Chrysler Concorde owners have reported 19 problems related to vehicle speed control (under the vehicle speed control category). The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The car completely lost power while on the highway. This occurred on a few occasion but this was the scariest. Losing all power I could only steer wheel and slowly move to the access road. Also there has been times where I am stuck at a location because car will not start. Battery is new so I do believe there is a manufacture malfunction and or faulty parts/components.
