I recently purchased the vehicle from the original owner. The vehicle light flashes while driving. The mileage is currently 91K miles. Now the lightening bolt symbol will not turn off and the vehicle will not accelerate over 39 miles. I have not been able to drive the vehicle for over a week.

Upon completely filling the fuel tank, the engine repeatedly stalls after I've driven it for a few minutes. It doesn't matter if I'm on the freeway or in the middle of an intersection trying to make a turn, the engine just dies. This issue has the potential to create a very hazardous if not life threatening situation.

Feels like the car is going to hit a corner or bump and the whole front and tires are gonna come off. Also the gas cap light keeps coming on followed by the engine light. For some reason my gas cap keeps opening itself like there is air or pressure literally unscrewing it. The gas cap happens when parked

At first, the service engine soon light would begin flashing when I hit the accelerator pedal and I lost power. Could not go over 35 mph. Then by the time I made it off the highway, the light stayed flashing all the time. And I have not been able to regain proper power at all. It uses a ton of gas and when sitting in park, if I push the break pedal, there is a clicking noise under where the shifter is located. With losing power on the highway, other traffic and myself were in danger. I looked online and many many ppl have the same issue with no luck of fixing the problem even after hundreds of dollars at the mechanic. Also, many have filed complaints and have gotten no where and very negative responses when calling Dodge. I dont have hundreds of dollars for repairs as I am on disability. Hope this has became a recall issue and I dont have a huge out of pocket expense. I travel to drs alot

While traveling 80 mph on the interstate my Caliber stopped accelerating and I rapidly lost speed; however, the car was still running and no matter how far I pushed the gas pedal it would not accelerate. I had to turn on my hazards and make my way across 4 lanes to get off the interstate. I was able to make it to a gas station by coasting where I stopped the Caliber, turned it off, and let it sit for a minute. When I turned it back on it seemed to be fine. In doing research for repair I've found there's a whole community of Dodge owners that are experiencing this loss of acceleration and getting the run around from Dodge dealers. I believe Dodge should be responsible for my repairs as there's no regular maintenance that I can do as a car owner to regulate/improve the electronic throttle control and it seems to be a faulty part or computer function that I have no control over.

I have had issues with this vehicle such as the O2 sensors that has to be repaired every year. The safety issues with this vehicle if you are at stop sign or just idle in traffic- the engine light will begin to blink and the car begins to move back and forth..also, it constantly over heats after much repairs- these symptoms continue to persist-the gentleman at good year told me that some of your parts O2 sensor was recalled- failed to get assistance from Chrysler- the overheating is annoying- I can not drive over 45 miles without over heating. I had to pull over at the exit while other cars- with incoming traffic was coming very fast and the car is in motion on the highway with other drivers- because the car begins to pull - I have to pull over so that the engine can cool down-..sometimes in traffic- the ABS light will come on and begin to shift gears in traffic- this happens occasionally. The safety issues are engine overheats, start jerking back and forth at stop signs or just being idle in traffic, occasionally just shift acceleration in the middle of traffic. Th most recent incident was last night- I had to pull over- car started jerking- it overheated- 07-19-2017 I am filing another complaint- called Chrysler said that I had to pay for the diagnostic testing on something that is their manufacturer fault.

While driving auto stops being able to accelerate. Have to coast to side and stop. Throttle control light comes on. Usually after little while can turn back on and go. I also have Chrysler sebring 2008 tjat does same thing even after. Multiple trips to Dodge service. Read where this is a biv problem MA NY are having but Dodge/Chrysler still doing nothing to repair. Dangerous I was on freeway going 65 mp and almost hit NY four cars. Happens more at fast speeds.

While driving the car would loose all power and engine would die. If I slowed down to make a turn, car would do same thing, loose power and engine would die. It would also have trouble starting. Wouldn't stay running. In school pickup line, car would loose all power and engine would die as soon as gas peddle was pushed on. This would happen on the main highway, city roads, school pickup/ drop off line, making turns, and when first starting car. It would also do these things when slowing down and accelerating. I had this problem with the car for nearly a month, before the car completely shut down and wouldn't start. One of the wires connected to fuel pump burnt through the housing. With the fuel pump being in the gas tank don't you think there could have been an explosion.

Engine throttle control light came on after pumping gas, vehicle vibrated. Light came on intermittently on trip home, would slow speed down and it would go off. Exited interstate, came to full stop, accelerated to go, and car vibrated and almost stalled as pulling out. Drove vehicle for two more days - light came on and would vibrate - almost stalled in 2 busy intersections. Previous recall on 25K 2007 Dodge Calibers - mine not included in recall. Unable to get an appt at Dodge dealer for a week. Decided this was a safety issue and did not drive. Issue happened while driving and stationary, on highway at high speeds and on city street, turning. Issue caused the vehicle to not go normal speeds - was unable to go posted speed limit. Contacted Dodge/Chrysler recall - they will not admit this is a widespread issue. Numerous vehicle owners are running into this at 90-130K miles. It is a safety issue if your computer or electronic malfunctions as you are driving 70 mph or through a busy intersection and vehicle stops. Was going various speeds as I was 90 miles away from home 70 mph, then today could not go higher than 40 mph.

Bought car used in 2014. Within a week the maniverter needed replaced. Dash lights recently stopped working while driving at night. Cannot see speedometer or other gauges at night. Transmission stops working when it is hot out, trans temp light comes on and trans shuts down when driving on highways which has almost caused numerous accidents. Car stalls several times after filling with gas causing dangerous situations when driving especially pulling out into traffic after filling gas tank. Control arms and ball joints on front of car replaced with parts from Dodge dealer and are bad for a second time. We will never buy another Dodge vehicle.

I bought this car used with a 90 day full warranty and 2 year power train. In the first 90 days I took the car back to Toyota used lot who in turn took it to Dodge to investigate the loose steering and also the stalling issues. Dodge repeatedly said nothing is wrong. To date, a year later, they wont fix the fuel pump which I have learned is a known issue on this model/year and causes stalling. I have stalled on the freeway and have children.... its very upsetting.

Our car was purchased used two years ago and always had an issue with hesitation with both acceleration and idling after completely filling the gas tank. Last week it started having the same hesitation/sputtering issue but without having recently filled up the gas tank. It sputters/hesitates to accelerate while going anywhere between 20-30 mph (we did not take it on the freeway out of fearing it would die going faster so we are unsure how it does at higher speeds). It also started to stall while idling at a stop light. It started up again fine both times it died but continued to hesitate while accelerating. Our radio hasn't come on a few times when we start the car (this has happened approximately ten times since we've had the car) and the fuse is fine. We pop the fuse out and put it back in and the radio starts up fine again. We are taking it to a mechanic on Saturday to have the system "updated" because we saw there was a bulletin about our model of car needing an update, but I'm fairly sure this has to do with the tipm after reading other people's stories online.

My car was parked, upon trying to start the car, no luck. Had the car towed to the dealer. Fuel pump was the initial diagnosis, but then also the wiring harness was melted. $642.69 later my car was running. Not a happy camper.

While driving my 2007 Dodge Caliber with my two young kids in the back my electronic throttle control light on the dashboard came on about 30 seconds later my car would not accelerate. I was able to pull into a parking lot without causing an accident. After buying a E.T.C. and having it replaced about 12 months later the etc went out again this time on the highway while doing 65 mph my car would no longer accelerate the etc had rusted closed again. Liking online some of these cars have been recalled for an issue withthe etc. I'm afraid for my family's safety there's no warning other than a light and moments later your car iisno longer accelerating.

My car has stalled several times. Started in December 2014 car stalled an I turned it back on basically turning heat off. Since then it randomly sputtered. Driving a month later it shut off on me while driving, I turned heat off again thinking it was that. Took it to the shop and they couldn't find anything wrong with it. A month later engine light comes on an code is the one for gas cap. I bought a new one, 2 weeks later while parked waiting for my kids to come out of school my car dies acting like it wants to start. Later to find out the problem is the fuel pump! the wires inside fuel pump and the harness were burnt up ! it's really wired and fixed. I didn't get a new fuel pump just new wires. Can someone please let me know their situation! I'm scared to even get back in the car especially with two kids who sit in the back seat
