Awesome
When I first bought the car, the front right headlight had condensation. Dealer quickly found a clogged drainage hole in the headlight, and fixed it.
Also, the trunk did not open with a key. Dealer also found dried grease, and took apart the lock and cleaned it. Works like new.
I absolutely love this car. It certainly isn't a Viper, but this car gets up and goes when I need it to. The leather interior is very comfortable, and the power features (Locks, windows, sunroof, and seat) are very convenient, and handily located.
Also, the premium stock sound system in the car is great. I was planning on putting an aftermarket sound system in, but have decided to leave as is.

A nice, decent, inexpensive vehicle
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.
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.

A new trans at only 55000 miles??? How can a company make a business out of building a tranny that only lasts 50,000 miles, unless you live and drive in San Francisco or New York City, maybe?
55000 miles!!
I also drive a 2000 Dodge Stratus. It has nearly 100,000 miles on it and I have had NO problems with it. This car has taken me from Oklahoma to California and back again several times. NO PROBLEMS! I LOVE MY CAR. the only reason I'm even considering getting rid of it is because I am having another child and cannot fit 3 kids comfortably in the back seat! Dodge Durango Here I Come!!!
Buy one today!
My ex-wife wrecked it twice. A lot of body damage was done. She also did no routine maintenance.
I took the wrecked car back and put it back into shape.
I have never experienced a problem.
The engine looks and runs brand new.
It cold starts in the West Virginia winter with NO problems.
It handles like a charm.
I have no problem with this car.
I will always keep a Dodge in my driveway!
It looks good and drives very good (nothing is excellent)!

Overall, it's a nice looking car that performs better than expected, and is very reliable
I have had NO (zero) problems with this car in four years. The only parts I've replaced are normal wear items, such as brakes, wipers, tires, fluids and filters.
Though the car has a somewhat dated appearance since the model was updated in 2001, I find it is still a very attractive automobile.
Performance and handling is better than you would expect for a 4 cylinder "family sedan" type of car.
Older versions (1995-99) have problems with head gaskets. This seems to have finally been corrected in the 2000 model year.
All versions with the automatic transmission will have problems if you don't use the correct transmission fluid. It is MANDATORY to use the correct fluid in these transmissions.
