My car will not start with the remote or bush button. And 3 weeks ago. I was driving my car and the abs service light came on and the battery light came on and some other symbol came on. I drove the car home stopped it. Turned motor off. Waited started car again and all sorts of lights came on and off then the service abs warning light came back on again and the battery light . Taking off the battery negative terminal would reset ecu. 1 week later I am driving to the store and light came on saying that the engine was overheating. Now as I was driving home the needle started to go back down and the light turned off. When I got home I checked my coolant level and it was just fine. So why did it do this? another thing now just last night, Nov 11th, Saturday night, I went out to the garage to start my car and it would not start?when I tried to start it I heard a clicking sound that was coming from the radiator area. The emergency flashers were flashing and the car would not even turn over. I got my multimeter and checked my battery and it was completely dead. So I charged it over night. I tried to start it next morning it would not start. My Charger has a alternator check setting on it and it said it was charging. Still would not start. When I put on the battery cables? the flashers and horn would sound off? I pull the fuses on both and tried starting it again no luck. I then used the engine start feature on my battery Charger and the car started right up no problem. I put the fuses back closed hood closed trunk and took car out for a drive for about 5 miles no problems. Came back home stopped car and turned off engine and re-started it several times with no issues. It started up fine. Does my car fall under the safety recall p60 / NHTSA 14v-634 alternator - 2011-2014 Dodge Chrysler & Jeep. Do I need one of those new alternators?.

When I took my car in to the dealership I was never told I had to replace my battery. 10 20, 2009 I was at cvs store I got in my car started it then the battery blew completely up. It sounded like a boom. The store clerk ran out and on lookers told me the car was smoking from the trunk. In disbelief I ran back to the store to call the fire department ASAP. When the fire department opened the trunk sparks from the battery was beginning to start a fire. One gentleman from the fire department said he would have to cut the battery cable because it was electrical problems in the battery or else the car would explode because it was to close to gas pump. He told me I was very lucky because if the blast was any stronger it could have blown up the car completely if the fire sparks and gas collided. From the blast my neck jerked very hard and I am experiencing dizzy ness from the explosion and battery acid fumes and minor back pains. I would like to know what my legal rights or and option to get this issue resolved. At this time my car is completely damaged I have no electrical power at this time and my front windshield was cracked. I have no transportation wanted to see if Dodge would take responsibility in this electrical system battery defect which almost cause me my life.
