1999 Dodge Stratus Sedan review from North America
"A fun little car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had the brakes and rotors replaced on a yearly basis. At 75k I had to have the head gasket and manifold replaced because It was leaking oil. Today, at 81k, I had the ignition coil replaced, and throttle body cleaned. The cup holders are awful, the front holders are used for loose change because they will not hold drinks. My seats also tend to collect a lot of lint.
General comments?
Besides the recent repairs, this car has been a great car. I put a lot of miles on all of my cars, and so far this one has been the best one I have ever owned. This car handles curves very well, and is a good comfortable ride.
