2003 DODGE STRATUS COUPE Structure Problems

SAME DASH WARPING PROBLEM AS MANY OTHERS HAVE POSTED. NOT HOLDING MY BREATH FOR A REPLACEMENT THOUGH. *TR

I OWN A 2003 DODGE STRATUS COUPE IN WHICH THE DASHBOARD IS WARPING AND COMING A LOOSE. I PURCHASED THIS CAR USED IN 2008 IN GREAT CONDITION, HOWEVER AFTER OWNING IT FOR A FEW MONTHS THE DASHBOARD STARTED PULLING AWAY FROM THE SPEEDOMETER, THE AIR CONDITION VENTS AND OTHER PLACES ON THE BOARD. JUST RECENTLY, I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO SPREAD AND NOW THE GLOVE DEPARTMENT HAS STARTED UNHINGE ITSELF. THIS HAS BECOME VERY UNSETTLING BECAUSE I AM AFRAID THAT THE AIRBAG WHICH IS ONLY A FEW INCHES ABOVE THE GLOVE DEPARTMENT WILL EVENTUALLY DEPLOY. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS MATTER THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND OUT THAT SEVERAL OWNERS OF CAR ARE FACING THE SAME PROBLEM. NOT MENTION, I HAVE ALSO DISCOVERED THAT A WHITE FILM APPEARS ON THE INTERIOR OF THE WINDOW ABOVE THE DASH WHICH CAUSES A GLARE AND...

I OWN A 2003 DODGE STRATUS COUPE(ENGINEERED BY MITSUBISHI) AND MY CLEAR COAT HAS STARTED TO FADE LEAVING WHITE SPOTS ON THE TOP OF MY CAR RIGHT BEHIND THE SUNROOF. IT HAS ALSO STARTED TO FADE ON THE TRUNK OF MY VEHICLE AS WELL. THIS ISSUE ONLY SEEMS TO BA HAPPENING TO THE CARS MANUFACTURED WITH BLACK PAINT. OTHER CARS I HAVE SEEN WITH THIS PROBLEM ALSO MANUFACTURED BY MITSUBISHI ARE 1995-2000 CHRYSLER SEBRING COUPE, DODGE AVENGER COUPE, MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE, MITSUBISHI GALANT. ALSO, 2001-2005 DODGE STRATUS COUPE, CHRYSLER SEBRING COUPE, MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE AND GALANT. THE CONDITION WORSENS OVER TIME AND EVENTUALLY START TO GO DOWN THE A,B AND C PILLAR AND HOOD OF THE CAR. AGAIN THIS IS ONLY WITH THE BLACK PAINT. THIS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE BLACK PAINT ON THESE CARS AND AS THE OWNER OF ONE I WOULD LIKE SOMETHING DONE ABOUT IT. *TR

DASH VINYL IS SEPARATING OR PEELING OFF AT THE DEFROST VENT FROM THE DASH. NO KNOWN WAY TO FIX IT. WILL NEED REPLACED WITH A BETTER DESIGN. *TR

THE DASHBOARD MATERIAL IS UNSTABLE. NEAR THE WINDSHIELD DEFROST VENTS IT HAS STARTED TO BEND UPWARDS ALONG THE VENTS EDGES. THE PASSENGER VENT, NEXT TO THE AIRBAG, HAS ALSO POPPED OUT A LITTLE DUE TO STRESS FROM THE DASHBOARDS. *TR

THE DASH BOARD HAS WARPED AND PIECES ARE FALLING INSIDE THE DASH. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2003 STRATUS NEW. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE THE PAINT STARTED FLAKING OFF THE TOP. THE DEALERSHIP REPAINTED THE TOP WITHOUT COMPLAINT. THE SHOP MANAGER SAID THEY HAD ALOT OF THEM WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. 500 MILES AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED THE ENTIRE CAR STARTED TO LOOSE THE PAINT. I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE CAR AND AFTER BEING PUT OFF FOR FIVE WEEKS WAS TOLD THE DISTRICT MANAGER SAID TO BAD THEY WERE NOT GOING TO FIX THE CAR. I TOOK THE CAR TO TWO DIFFERENT BODY SHOPS, AND BOTH ADVISED THE PRIMER WAS BAD AND THEY HAD SEEN ALOT OF THE 2003 DODGES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

I BOUGHT MY 2003 DODGE STRATUS R/T ON JUNE 9, 2006. AFTER HAVING IT ABOUT TWO WEEKS THE DASH PAD STARTED TO COME UNDONE FROM THE DASH. *TR
