2000 Dodge Stratus SE review from North America
"A nice, decent, inexpensive vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Most recent, the transmission needed to be replaced at 55,000 miles.
O2 sensor went bad at 50,000 miles.
Luckily both problems where covered under the extended warranty that I bought through Chrysler.
General comments?
I love my Stratus. I was a little disappointed when the transmission went bad so early, although from what I understand it's a somewhat common problem.
The car handles great in all driving conditions.
If I treat it right, I can get 32MPG doing 75MPH on the highway, with the air on.
