1998 Chrysler Concorde Common Problems, Issues, Recalls, and Reliability

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Recall for fuel leaks

  Dodge issued a recall for fuel leaks. Dealers will reinforce the fuel rail to prevent cracking and replace the O-ring seals on the fuel rail and fuel injectors.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Starting Issues and Trouble Code Due to Defective Cam/Crankshaft Sensor

  When a no start condition is caused by a faulty camshaft or crankshaft sensor , related fault codes stored in the powertrain control module (PCM) should not be trusted. Our technicians tell us that under certain conditions a fault code can be stored for the "good" sensor. Care should be taken to properly diagnose this condition.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Worn Sway Bar Bushings/End Links May Cause Noise in Front Suspension

  Worn sway bar bushings or sway bar end links may cause a rattling or clunking noise from the front suspension during low-speed driving. Though not always the root cause, front struts are often replaced for this condition.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Damaged Cam Position Sensor May Cause Engine Problems

  A damaged cam position sensor (or its wires and connector) can cause intermittent stalling, stumbles, or hard starting.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Stalling or Low Engine Idle Speed Due to Dirty Throttle Body

  A dirty throttle body may cause low engine idle speed or frequent stalling, as oily residue blocks air flow in the throttle when the throttle is closed. Throttle body cleaning may be necessary to correct this condition. Our technicians caution against spraying cleaner directly onto the throttle body as this may damage the throttle position sensor (TPS).

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Replace Lift Plates Separately From Window Regulator

  The window glass lift plates tend to bend or break and cause the window glass to tilt and bind in the door. The lift plates can be replaced separately from the window regulator . In more severe cases, however, a new window regulator may also require replacement.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Key May Not Turn or be Removed Due to Wear/Failed Lock Cylinder

  If the ignition key does not turn and/or cannot be removed, a new lock cylinder may be needed. A worn key can also cause similar problems.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Poor Heat Output Due to Air in Cooling System After Service

  Poor output from the heater and/or engine overheating can be caused by air left in the cooling system after the cooling system has been serviced. Our technicians tell us the proper coolant fill procedure should be used to prevent this problem from occurring.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Update to BCM Will Fix Problems With Instrument Cluster/Fuel Gauge

  The instrument cluster may illuminate randomly to its full brightness and/or the fuel gauge may drop to the empty position. Typically the symptoms are infrequent and the instrument cluster returns to normal operation after a few seconds. An update to the body control module (BCM) will fix this problem.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Cleaner/Disinfectant Issued to Address Musty Odor in AC System

  Some vehicles may develop a musty odor coming from the HVAC system, Dodge has issued a cleaner/disinfectant and a coating for the evaporator designed to inhibit bacterial growth.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Make Sure Air Bleed Valve is Open Before Refilling Coolant

  Before refilling the coolant , make sure the air bleed valve is open. Follow the proper fill procedure—it will prevent problems with overheating, low heat output from the heater, and possible coolant bottle failure.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Door Weatherstrips May Shrink With Age and Leave Gaps

  Door weatherstrips mounted on the body tend to shrink with age, leaving gaps that can create wind noise or allow water to leak into the car. Our technicians suggest the door weatherstrips should be replaced to correct these issues.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Under-Tensioned Alternator Drive Belt May Cause Growling Noise at Low Speeds

  An loose alternator drive belt may cause a growling noise in the engine area at low speeds (usually when accelerating from a stop). This is often mistaken for catalytic converter failure.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Replace Swivel Pads on Exhaust Rocker Arms to Fix Ticking Sound

  A ticking sound (lasting only two to three seconds) may be heard when starting a cold engine. Worn swivel pads on the exhaust rocker arms are commonly the cause. Worn swivel pads will require replacement.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Corrosion of AC Evaporator Core

  Debris and corrosion in the AC housing may cause the AC evaporator core to develop a refrigerant leak.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Worn Wires to Output Speed Sensor May Cause Problems With Cruise Control/Shifting/Speedometer

  Fatigued or broken wires to the output speed sensor can cause problems with the cruise control , erratic shifting, and speedometer operation . This may also cause check engine light illumination.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Software Updates Available to Address Transmission Issues

  Software updates are available to address transmission issues. However, due to the age of these vehicles, mechanical failures are more likely to be causing transmission problems. If a mechanical failure is repaired or the transmission is replaced, it is important to make sure any software updates have been taken care of. Failure to do so could result in continuing transmission issues.

• 1998 Chrysler Concorde Trouble code in BCM may prevent hot air from climate control system

  A trouble code stored in the body control module (BCM) can prevent warm or hot air output from the climate control system. When the cause of the trouble code is fixed, heater function should return.
