your cabin filter might be dirty
I had a 96 Stratus that would do that, and it turned out to be that the starter was bad.
overheating or drawing too much power
some of them do. the v6 in an avenger would be a 2.5.
the avenger
A loose wire would cause the horn to stop working on your Dodge Avenger 2.4L engine.
I received these error codes for my 1998 Dodge Avenger, 6cyl. 2.5 What does these codes mean? Where would I start to fix these issues? ~THANK YOU ~ P0108 P1297 P0401
The dealership would be a good place to start.
A broken spring retainer in the shifter.
Could be the alternator has failed.
It is probably a linkage problem
When a fuse blows there is a current draw caused by a short circut. I would check all my wires to and from the starter. More than likely there is a worn wire which is touching something metal and creating the ground.
A 1999 Dodge Avenger would be the same.
