DURING THE END OF SUMMER MY CAR ENGINE REPEATEDLY SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEEDS (USUALLY @20 - 40MPH). I BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE DEALER BECAUSE MY CAR REPEATEDLY SHUTS OFF WHEN I TURN CORNERS OR DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS OF 30 OR LESS IT WILL JUST SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I HAVE MY 3 CHILDREN IN THE CAR WITH ME MOST OF THE TIME AND WE HAVE FACED MANY CLOSE ACCIDENTS! ONCE THE CAR'S RPM SHUTS DOWN THE CAR SHUTS OFF NO MATTER WHERE I AM. WHEN I DRIVE 50MPH OR MORE MY CAR JERKS. MY CAR ALSO ACCELERATES WHILE DRIVE 40MPH OR LESS ON ITS OWN IN SEVERAL INSTANCES I ALMOST HIT CARS IN FRONT OF ME DURING RED LIGHTS. MY ABS LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHY IT WAS ON AND THAT IT WOULD COST $70.00 AN HOUR FOR A COMPUTERIZED CHECKUP WHICH I CAN NOT AFFORD. ANOTHER TIME I BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE DEALER FOR THE ENGINE SHUTOFF PROBLEM THEY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM AND ASSUMED THE THROTTLE BOTTLE WAS THE CAUSE. WESTMINISTER DODGE CLEANED THE THROTTLE BOTTLE AND MY CAR STILL CONTINUES TO SHUTOFF SINCE SUMMER OF 2001. MY AIR BRAKE FAILED ME IN 9/2001, I ENDED UP UNABLE TO STOP MY CAR FROM KNOCKING OFF A WHEEL COVER OF A MITSUBISHI 4 DOOR. MY CAR SHUTOFF WHEN I TRIED TO STOP THE CAR TO AVOID HITTING THE MITSUBISHI AND MY FRONT END OF MY CAR (LICENSE PLATE NOSE) TOOK OFF HER WHEELCOVER IN WHICH I OFFERED TO REPLACE FOR $40.00. I AM VERY AFRAID OF WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT SINCE THE DEALER CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. MY

I OWN TWO DODGE STRATUS. ONE TRANSMISSION JUST FAILED. THE TRANSMISSION SHOP DAID IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION LINES TO THE RADIATOR HAD LOOSENED UP. THE CAR HAD BEEN INVOLVED IN A MINOR ACCIDENT. NOW MY OTHER STRATUS HAS DEVELOPED A TRANSMISSION LEAK. SAME PROBLEM!! I HAVE TO BELIEVE THERE IS A MANUFACTER DEFECT!!*AK

SINCE THE PURCHASE OF THIS VEHICLE IT HAS BEEN IN THE REPAIR SHOP 9 TIMES. SEVERAL OF THESE REPAIRS HAVE BEEN REPEAT REPAIRS. THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION STARTED GIVING US PROBLEMS ON 10/18/1999. IT TOOK THEM UNTIL 08/28/2001 TO REPAIR IT. THEN WE HAD TO BRING IT BACK ON 10/22/2001 BECAUSE A SEAL WAS LEAKING ON THE TRANSMISSION. AT THAT TIME I HAD THEM LISTEN TO THE CAR, BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION WAS MAKING THE SAME NOISE IT STARTED WITH IN 10/1999. THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING, WHICH IS WHAT THEY TOLD US UP UNTIL 08/28/2001. NOW THIS CAR IS GETTING READY TO GO BACK TO THE SHOP FOR THE TRANSMISSION. IN THE 3 YEARS WE HAVE OWNED THIS CAR IT HAS HAD $5201.48 WORHT OF REPAIRS DONE TO IT. IN ADDITION TO THE DEFECTIVE PARTS I HAVE LISTED, IT ALSO HAD AN IGNITION COIL, INJECTORS, BALL JOINTS, AND TIE ROD ENDS REPLACED. ALL REPAIRS WE DONE BY MIDDLETOWN DODGE, RT 17M, MIDDLETOWN, NY, EXCEPT THE FIRST REPAIR. THAT WAS PERFORMED BY THE DEALER. FORTUNATELY WE HAVE A GREAT EXTENDED WARANTY. OTHERWISE WE WOULD HAVE HAD TO PAY FOR ALL THESE REPAIRS OURSELVES. WE ARE CONCERNED THAT THIS CAR WILL CONTINUE TO BREAKDOWN AND WE WON'T BE ABLE TO AFFORD TO KEEP IT OR SOMEONE WILL BE INJURED.*AK

FAILURE COMPARABLE TO RECALL DATED 1/22/96, NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID #96V006000. PER DAIMLER CHRYSLER, MY VEHICLE'S VIN DOES NOT APPLY TO THIS RECALL. I BELIEVE THAT MY CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN PART OF THIS RECALL AS IT IS SAME MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR AS VEHICLES UNDER THIS RECALL. WHAT CAN I DO?*AK

THERE WAS AN OIL LEAK. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER, AND THEY STATED THAT ENGINE CYLINDER HEAD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. RECALL 96 V 006 000 ON ENGINE DID NOT INCLUDE THIS VEHICLE DUE TO VIN ALTHOUGH IT DEALT WITH SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION. *AK

VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN DRIVEWAY NOTICED A LARGE PUDDLE OF OIL ON GROUND. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALER. INFORMED BY MECHANIC THAT ENGINE CYLINDER HEAD WAS LEAKING. GALLEY PLUG FAILED TO SEAL PROPERLY. HAD ENGINE HEAD GALLEY PLUG REPAIRED.*AK

DEFECTIVE HEAD GASKET. *AK

TWO COMPLAINTS: FIRST - NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE # 671 ISSUED ON 4/1996 OF WHICH THIS VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED (BUILT THROUGH 10/13/1995) THIS CAR WAS BUILT ON 10/13/1995. AT STATE INSPECTION THIS PAST MARCH NOTICED IT WAS STARTING TO LEAK OIL AND NOW IS LEAKING ABOUT 2 TO 3 QTS A WEEK (10/6/2001).WENT TO DEALER & ASKED ABOUT RECALL THEY CONTACTED CRYSLER AND WERE TOLD TO CHECK IF GALLEY PLUGS WERE THE CAUSE. DEALER CHECKED AND SAID THE HEAD GASKET WAS LEAKING BADLY. CONTACTED CHRYSLER TODAY AND SAID THEY WILL GET BACK TO ME. WENT TO YOUR CONSUMER COMPLAINTS LISTING AND FOUND THAT OF 287 COMPLAINTS FILED UNDER THE ENGINE CATAGORY 217 OR 76% WERE FOR OIL LEAKS OR HEAD GASKET BLOWN! UNDER ENGINE GASKET COVERS 124 RECORDS ALL 100% WERE FOR OIL LEAKS. SAFETY HAZARD OF FIRE IS QUITE POSSIBLE WHY ISN'T THE MANUFACTURER REQUIRED TO DO A RECALL? FROM WHAT I HAVE HEARD THIS IS QUITE A PROBLEM WITH ALL STATUS'S THROUGH MODEL YEAR 2000. THANK YOU. *AK

VEHICLE WAS LEAKING OIL. HAD TAKEN VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, AND THE DEALER STATED THAT HEAD GASKET WAS DEFECTIVE. BUT THEY WERE UNWILLING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.*AK

WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 10 TO 15 MPH APPLIED PRESSURE TO BRAKE PEDAL IN AN EFFORT TO SLOW VEHICLE, AND BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED TO SLOW VEHICLE DOWN, RESULTING IN A CRASH, WHERE IT REAR-ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO POLICE REPORT OR INJURIES. DEALERSHIP HAS NOT MADE A DETERMINATION FOR CAUSE OF PROBLEM, AND INFORMED CONSUMER THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT AFFECTED BY ANY RECALL. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION / ATTACHMENTS. *AK

WHILE PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT CONSUMER HAD DIFFICULTY CONTROLING VEHICLE. A PRIVATE MECHANIC AT A TIRE SHOP EXAMINED VEHICLE, AND DETERMINED THAT LEFT FRONT TIE ROD BROKE IN HALF. PART IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION / ATTACHMENTS. *AK

RECALL 96 V 006 000/ENGINE: UNABLE TO GET DEALER; SAHARA MOTORS; DELTA, UT; PHONE # 435-864-7756 TO HONOR RECALL; SEEKING HELP FROM NHTSA IN THIS MATTER. *AK VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE DEALER FOR 3 MONTHS DUE TO PROBLEMS WITH THE PARTS. *JB

BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN GEAR THE FRONT LEFT TIE-ROD END BROKE. THE CAR IS SERVICED & MAINTAINED THROUGH DODGE. IT ONLY HAD 43,875 MILES ON IT. NO GREASE FITTINGS ON THESE TIE-ROD ENDS, SO THEY CANNOT BE SERVICED. THE DEALER CLAIMS THIS IS A LIFETIME PART THAT NEEDS NO SERVICING. I TOOK AN EXTENEDED WARRANTY WHICH EXPIRED 3 MONTHS PREVIOUS TO THE INCIDENT. DUE TO TIME NOT MILAGE. THIS VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND HAS LOW MILES FOR YEAR. DODGE SAID THEY WOULD PAY HALF THE BILL BUT I THINK THE WHOLE BILL SHOULD BE PAID (TOW, RENTAL, & RIM) COULD SOMEONE PLEASE ADVISE ME ON THIS SITUATION.

WHILE DRIVING AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WILL INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATE, INDICATING A MALFUNCTION WITHIN THE SYSTEM, CAUSE UNKNOWN. PLEASE GIVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS.*AK

WHILE DRIVING, MY CAR STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY ROAD. THE TIMING BELT HAD BROKEN N.IT TOOK THE DEALER 3 WEEKS TO FIX IT. WITH THE HEAD GASKET, I BROUGHT THE CAR TO A SERVICE STATION 3 SEPARATE TIMES TO FIND OUT WHY IT WAS RUNNING HOT, BEFORE THE PROBLEM WAS DISCOVERED. THIS HAPPENED ONLY WHEN THE CAR LEAKED OUT ALL OF THE ANTIFREEZE. I HAVE ALSO REPLACED THE FRONT BRAKES 4 TIMES AND THE REAR BRAKES 3 TIMES IN THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE NEVER HAD TO DO THIS WITH ANY OTHER CAR THAT I HAVE OWNED. *AK

AS OF NOW, WE HAVE HAD TO REPLACE ALL FOUR WHEEL BEARINGS. BOTH FRONT BEARINGS WERE REPLACED AT APPROX. 51,000 MILES; THE RIGHT REAR BEARING WAS REPLACED AT 64,200 MILES; THE LEFT REAR BEARING WAS JUST REPLACED AT APPROX. 67,800 MILES. TODAY, WE BROUGHT THE CAR BACK IN TO THE DEALER WITH WHAT WE SUSPECT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE RIGHT REAR BEARING AGAIN. IT IS UNUSUAL FOR A CAR TO NEED ONE WHEEL BEARING REPLACED, NEVER MIND ALL FOUR. WE FEEL THAT THESE REPEATED PROBLEMS ARE DUE TO A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND THAT AS SUCH, THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE PARTS. ANY INFO AND/OR HELP YOU CAN GIVE US WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.*AK

IN OCT 1999, HEAD GASKET WAS REPLACED AT 35900 MILES. WENT BACK 2 WEEKS LATER COMPLAINING OF OIL STILL LEAKING ON MY DRIVEWAY. THEY TIGHTENED ONE VALVE COVER BOLT WHICH WAS LOOSE. IN FEBRUARY, 2000, WITH 39500 MILES, COMPLAINING THAT THE VEHICLE STILL HAS AN OIL LEAK. THEY USED AN ENGINE DYE TO TRY TO DETECT SOURCE OF LEAK. THEY TEST DROVE THE CAR, LET IT RUN FOR A FEW HOURS, AND COULD NOT DETECT ANY LEAKS. SO I LIVED WITH SLIGHT OIL LEAKS, WHICH RECENTLY GOT WORSE, BUT DID NOT NOTICE IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE MY DRIVEWAY IS LOADED WITH SPOTS. WHILE DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY, THE HEAD GASKET BLEW. CONSTRUCTION BARRIERS WERE LINED UP ALONGSIDE THE EXPRESSWAY. IT WAS DIFFICULT TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE BECAUSE OF THESE BARRIERS. THIS PRESENTED A REAL HAZARD. I FEEL IT IS IMPORTANT FOR A RECALL OF DODGE STRATUS 1995-1998 HEAD GASKETS TO BE IMPLEMENTED. (AS WELL AS OTHER MODELS WHICH USE THIS SAME TYPE OF HEAD GASKET.) HEAD GASKETS SHOULD BE GOOD FOR AT LEAST THE TYPICAL LIFE OF A CAR. THAT IS A VERY COSTLY ITEM. IT ALREADY HAS HAPPENED TWICE, AND I ONLY HAVE 50000 MILES ON MY CAR. I KNOW I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER DODGE IN MY LIFETIME. MY DEALER HAS GIVEN ME HORRIBLE SERVICE ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. IT WAS NEVER A PLEASURE TO GET MY CAR SERVICED. *AK

HEAD GASKET HAS FAILED TWICE: ONCE AT 43000 MILES AND AGAIN AT 94000 MILES. *AK

THE CAR DOES NOT ALWAYS START RIGHT AWAY. ALL THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS COME ON.THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. THE DEALERSHIP HAS YET TO FIX PROBLEM, AND DO NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSES IT TO CUT OFF. THEY CLAIM NO RESPONSIBILITY IF ANYTHING HAPPENS WHILE I'M DRIVING THE CAR.

I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT DODGE WAS RECALLING AND PAYING FOR THE REPAIR FOR A WHILE BUT STOPPED. THIS CAR STARTED LEAKING A VERY SMALL AMOUNT OF OIL BEFORE THE WARRENTY WENT OUT BUT I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS VERY SERIOUS AT THE TIME SO I DID NOTHING.
