Dodge Avenger battery drain issue with clicking dash lights and stalling on Dodge Avenger

Problem overview

Some Dodge Avenger owners report experiencing battery drain issues, which may indicate that something is drawing current when it shouldn't be, either while the car is running or parked. Additionally, some owners notice clicking dash lights, a symptom often linked to a faulty alternator, which can also cause the battery light to illuminate. Stalling has been reported as well, particularly if the engine cranks slowly or struggles to start due to insufficient battery charge. To address these concerns, owners are advised to have the alternator checked for faults, inspect for damaged wires or corrosion on electrical connectors, and ensure that ground connections are secure. If battery drain or stalling persists, consulting a mechanic for a thorough diagnosis is recommended, as the battery warning light may indicate broader electrical system issues rather than solely a battery problem.
