NHTSA Complaint #10381236 — 2008 DODGE AVENGER

I HAVE A 2008 DODGE AVENGER RT. IN THE BEGINNING OF DECEMBER, WHEN I WOULD START UP MY CAR ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS WOULD COME ON AND THEN THE CAR WOULD CUT OFF. I WOULD TRY AGAIN IN 30MINS OR SO AND IT WOULD START AND STAY RUNNING, BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON AND READ NO BUS. EVENTUALLY THE LIGHT WENT OFF AND THE CAR RAN FINE. THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN EXCEPT THIS TIME THE CAR WOULDN'T COME BACK ON. I HAD AAA COME OUT TO CHARGE AND CHECK THE BATTERY, AND THEY SAID THAT MY BATTERY WAS DEAD, BUT IT WAS A GOOD BATTERY. SOMETHING IN MY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS CAUSING IT TO DRAIN. I TOOK MY CAR TO THOMPSON CHRYSLER AND TOLD THEM THAT IT WASN'T THE BATTERY. THEY CLAIMED TO FIX THE PROBLEM DAYS LATER, BUT WITHIN AN HOUR OF PICKING IT UP I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, WARNING LIGHTS EXCEPT THIS TIME THE CAR WAS SHAKING VIOLENTLY. I TOOK THE CAR TO THEM 4 TIMES WITH TODAY BEING THE 5TH. THEY REPLACED MY BATTERY 2 TIMES AS IF THAT WAS THE PROBLEM AND RIPPED OUT MY ALARM SYSTEM THE LAST TIME. I HAD TO PAY FOR THIS, BUT THE SAME PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED. CORPORATE WAS OF NO HELP IN THE SITUATION. I AM SEEKING LEGAL COUNSEL BECAUSE THIS MORNING I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WHEN THE CAR SHUT OFF. I'M JUST RELIEVED THAT THE BABY WASN'T IN THE CAR. *TR
