Stratus SXT 2.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 83,600 miles

Gee how do I start this, I am so pissed off, I hate the Dodge Stratus, its no wonder Dodge is stopping production on them. Im the first proud owner of my 2002 Dodge Stratus SXT. I have had lots of problems with it most minor fixes that was covered on the warranties, but luck ran out on me yesterday, My transmission started to slip. I could see the RPMS serging and I noticed that I was loosing speed. I pulled over and there was a horrible grinding noise coming from the transmission. Needless to say when i put back in gear you could feel it slipping before hitting the gear to move. I am so glad I carry towing on my insurance and I had a cell phone to get towed.I was in the middle of no where. Some other issues are the blower fan for the a/c has been replaced twice, not to mention replaced the fuel pump a yr ago. Its time Dodge started to find a solution to their Transmission problems with several of thir automobiles.

Stratus SE 2.7L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 87,000 miles

lets see, I brought a 2002 dodge stratus from a used car dealership. 5 mins later I take it back because everytime I'd hit around 20-30mph it would jump. I've had it fixed and still have the same problem here and there. Sometimes it can be very tight to drive also. Since I've had it I've kept good maintenance on the "Hoopty" (oil changes every other month, Tune up repairing minor problems. So far I've put almost $3000 in it and I can't trade it in. The worse part about it is that my brother owns a 2003 Stratus R/T and it has the same problems. I think Chrysler needs to do something with the cars they make because they are real sh*tty. STAY AWAY FROM CHRYSLER AND DODGES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
