Over the past 3 years, I have had to have the battery replaced three times in this car. Each time I have asked for an explanation as to why a year old battery would go bad. The explanation last week was "a short in the battery, not caused by the car. " since the first 2 times it was replaced by the warranty, I can't understand this issue. This time the battery was not covered. Each time this has happened, it has been without warning, no lights flashing, nothing. Just go to start the car and nothing. I have been left stranded each time this has happened. Clearly, either there is an issue with the batteries being installed, or there is an issue with my car. Either way, it should be covered by the company. As it is, I had to shell out $150 last week.

My car is only two years old. When we bought the car we bought an aftermarket warranty for the car. My instrument panel and interior lights completely went out one day and I took it to the dealer I bought it from. They amazing could not find anything. A second time this has happened and the battery died on the car. The dealership replaced the battery they said because that was the cause of my problem. They never tried to charge or jump the battery . I have yet to pick up my car, but I don't think that the battery going dead caused this issue. If that was the case the battery would not allow me to ever start the car. I believe that this is a dangerous issue that needs to be addressed with Dodge as I have talked to others who have had this issue. Also I don't think that it is appropriate for a car with a bumper to bumper warranty on it that is only two years old should be breaking down. It is very unsafe to have all the gauges go out, and as soon as I can I am getting rid of the car. I just don't want anyone else getting hurt because of Dodge's reluctance to address this problem.

Automobile failed to start, acts as if battery has bad cell, tester shows good battery, engine will not turnover or start.

I will try to only refer to the visits made to the dealership to repair my vehicle directly relevant to this issue, though keep in mind I have been in service on 8 different occasions with my car. On may 7, 2001, I got in my vehicle to go to work in the morning, the car was dead and would not start. I called roadside assistance. My car was towed to the dealership, and I was told that the battery had a dead cell, and was replaced.

Since 1/15/01 the battery is dead if the car is not driven every day. If we let the car sit for one full day, the battery is dead. The dealer has replaced the module and radio thinking that is the problem. It is back in the shop now because the battery went dead after one day of not driving the car. The technicians cannot find the problem of why the battery goes dead.

The original battery was replaced 12,000 miles ago and less than 3 months later this new battery died. Chrysler & dealer refused to replace regardless of the fact that the battery lasted less than 3 months. The cause of this second battery failure like the first was determined to be its closeness to the engine block and its intense aount of heat generated during normal use combined with the tropical climate of florida. I beleive that Chrysler is aware of this but will not offer a protective shield to reduce the extreme heat that the battery must endure. I contacted Chrysler today and the associate not only was rude but like the dealer did not offer any possible solution. The dealer claims that another replacement battery for my automobile will cost $110. 00 plus tax and would not offer any further assistance.

The battery died causing the vehicle not to start and the remote control does not function properly. Nlm.
