"My friend has a 2006 Dodge Stratus, and the dealer where it was purchased got into trouble for fraud and money laundering, and now the warranty is up in the air."

The warranty is from Chrysler corporation, not the dealer. Any Chrysler dealer HAS to honor the warranty. I had this issue myself with a Dodge (the dealer refused to honor the warranty) and I took it to a local Chrysler/Plymouth dealership and they took care of it without a hassle. I have found, however, that in our area Chrysler tends to deny warranty service a lot. The two brands in this area that are notorious for poor customer service are Chrysler and Toyota.

I am skeptical of the warranty conditions. My friend has a 2006 Dodge Stratus, and the dealer where it was purchased got into trouble for fraud and money laundering, and now the warranty is up in the air."

Not true. Even if the dealer is bankrupt, the factory warranty is good at any other Chrysler dealer. If you mean that a used car dealer gave him a warranty, then that is nothing to do with the manufacturer's warranty.
