WE HAVE HAD OUR 1995 DODGE STRATUS AT SERRAMONTE AUTO PLAZA'S DODGE SERVICE FOR OVER 7 WEEKS NOW. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR DYING OUT. IT DIES AT ANY TIME AND UNDER NO SPECIFIC CONDITION. WHEN IT DIES, AS IF ALL POWER FAILS, WHICH IT DOES EVENTUALLY, AND IS OUT OF GAS. THERE HAS BEEN A TOTAL OF 2 SERVICE PROVIDES AND NOW A THIRD TO FIGURE THIS PROBLEM OUT.
