Stratus 2.4L
WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR IT WAS MAKING A SOUND THAT EVERYONE INSISTED WAS THE ALTERNATOR, SO I BOUGHT A USED ONE, BUT WHEN THE SOUND WAS STILL THERE, I THOUGHT TO BUY A NEW ONE, ABOUT SIX MONTHS LATER, THE NEW ALTERNATOR WENT OUT. GOOD THING I HAD A LIFETIME WARRANTY FROM AUTOZONE. I HATE THIS CAR. NEVER GET A STRATUS, EVER.
