  I have an 08 se and have been trouble free just have 28,000 kms on it . Just love the car before that had an 07 sxt and it was good until I wrote if off. But one of the safest cars I have ever owned. Very reliable and just had the integrated Ipod accessorie added to it works excellent. I also put on the Mopar Performance dual cat back exhaust system on it and the milage is even better than before. So I am very happy with my car.

  Nothing to do WITH the 2010-- I've got a 2008 AWD, RT-- but, the, RECENT
  SMALLER THAN USUAL number of posts to this forum with AMERICAN cars
  is due to the economy which is-- in part-- BECAUSE of the infatuation with
  "rice-burners".
  While I happen to LOVE Chinese- and Thai-food, I hate Sushi and most
  OTHER Japanese and Korean made merchandise.
  I happen to actually ENJOY being A-M-E-R-I-C-A-N-- despite living in a re-
  mote European location [volcano in backyard]. My WWII-veteran father would
  probably roll over in his grave if he knew my last car was German/ Japanese/
  American: a Dahmler-Chrysler with a Mitsubishi motor.
  Well, anyway, I'm not certain WHO the co-owner/owner of Chrysler is now, but I
  REALLY, REALLY, REALLY like my car. I treat my car better than my cat, and
  nearly as well as my wife. I'll always buy AMERICAN cars-- let the Japanese
  buy JAPANESE!
  Read any of my previous posts to see HOW much I love MY car.
  Did they ever fix the problem with seeing OVER the back seats in subsequent
  year models? THAT is the only problem-- which I OVERLOOK by keeping the
  back seats DOWN!-- as I "SEE" it!

  I agree 100% but having said that facts are that there are 4 kinds
  of car owners that post to forums:
  1-people with real problems looking/needing help.
  2-people who suffers buyers regret and any shortcoming percieved or real
  generate rants.
  3-trolls
  4-real car enthusiasts who are more than appliance operaters and
  enjoy exchanging ideals and helping the people with real problems.
  
  I like to think I fall in #4 but then again I have only 3 things to keep
  me busy my car,honeydolist and surfing the net.

  I bought one of the first '07 Caliber SXT's sold in my area (Southern Indiana) and have been very pleased with the car so far. I've had it for 3.5 yrs. , had a flash update for emissions, and had the computer re-flashed for the stalling issue. Other than buying one set of tires for it that's it! I have 98K miles on the car now and am planning on replacing the drive belt and plugs at 100K. It's too bad a lot of Caliber owners got stuck with a lot of issues that new cars should not have. I guess I was fortunate enough to get a good one!
