The 2007 Dodge Caliber SXT is a relatively easy car to maintain. Many of the headlights are easily accessible by simply reaching behind the bulb housing, allowing for reliable bulb changes when necessary. The engine coolant reservoir is very easy to monitor, given its open access to its level markers, hoses, and cap. Changing the engine air filter shouldn’t be a problem, as no tools are needed to disengage its housing to access the filter itself.
However, the 2007 Dodge Caliber SXT has its downsides. The front turn signal won’t allow for reliable access as the wheel well lining will need to be disconnected and pried back in order to reach it. The tail lights will require an entire housing removal for access, which can end up being a rather time-consuming process. Checking the transmission fluid may be a problem, as there’s no dipstick provided to monitor the reservoir’s fluid levels.
