Description of the problem | On several occasions beginning when the car had approximately 20,000 miles around feb/mar 2014, the car would not start. This happens after the car has been parked overnight and the ambient outside air temp cools to 40 degrees farenheit or colder. Center display between speedo and tach states "do not place the car in p". The car will sometimes start with booster cables. The car has shown various electrical issue at different speeds (0-70mph) since the first failure to start (abs light on /off, airbag light on /off, stability control light on/off, radio/hvac screen not working). Car has been taken to dodge dealership several times with no confirmed cause and no effective repair. Car would not start this morning (5-13-2015) , ambient air temp approximately 55 degrees farenheit. No aftermarket accesories have ever been added to this car, all factory original equipment (or changed at dealership during repair attempts). Very irritated being that the car has only 32,000 miles. |
