2 Car Will Not Start problem of the 2002 Dodge Neon

Failure Date: 05/05/2005

Back in 2003 I turned my vehicle off and it wouldnt start again. The vehicle was only a few months old so I called road side assistance they took it to carmax in los angeles, CA for at the time I was living in the area. Carmax told me the battery was dislodged I found this funny becuase I have never touched the battery the vehicle was only a few months old. When I had turned the key all the lights went crazy and it wouldnt start. They informed me that the battery had drained itself. Well they changed the battery and everything was ok until now. About 1 year and half later it happened again. When I was driving the battery light came on then the seatbelt light, brake light and the spedometer started to blink. I pulled over and turned the vehicle off and it would not start again. I got a jump to get home and it blinked the whole way there. I then turned the car off when I got home. When I went to the car in the morning to go to work the car would not start again. I caled aaa and they gave me a jump and I went to the auto place and got a battery it has been a few hours and its ok right now but for how long. Then I read about this person here that was having the same problem as I did and she needed to have her car all rewired. I am taking to back to the dealership and suggest that anyone else do the same.
