1997 Chrysler Concorde Common Problems, Issues, Recalls, and Reliability

• 1997 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.

• 1997 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.

• 1997 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).

• 1997 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.

• 1997 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.

• 1997 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.

• 1997 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.

• 1997 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.

• 1997 Chrysler Concorde Hard starting due to leaking fuel pump check valve

  A defective fuel pump check valve (which maintains fuel pressure in the system when the vehicle is not running) may lead to long cranking times or hard starting (sometimes with stalling). The fuel pump should be replaced. However, if these symptoms are accompanied by Check Engine Light illumination, there may be a problem with the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor.

• 1997 Chrysler Concorde Automatic Transmission May Have Shifting Issues/Noise While in Reverse

  The automatic transmission can develop problems like harsh shifting, shuddering between shifts, and a buzzing while in Reverse. Repairs for many of these problems are outlined in service bulletins and require removal and disassembly of the transmission.

• 1997 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.

• 1997 Chrysler Concorde Worn AC belt idler pulley may cause belt to come off

  A worn AC belt idler pulley may cause the AC belt to roll over in the pulleys or come off completely.

• 1997 Chrysler Concorde Spark plugs may cause misfires/popping sounds during acceleration

  When the car is accelerating, spark plug cables may cause intermittent misfires and popping sounds from the engine compartment.

• 1997 Chrysler Concorde AC Inoperative Due to Fauty Pressure Transducer or BCM

  Faulty pressure transducers (sensors) or the evaporator temperature sensor may cause the AC to stop functioning. The body control module (BCM) may lock up and create similar symptoms. Disconnect the battery for five seconds before resetting the BCM.

• 1997 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.
