Company paid for it so i didnt have a choice. I thought the tranny was all fucked up when i first drove it.... then i figgured it was the CVT tranny. Its a sad car no one should buy it.

I could see that if the car made some good power.... you can hold it at the RPM were it makes the most power.... how ever in this car it hangs out at 6,000 rpm and still wont go.

Here I come to be the combo breaker - I drove my aunts Caliber SE just like this one except it was a 5speed to St louis and back and I won't lie - I rather enjoyed it for a SUV/Wagon crossover.

Well a 5 speed would have been more fun and you were driving highways... not curvy roads and hills with a CTV tranny.... Trust me i... it sucks.

dodge wonders why they are going to be gone in a couple of years.

I have been driving it for a while now and i have many complaints it just feels cheep and boxy. if you have a family and dont want a "mini van" this would be ok. Cant tow anything and the suspension is tuned weird.... It will bit hard then it will just "let go" without warning. the breaks are descent though (miss a few deer and other animals) My biggest compliant is the blind spot... i look of my shoulder to switch lanes and i can see anything. i pretty much have to use the mirrors witch for a family car is a dangerous thing i think. those are my two cents for right now.
