2002 Dodge Stratus R/T review from North America
"Car is well worth the money I payed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only problem I have had with only owning the car is the foot rest petal's top plastic mounting hardware popped out once.
General comments?
I bought the car used, but with only 10,000 miles on it. Only thing that freaks me out is Carfax says it's a 2.8L engine. Seems the VIN is off somewhere in it.
Car is very sleak and turns heads everywhere I go. With 17" rims I get better handling than expected. U-turns are a pain, but my 1993 Taurus SHO was no different.
Overall, for only owning it for a short time the car is great and has cause no reason for doubt. Next step is a better exhaust and to replace the bench seat in the back because of sloppy previous owner smoked.
