2001 DODGE STRATUS SE HAS ISSUES WITH THE REAR STRUT MOUNT. CONSUMER STATES THAT THERE IS A BACK ORDER ON THE UPPER STRUT MOUNTS. *NJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE BLOWER RESISTOR STOPPED WORKING AND TWO DAYS LATER, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. THE CONSUMER HAD TO PURCHASE A FUEL PUMP. THE CONSUMER THEN STARTED TO HEAR A KNOCKING NOISE IN THE STEERING. THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THE KNOCKING NOISE WAS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE STEERING COLUMN WAS TOO LARGE FOR THE COMPONENTS. THE THERMOSTAT BROKE INTO PIECES AND THE TRANSMISSION STOPPED SHIFTING GEARS. *JB
DRIVER WOULD HEAR A RATTLING NOISE CONTINUOUSLY WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL IN EITHER DIRECTION,LEFT/RIGHT. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING AT 10 MPH, THE RATTLING NOISE MADE A LOUD SNAP AS IF SOMETHING INSIDE THE COLUMN WAS BROKEN. HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE PERFORMANCE HAS NOT BEEN EFFECTED. ALSO, THE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS COME ON AND THE HORN AND THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ALSO INOPERATIVE. PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS. *NM
WHEN TURNING STEERING WHEEL TO THE LEFT A POPPING SOUND WAS PRODUCED.*AK
I PURCHASED A USED 2001 DODGE STRATUS IN FEBRUARY 2003. THE CAR HAD A TOTAL OF 48702 MILES. WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK, THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER FOR BRAKE PROBLEMS. THE FRONT BRAKES WAS MISSING SOME TYPE OF BRAKES CLIPS. THIS WAS REPAIRED BY THE DEALERSHIP. THEIR WAS ALSO A NOISE FROM THE STEERING COLUMN. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THEIR WAS NO PROBLEM LOCATED AND THAT IT WAS JUST THE TIRES RUBBING THE PAVEMENT WHEN TURNING. WITHIN 85 DAYS, THE CAR LOST SPEED WHILE DRIVING AND WOULD NOT MOVE. IT TOOK ONE HOUR TO COAST 2.5 MILES TO HOME. I LATER HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY CALLED THE NEXT DAY TO TELL US THAT WE NEED A COMPLETE OVERHAUL OF THE TRANSMISSION AND NEEDED TO REPLACE THE PUMP AND CONVERTER. A COST OF $2000. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH ANY OTHER BRAND...
