Just a note of interest-if your '07 has a pause or hesitates on acceleration from a dead
stop then you can try this remedy that has worked for many owners.
1-Turn ignition key to ON not start.
2-Slowly depress gas pedal to floor while counting to 15.
3-Slowly release gas pedal full up while counting to 15.
4-Turn ignition to off and remove key.
5-Start car and take for test drive.

You can do this whenever you feel the need to it WILL NOT damage your Caliber.[/quote]

So I am finally getting the Caliber into the dealer to get this flash update done tomorrow. The note above resets something I am guessing. I am not a mechanic so can one of you brains could tell me what is being reset I would greatly appreciate it!!!

The Caliber like many new cars is fly by wire-there is no physical
linkage between the gas pedal and the injection/throttle.The above
procedure re-calibrates the the linearity of the variable resister
that is the gas pedal so the ECM sees a nice smooth acceleration
curve.It works-do as instructed.

Will they still fix these for free even if your warranty has run out???

I have the squeaking passenger seat.

This calibration is correct, BUT, aren't you supposed to wait 10 minutes, or more, after doing said sequence?
Is what I read, some time back.
