  • Automatic transmission
  • 12,000 miles

it first started on 12/30/14 my daughters birthday. I went to leave it would not start. it became often. I kept taking it to the dealer and they could not find anything wrong. they kept saying a small amount of draw each tme. they replaced the battery twice. first time said it had a bad cell. replaced it again it would not start after 4 weeks.I EITHER RECHARGED THE BATTERY TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP OR HAD IT TOWED IN. THEY COUNLD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. THEY TOLD ME OVER AND OVER I HAD TO DRIVE THE CAR AT LEAST EVERY 2 DAYS TO CHARGE THE ENGINE AND I COULD NOT MAKE SMALL STOPS TO GROCERY STORES. I took it in over 2 years with same problem. it would not start after 2 or 3 days not in use. I called Chrysler--no use.now out of warranty I have 40k miles on it now . I keep a battery charger in the car. o yeah they told me to get a battery charger what you do not have to plug in to electric current. no clicking no nothing. a dead battery each charge it up and it works fine but the aggravation of it not starting when I want it. I tke a long trip and 3 days later does not start without a jump. brand new it as a lemon never a dodge again. and when it would rain it would not start. I do have door locks that open when you touch them if that is a drain but had also left them unlocked if it would be a problem. it does not matter. it is a push button start so all locks do not work without recharging.
