I have a 98 town and country lxi. A few weeks ago I had to have it towed because the battery drained so bad that it would not be jumped. It was making a clicking sound when I tried to crank it. The battery had to be charged and lo and behold cranked right up. NOw it is doing the same thing. Do you lthink the battery is just bad considering it has not be changed in several years. I had auto zone check the starter and alternator and they were fine. Any input would be great I am a mother of 3 with limited finances to go have it checked. But I do not wasnt to get rid of it either.

If the alternator checked okay that leaves the battery as the problem, get it load tested then comeback.
