Hi all.....
This is what's wrong the the car so far. Any comments are appreciated.
- tire pressure indicator is flashing a low tire that's not low.
- cooler box slider is loose. (Does anyone have the link to that paperclip fix?)
- rear washer fluid leaks a bit after use. (not a big deal)
- metal rattle in rear underside. (it may be dealer plate frame...not sure)
- center armrest slides way too easily (is there a fix yet?)
- upgraded radio = no Ipod jack (what were they thinking?)
This is still a great car....just a few quirks. I'll post positive feedback later.
Thanks
Marc

Hi all.....
... Any comments are appreciated.
Costs you two cents. :) :) ...oops... We give you two cents!!!
- tire pressure indicator is flashing a low tire that's not low.
Definitely sounds like a dealer issue.
- cooler box slider is loose. (Does anyone have the link to that paperclip fix?)
Go to this link (http://www.caliberforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=304&highlight=chill+zone) and page to item #31 and #37 for PYRO's answer to creating a latch.
- rear washer fluid leaks a bit after use. (not a big deal)
Someone else had this problem and took it back to the dealership. The dealer found out that the connection was not correct...from the factory. The dealer fixed the problem. I can't find the link...but it's here somewhere. Someone else might get lucky finding it for you.
- metal rattle in rear underside. (it may be dealer plate frame...not sure)
This is a thread (http://www.caliberforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=693&highlight=rear+washer) on the problem...but no fix.
- center armrest slides way too easily (is there a fix yet?)
There's no fix for this yet....less 3M spray. <joke...don't do it> We have all realized that this is a minor inconvenience that happens while we're 'resting' on the center console while enjoying our ride. The good thing is that it doesn't just slide back and forth with no pressure on it.
This is still a great car....just a few quirks. I'll post positive feedback later.
I kind of consider all feedback to be of a positive nature. It's the NON-feedback that's negative. Thanks for sharing your observations. We look forward to more. Go to this link (http://www.caliberforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=292) for another good "observation" discussion.
Congratulations on the purchase!!

Thanks Tyke!! Well received. :)

Sorry...no....what the person meant is on 6 disks you can store close to 6 gig on the disks. It does not have the "Auxillary" jack for mp3 players....only the base model has this jack. I guess they figured at 6 disks of mp3's you would not need it. It does not store any data. The upgraded one does take 6 disks though. The entry level stereo has the aux jack but "Can not" play mp3 disks. Hope this helps!
