Hi,
I am having the same problem. I have a 1999 Concorde with 122K miles and it just locked up yesterday. My son removed the plastic covers and I can not see any obvious problem. Please share any info on this problem. Thanks.

Hi,
Just to let everyone know, I read somewhere else that the key cylinder tumblers get jammed because of dirt/sand/junk. To fix, with the key in the ignition, lightly tap the top of the key with a rubber hammer or handle of a screw driver 10 to 20 times. This will un-jam the tumblers. It definitely worked for me.

Chrysler Concorde 2000 by rowserm

While I was driving on the freeway yesterday, my speedometer stopped working. I continued to drive a short distance but I notice a hesitancy when I made the light. As I was near my home, I continued to drive. As I made the turn into the driveway, the car died. After a minute, I turned the car back on, it started, but the speedometer is not working. Any ideas before I take it to the dealership? I have 65,000 miles on the car. Thank you

Sorry to here of your problem. I experienced the same thing about 6 mo. ago. It ended up being either the input or output sensor for the transmission. Unfortunately for me , I spent 300.00 on it. I believe both sensors are only about 45.00. If you know anybody who is mechanically inclined have them install the sensors. It will save you a couple hundred bucks

Buying a 2001 Concorde LX by rkkadk

I have found a 2001 LX with 63,000 and the dealer is asking $6,400 for it. It does have ABS, but no CD player. Do you all think this is a good deal?

96 Concorde Heater problems by tjo1

I'm on my 2nd winter and another 370.00 to replace a heater door motor and thermostat in my 3.5. Still no heat to speak of, a little until I turn the blower on and it dissipates. Mechanics say core ok? Any suggestions..I have came across a few postings referring to Concorde heater problem but can't find original message. Please help.

Limp mode fixed by tjo1

It might be important to add that every morning I would have to start my Concorde twice, the first time it would not shift into 2nd gear, but when I pulled over, shut it off and started it again, it would shift. I also had a check engine light. I was told it was going into limp mode and would probably need an overhaul. Happily, the mechanic who hasn't been abe to fix the heater replaced the valve body that had holes in it and the tranny has been fine for about a month. I have had a lot of problems with front end noise and since 98 have had sway bars, idler arms, motor mounts and bushings all replaced. The car is back to pulling real hard to the right, so I had them checked and was told they are all ok. I know it's time to move on, but I'm hoping to fix the heater and hang in a while longer. Again, any ideas on the heater (see message above). Could it be related to any of this?

My 98 shimmies at low speeds also. I've had all the suspension parts checked several times. Neither the Chrysler dealer nor the tire dealers could find anthing wrong and have no suggestions. I did read in Popular Mechanics that a slightly out of round rim can cause this problem. They showed a simple test for checking if this is the case but I haven't tried it yet. It involves jacking up the car, setting a straight edge close to the inside edge on the rim and then rotating the tire to see if the rim is true. You can probably look it up in the past issues, The articll was in one of the fall of '05 issues.

I have has the same things going on with my car for the past year, but my check engine light comes on when it acts like it is going to die. Have you figured out what it is yet? I have taken it in 2 times they tell me it sensors,but I replaced them. Now I throwing my hands in the air because they want to charge my 500.00 to tear the car apart and they can't say they will even find the problem.
