I was driving to work today and after a 10 min stop at farmacy was imposible for me to start my car again. The battery is charge, the lights and horn are working, only the radio and the fron panel indicators are not working, please if there is some experience with this threat.
Thanks

My 2001 Sebring 4 door did this to me 3 times. After the first 2 instances, I called Chrysler's tollfree number and was told to take the car in and have the compass module replaced. The damn compass was disabling the ignition when I parked facing west (no kidding!!). That solved the no start problem for a month. The third no start problem I found myself. The battery cable clamping bolt on the main fusebox under the hood had been stripped at the factory and came loose. Fixed it with a big steel washer and new nut, and, no problems since. The dealer throughout this ordeal was a lot of help - they told me I was nuts, there was nothing wrong with my car.

Hope this helps:

Unfortunately, the car decided to die while parked in a rest area off a North bound interstate. It would not start until I'd ground the battery flat and it was jumped off another vehicle. At least Chrysler is getting more intriguing with their built-in gremlins.
