| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Since june 2003 (after my warranty ran out) , my 2000 plymouth neon needs to be jumped every 2 weeks. i was told it was the battery, so i went to auto zone where they used their tester and i purchased a battery from them. but since then, i still need a jump every 2 weeks and sometimes sooner (when it's cold or rainy). i took it to the dealership and they looked at it, telling me they couldn't find anything wrong with it, but charged me about $150 for the labor. i had the car jumped on 11/23, drove it around, left it sit idling for about an hour, turned it off and it started right up. but on 11/25, i needed a jump again b/c it was 44 degrees outside. could this possibly be a problem with a component either in the alternator or something else? i am really frustrated at this point being told there is nothing wrong with the vehicle by the dealership that i am seriously thinking about trading it in b/c i am getting nowhere. |
