    Car has done this from the beginning. No matter how many times I reset it, it always whinds up faster than it should be.

    The clock will gain time, and also short out at times and come right back on. It may have something to do with the elictrical for the headlights also, but at this time the problem is still not fixed.

    Mine is slower then real time, I have to change my clock every couple months or it will be behind by 3 to 5 minutes.

    Clock gains time-1 minute per day, even after changing it out. I had the same problem with a rental Avenger too. I think it's an inherent problem for this vehicle.

  • 2008 30,000 Miles
    Been creeping up in time since 25,0000-30,000 miles Bought the car used at about 20,000 miles. Didn't notice until after 1 year in 2009... I just keep setting it back every few weeks. More of an annoyance than anything.

    I thought it had something to do with my cancelling of the satilite radio. I thought maybe the clock ran off of satilite time?
