I have taken many long trips and the front seats never leave you with any discomfort when getting out. see full Dodge Caliber review |

With front seats all the way back, limited legroom. Not a big deal see full Dodge Caliber review |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
When front seats are sild back, very little leg room for passengers in back--even kids. see full Dodge Caliber review |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
Not enough rear knee room. Hard to enter and exit the back seat. see full Dodge Caliber review |

The seat heaters are an absolute joke. We thought they were broken. No, they're just terrible. If you live in regular -10c weather you will want a a plug-in seat warmer.
The seats themselves are fantastic for driving.
Driver's seat does not slide forward when you move the seatback to access the back seat. Seems fine, who wants to reset their seat position every time.
The passenger seat does get loose when you pop the seat back up, but the chair slides around loose and left to gravity, will sit at the rearmost spot. Might be nice if it could sit in a divot at the full frontmost position.
