So I switched from G.M. and jumped into an 04 Concorde LXI. Not a bad boat but it has some problems. I was wondeirng if anoyne else has had these symproms:
A) The check engine light comes on randomly as you are driving once every couple of weeks. The engine "stumbles" twice and then resumes regular operation. The check engine light goes of after the first or second time you restart the car.
B) The garage door opening feature seems to have a mind of its own - several times I have driven home and watched my garage door going up and down like a YoYo. I'll move the car out of range for a couple hours and all is well.
C) recently this new thing came up -- The check engine light comes on -- the engines stalls out and then I sit there for about 10 minutes -- turn the key and it runs perfect.
I spoke to my service manager at the dealership he keeps saying that I have to bring it in while the problem is active, Only problem is that I can have an occurrance and then nothng for days. By the time I get it to the dealer, the issues are resolved. They have tried putting it on their computers but the only thing that has come out of it is the bill!

The car is definitely possessed. Bring in a master electrician for an exorcism

Mine is a '98 but has been the most trouble-free car I've ever owned. Nothing went wrong until about 160,000 miles, then I had the electric radiator fan go out. A few months ago the climate control system started acting up, but at 186,000 miles I guess I can expect something to go wrong. Otherwise, all I've done is change oil, brakes, tires and a timing belt. If I didn't need something with AWD my next car would be a used Concorde or 300M. The 300C/Magnum/Charger don't do a thing for me.
