Used 2000 Dodge Stratus Consumer Reviews
More Auto-Stick Please
Bought my ES with 25K miles, now has 71K miles. Won't blow hot air at all now, dealer say's $500 to tear out dash and get to heater box. Blows cold fine, at all settings, too bad it's January....am gonna trade it in for an Intrepid as I can't find a newer Stratus with Auto- Stick......where are they, I want a used one. I like my Stratus but don't want to put a $1000 into it(needs brakes now too as I put off getting pads replaced)
Very Nice and Fun to Drive
The driving experince in this Stratus was fun. I know when I get in this car I would really enjoying crusing in this car. It is such a pleasure passing by car doing 70 without an effort. The performance overall has really satisfied me. I am in college right now and I am young in need for speed. I have put some money in this car and it never cease to amaze me.
Cheap but unreliable sedan
The v6 picks up adequately but guzzles gas. Brake pads have to be changed with absurd frequency. The build quality is fairly poor; something which is evidenced by continual small/mid ticket repairs that need to be performed on a bi monthly basis. The cup holders are awful. The rear windows is perched far to high on the back end, which means rear visibility is limited. The back seat does fold down though, which provides lots of room when you need to move something.
Pretty good car for the buck!
I've had my Stratus for a year now and I have gotten fairly good service from it during this time. I bought it with 12,000 miles and now have 45,000 on it. Only a few minor problems with it which the dealership took car of after a few visits.

THE BEST FUEL ECONOMY CAR AND FUN TO DRIVE.
