| Several 'near' accidents before we were made aware that our 99 dodge avenger rear lighting was not working properly. tail & brake lights have suddenly stopped working, and (or) stay lit all the time at frequent intervals. had to have the activator connections repaired, batteries constantly being drained/replaced, front fog lighting burned out on 3 separate occasions/replaced. was told by mechanics that the cars wiring was pulling more voltage than it should. had to remove fuses to ac, etc... to prevent batteries from being drained. repaired again on 10/15/08 and now experiencing same problems with lighting. *tr | |||

| Have replaced brake pads and tires numerous times. check engine light stays on, except for when it starts blinking(will blink 100 times or more before it stays illuminated) maintenance schedule has been followed, most things were replaced before scheduled. door handle broke off when opening the unlocked door. the car now stalls at red lights and sometimes does not want to start at all. the car does not idle correctly ever, usually about 300 rpms. *jb | |||
