1996 Dodge Stratus review from North America
"A waste of my money!!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1 month, transmission cover leak. After the 3rd time in, a gasket was finally used -- HELLO!!!!
60,000 miles - control module went out - no heat direction, no air conditioning.
30,000 miles - power window broke.
65,000 miles - driver's outer tie rod broke ($400.00).
65,000 miles - master cylinder broke $310.00 (made from aluminum now $$$$$$).
40000miles - rear axle bearing, nuff said!
General comments?
Chrysler products are junk!!! Cheaply made, expensive to maintain!!! Sorry America, buying foreign again. I gave you a try, and you still make garbage cars!!!!
