My car was found on road dead tonight again... I was on my way to Canada with friends, and all the sudden all power went off! No headlights, no parking lights, no radio, no tach... Only thing that still works are the interior lights, flashers, brake lights, power locks, and power mirrors... I don't know what's wrong with it. The tow truck guy (who claims to be a mechanic for 11 years) said it's probably the alarm I got that fried the PCM or something. Looks like I'm going to see what the dealer say when I have them look at it. Probably going to get rid of the car if and after they fix it!

Found On Road Dead? How insulting! At least you didn't say F***** Over Rebuilt Dodge.
The true meaning of the acronymn is First On Race Day.
Sorry it happened. Let us know what they find.

Do you have a Superchip? The chip could have came out while driving.
If it's not the chip, I would sell the car immediately, or do the 3.0 swap with electronics.
