Battery problems of the 2000 Chrysler Concorde

Two problems related to battery have been reported for the 2000 Chrysler Concorde. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Battery problem

Failure Date: 07/25/2006

I own a 2000 Chrysler Concorde. I have a problem that the interior lights on the door and inside come on for no apparent reason. I have taken the vehicle to shops to find the problem but the lights never come on. Frustrating is putting it lightly. The lights have come on while the vehicle is powered off and has drained my car battery. I have been dealing with this problem for quite some time. This on and off with the interior lights has been going on now for three + years. Good thing I own another vehicle that is not a Chrysler product.

2 Battery problem

On several occasions, the engine and electronics have completely shutdown while driving 10 to 40 mph, especially during wet weather. It was determined that the problem is caused when the battery gets wet and temporarily shortens out the electrical system. The battery is located in a low location, forward of the passenger-side front tire where it can get wet. Consumer recommends a design change to prevent the battery terminals from becoming wet.
