2008 Dodge Caliber SXT CVT review from UK and Ireland
"Best specification for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
The A pillars are too thick and can obstruct vision.
The plastic is too hard & scratches too easily.
The suspension could be better over small bumps & ridges.
There is too much tyre roar over 40 mph on certain road surfaces.
Despite these faults, the car is very comfortable and has a excellent tight turning circle, with a full specification on the SXT CVT model not found on any other car that I know of, especially at the price.
This my second Caliber, and provided stupid Chrysler returns the TPM, the auto dip mirror & the engine cover, I would buy another.
