    When I went to the dealer for the test drive, they had to jump the car as it had been awhile since someone drove it and we've had some seriously cold weather here (I'm in Northern Indiana, bought the car in Chicago). I went to a local parts store last week and my battery is at 60%, so it's high...

  9. Dodge Caliber Diesel
    Right. I just noticed both of my break lights does not come on when i engage the break pedal. Normal "on light" is fine on the rear lights, they just do not light up more when I press the break pedal. Initial thought, over charge or something caused both the light bulbs to break. Checked them...

    A while back, all of my blinkers failed one after another within a period of about 2 days. I checked all the bulbs and they're good. Several months later I'm still having the blinker issue (I'm from NC so blinkers are optional- HA!) but now I am also having a problem where I have no or very...

    2018 UPDATE _ I STARTED THIS THREAD BASED ON A SURVEY OF SUPPLIER RECOMMENDATIONS. THE ADVISED 278mm LENGTHS DID NOT FIT MY CALIBER BATTERY TRAY. The Diesel Chryslers come with Gel spiral cell batteries, some 800 CCA. They are pricey and do not have a long life. The Caliber Battery tray has...

  17. Dodge Caliber Electrical Problems and Questions
    I have an 08 Caliber SE 2.0. My troubles started with the "diesel" noise, which ended up being the alternator. I originally thought it to be the decoupler pulley, but it ended up being internal bearings. Anyway, it started off with the noise, then the other day I was sitting at a light, light...
