Replying to: caliberchic (Jul 06, 2008 4:55 am) I forgot: Remember when I said "I got all the options except...."? That DOES include the trailer-package [excludes hitch]. That extra-large oil-cooler is a MUST in Europe-- and I've absolutely NO intention of actually TOWING anything. The Engine heat guage rarely goes above 1/4-up. Glad I have a 'government job,' I'd HATE to pay the $8-a-gallon my GERMAN neighbors pay. It's TRUE, you C-A-N-N-O-T spin the tires, but ALL those four tire sure DO hold those James Bond winding-roads even in icy/snowy roads. Can I say it again? I love my 2008 AWD Caliber!
#22 of 24 Dodge Caliber AWD RT, high mil by rtdriver5570 Jun 24, 2009 (7:44 am)
HI is there anyone out there with high Km or Miles that are having any major problems? I'm about to buy out my lease and I'm at 40 000 km and not sure if I should buy the warrenty 2500.00 bumper to bumper. Can anyone help?   Thanks
#23 of 24 Keep it! by 77mac77 Jun 24, 2009 (9:32 am)
I've got 35,000 miles on my '08 Dodge Caliber RT AWD. The ABS went out-- replaced under warranty when the car was about five months old. Had two lug bolts pop-- replaced for free... live in GERMANY, and drive the car +/- 100MPH all the time. Great car. I DO keep the backseat down and out of the way-- at my height [and no kids] it just blocks my view trying to see over the backseat headrests. Wouldn't trade my car for ANY rice-burner. Period.

Replying to: 77mac77 (Jun 24, 2009 9:32 am) I guess that I bought my car during an unusual period of American history: 1.} -- I paid cash. 2.} -- I do NOT qualify for any of those stimulus-checks since my wife's German. 3.} -- I did NOT get $4,500 for BUYING my AWD 2008 Dodge Caliber, RT. 4.} -- Despite Consumer's Digest; Car & Driver; et al HATING American cars,          I bought a Chrysler. 5.} -- I live in Europe-- there ARE other choices. ................................................................................- ....................................................... THAT said, my 2008 Dodge Caliber, All-Wheel Drive, RT-- with 40,000 miles-- is S-T-I-L-L being driven at 100 to 120 MPH, for 100-miles, daily. Like I said before, at MY height, it's best to keep the backseat down because of blind-spots, but, OTHERWISE, excellent car!
