Dear hpmctorque, Thank you so much for responding to my post. You cannot imagine how helpful your response is. First, you have provided me with direction, and I don't have to wonder what issue to tackle first. I have decided to purchase two inexpensive tires to replace the hideous front tires, and to get an oil change this week. Both rear tires look really good. ... Read More...

Written by: amoment on Nov 23, 2007 03:20 PM

Please help me to go to a shop with, at least, some idea of what a mechanic should be checking. The Stratus has 84,000 miles on it. About 18 months ago, it started to squeak. Terrible squeaking. I took it to a repair shop and either back or ... Read More...

I have a 2001 Stratus ES (2.7L) with 82,000 miles. I am religious about changing the oil every 3,000 miles. I have had the car for a year and a half with no problems at all. Just put new tires on the car this past Saturday. Sunday I put the tires to the test through a bunch of winding and hilly roads. Now when stopping, the oil pressure light comes on. It goes off when rpms ... Read More...

I have a 2001 Dodge stratus se or es coupe, and recently had the head gasket and water pump changed due to overheating.
