2007 Caliber, Need Help!!

2007 Caliber, Need Help!!
I traded in my 2003 Cavalier for a 2007 caliber with 109,915 miles in mid May and its been nothing but trouble. The engine light has gone on five times now for the same code, (Camshaft sensor) and I have brought it in four times already for attempted repair. The code for the camshaft position sensor keeps going on. Each time I've brought the car in,they have tried something different to fix it. They have cleared the senors, replaced both cam solenoids, replaced the oil valves and filter, reprogramed it and flushed the engine. They said next they would need to dismantle the engine! I bought the car with 109,915 miles in NY, so does that mean I can't qualify for the lemon law since its over a 100,000 miles? Does anybody have any suggestions on how I should proceeed?
I like my car but can't understand why the dealership hasn't been able to fix this problem... I'm feeling rather helpless.
Any help would be very much appreciated!

need help 2
I got a Dodge caliber 2007 in May. I'm stuck with a lemon because I bought it with over 100,000 so it isn't covered under the lemon law. It is in the shop for the fifth time and I haven't had it for two months yet! This has been for the engine light. The Dodge place told me that they have to take everything apart to find the problem. Which includes the engine, transmission etc. I have a two year warranty plus extended warranty because of the milage. Does anybody know if there is something I can do to have the dealership take it back and give me one that isn't a lemon? Should I complain that they sold me a lemon and that I could sue? Please help.

Lemon Law only applies to new car under factory waranty, and refund situation varies from state to state.
If you buy a used car, there are usually paper works that you signed "release of liability". that means, if you sue, you most likely would lose.
Most reputable dealers offers like 1 week money back refund for any reason, an 30 day waranty. Not sure about your dealer.
If you have extended waranty, then why is the headache? they r paying. I there is a deductible, you should make the dealer eat them, since the can't fix it right for the 5th time.
btw, what is the exact code number for the CEL?

Finally was confirmed that the dodge place will be replacing my engine and putting one with 37,000 miles on it with a one year warranty. Would it be a rebuilt engine or just a second hand one? Is there any way to find out if there might be previous problems with this replacement engine? I'm assuming they will be checking it over good before installing it. Is there anything that I should know?
