO BLINKERS OR HAZARDS TO SIGNAL I WAS GOING OVER INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE. ONCE IN THE BREAKDOWN LANE, I WAS NOT EASILY VISIBLE TO THE OTHER CARS SPEEDING BY BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF RAIN AND THE FACT THAT I HAD NO HAZARD LIGHTS TO RELY ON. I COULD EASILY HAVE BEEN HIT OR HIT SOMEONE ELSE WHILE TRYING TO NAVIGATE THROUGH THE RAIN TO SAFETY WITH NO WORKING BLINKERS, HAZARDS, HEADLIGHTS, OR WIPERS! THE WORST PART IS, THIS IS A STARTLINGLY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL AND DODGE IS NOT OFFERING A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE WITH THE TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE), WHERE THE PROBLEM IS STEMMING FROM. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE ME $99 FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND THEN OVER $1,000 FOR A NEW TIPM. I WANT TO START A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT TO GET DODGE TO RECALL ALL OF THE VEHICLES HAVING THESE SAFETY ISSUES CAUSED BY THE TIPM FAILURE!!!! *JS

PASSENGER HEADLIGHT NOT TURNING ON. AFTER REPLACING BULB IT POWERED ON ONE OR TWO MORE TIMES THEN WOULD NOT TURN ON AGAIN.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT STOPPED WORKING AFTER FLICKERING ON AND OFF FOR A FEW WEEKS. I CHECKED THE WIRING, CHANGED THE BULB, CHECKED FOR LOOSE CONNECTIONS AND ALL FINE. DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) IS THE CAUSE. IT APPEARS FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN THAT NUMEROUS PEOPLE WHO HAVE CALIBERS AND PT CRUISERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM. THE TWO WAYS I HAVE SEEN TO FIX THIS IS TO BUY A NEW TIPM FOR $500-$800 DOLLARS, NOT INSTALLED, OR REWIRE IT TO THE PASSENGER LIGHT WHICH MAY CAUSE A FIRE. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE! TO RELY ON A $500-$800 PART TO MAKE SURE A HEADLIGHT WORKS? DODGE NEEDS TO BE FORCED TO RECALL THE PART OR PROVIDE OWNERS AVAILABLE OPTIONS AT CHEAPER RATES! THIS IS VERY POOR AND I HOPE THAT NHTSA WILL ASSISTS THE 1,000'S OF OWNERS WHO ARE EXPERINCING THIS PROBLEM. THANK YOU!

LEFT LOW BEAM CUT OUT WHILE DRIVING. I REPLACED THE BULB, STILL NOT WORKING. NEXT DAY, ABS, ESP, BRAKE, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. I CHECKED ALL FUSES AND FOUND NOTHING. I REPLACED ALL FUSES JUST TO BE SAFE, STILL NOTHING. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO ASK WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE. I MENTIONED THE LOW BEAM AND HE IMMEDIATELY SAID THAT THE TIPM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. HE STATED THAT HE HAD REPLACED 3 OF THE SAME MODEL THAT MONTH. AFTER BEING TOLD THE COST OF THE REPAIR, $ 1,200, I WAS UPSET. THIS IS A COSTLY REPAIR. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FOUND ON THE INTERNET, ESPECIALLY THE DODGE FORUMS, WITH THESE SAME ISSUES. MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IT REALLY IS. I HAVE NOT HAD THE PART REPLACED, BUT AFTER READING A FEW COMPLAINTS OF THE RIGHT LOW BEAM ALSO FAILING, I WILL NOT DRIVE THIS CAR AT NIGHT OR DURING ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS. I REALLY FEEL THAT WE AS CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT BE REQUIRED TO PAY FOR A PART OR ITS REPLACEMENT, WHEN THE CAR WAS BUILT WITH FAULTY EQUIPMENT. HOPEFULLY, DODGE WILL ADMIT THIS AND ISSUE A RECALL FOR THE TIPM BEFORE SOME GETS HURT OR EVEN WORSE. *TR

THE LEFT HEADLIGHT LOW-BEAM DOES NOT WORK. HAVE BEEN STOPPED 3 TIMES BY POLICE FOR WARNINGS. HAVE REPLACED LIGHT BULB WITH NEW BULB AND IT STILL ONLY WORKS ON HIGH-BEAM. TOOK TO AUTO SERVICE CENTER, THEY ALSO TRIED TO INSTALL A NEW BULB, BUT IT TO DID NOT WORK. TRIED TIP OF REMOVING BOTH BATTERY CABLES AND HOLDING THEM TOGETHER FOR 10 MINUTES TO RESET COMPUTER CODE. THAT ALSO DID NOT WORK. FROM SEARCHING THE INTERNET ON THIS PROBLEM, I FIND THAT THERE ARE MANY OF THESE VEHICALS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS. I THINK THESE SHOULD BE RECALLED BY CHRYSLER BECAUSE IT CAUSES A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT OR DURING THE DAY WHEN IT IS RAINING. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR AT NIGHT MY RIGHT HEADLIGHT WENT OUT,REPLACED BULB AND DISCOVERED NEW BULB DOES NOT WORK,PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED AS A BAD TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE,SO A $20.00 LAMP TURNED INTO A COSTLY $1200.00 REPAIR, WHAT IF ALL LIGHTS WENT OUT? AS I INVESTIGATED THIS ISSUE IT IS VERY COMMON ON CHRYSLER/DODGE VEHICLES, THIS OCCURRENCE OF FAILURE CAN AND WILL BE A DANGER IF YOU ENCOUNTER FAILURE WHILING DRIVING AT NIGHT AND LOSE ALL LIGHTS OR OTHER COMPONENTS, I BELIEVE CHRYSLER /DODGE SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS FAILURE IN THEIR DESIGN OF THIS NECESSARY COMPONENT IN THEIR VEHICLES AND A SAFETY RECALL SHOULD BE ORDERED!

I BOUGHT A USED 2007 DODGE CALIBER ABOUT 18 MONTHS AGO. IT HAD ABOUT 27,000 MILES ON IT. I LOVE THE CAR EXCEPT FOR ONE MAJOR PROBLEM. ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO(CAR NOW HAS 46,000 MILES AND OUT OF WARRANTY) I GOT STOPPED BY A POLICE OFFICER. HE INFORMED ME THAT MY REAR BRAKE LIGHTS WEREN'T WORKING(THIRD BRAKE LIGHT WORKED OK). I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM SO THEY COULD DIAGNOSE IT. I WAS TOLD IT NEEDED SOME KIND OF SOFTWARE UPGRADE AND WAS GOING TO COST ME BECAUSE THE CAR WAS NO LONGER IN WARRANTY. I LOST MY JOB SHORTLY AFTER BUYING THE CAR AND TOLD THE DEALERSHIP I COULDN\'T AFFORD TO PAY. THEY DID SOME TYPE OF RESET(FREE OF CHARGE)AND SAID IT MIGHT NOT LAST. THE OTHER DAY I GOT STOPPED AGAIN, FINDING OUT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WEREN'T WORKING AGAIN. I'M STILL NOT WORKING SO THINGS ARE EVEN TIGHTER THAN BEFORE. I CALLED DODGE TO SEE IF THEY WOULD HELP ME OUT. HE SAID HE TALKED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD HIM THEY WOULD HAVE TO DIAGNOSE IT. BECAUSE IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM THEY MIGHT NEED THE CAR FOR A COUPLE DAYS AND THE CHARGES COULD BE QUITE HIGH. THE GUY AT DODGE SAID THE BEST HE COULD DO IS PAY HALF OF THE REPAIR. I TOLD HIM HALF WASN'T GOING TO HELP SO I GUESS MY ONLY OPTION WAS TO DRIVE IT LIKE IT WAS. MY INTENSION WAS TO KEEP THE CAR FOR ANOTHER YEAR AND BUY A NEW DODGE BUT IF THIS IS THE WAY THEY OPERATE I GUESS I'LL BUY ANOTHER BRAND. HE SAID HE WOULD KEEP ON RECORD IN CASE I CHANGED MY MIND ABOUT SPLITTING THE CHARGES. I TOLD HIM HE SHOULD KEEP IT ON RECORD SO WHEN I GET REAR ENDED I CAN SAY I TRIED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I'M STILL OUT OF WORK AND STILL DRIVING IT WITHOUT BRAKE LIGHTS. IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME, BUT WHAT CAN I DO? *TR
