Problem overview

Some Dodge Caliber owners report experiencing stalling and high revving issues, which may indicate a faulty throttle body. Common symptoms include the check engine light illuminating and erratic engine behavior, such as high RPMs and stalling. Neglecting these throttle body issues can lead to more significant problems, including reduced power and increased emissions. Regular maintenance or replacement may be necessary due to malfunctions or sensor issues. The replacement process is essential and requires clearing codes from the engine control module afterward, as well as ensuring the throttle body flap moves freely before installation. While the cost of replacing a throttle body can reach up to $1,000 for high-end vehicles, some owners find that performing the replacement themselves can save money, with parts typically costing $200 or less.
