1996 Dodge Stratus Stock review from North America
"If you buy cheap crap, that is what you get, cheap crap!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The bag around the stick shift somehow became uncoupled from the shifter mechanism. That is it so far!
General comments?
This car is a slug!!I have never driven a stick shift with such little pick up. It squeals really badly when you make any turns. It is really a cheap piece-of-garbage if you ask me and I haven't even had to repair it YET.
