As far as I know, "Deck" just means your trunk is open. If it's not really open, then it's probably just a bad sensor somewhere.   -Jess

I think my '04 Stratus does the same thing that you are describing in yours. Mine only does it at about 65-75 miles an hour, and that's the only time I ever hear it. It sounds cyclical - the pitch of the whine goes up and down just a little.   I took my car into the dealership for some other problems and I mentioned the whining and how it only occurred at freeway speeds. When I picked it up, they said they didn't notice anything. I couldn't believe they didn't hear it, so I asked them if they took it on the freeway. "Nope. But we got it up to about 50 on the road right out here." Uh, hello?. I didn't have time to let them take it for another drive, but I doubt they would figure anything out anyway.   So, I don't have a solution, but I think I share your problem. Anyone have any suggestions?   -Jesse
#255 of 464 2002 Stratus Heater good only on highway by goldyca Jan 11, 2006 (2:39 pm)
My wife's car's heater only blows hot air when driving at about 45mph or higher. At idle or around town-cold air only. If the engine is warm and she comes to a stoplight, it will revert back to blowing cold air. Any thoughts? Replies to this message: tc1977 (Jan 16, 2006 11:50 am)
#256 of 464 new to the site by raven9 Jan 14, 2006 (5:04 am)
Hey everyone...I am new to this site. I have a 1996 Stratus with 150,xxx miles on it. It's not a bad little car at all. Was just wondering if anyone had a hood that is cheap and in good shape (Rust doesn't really matter as long as it's not rotted out...just needs to be straight and not smashed up) When I bought the car the lady had hit a guard rail at 20 mph and bent the hood up and rip/torn the bumper cover alittle bit other than that the car is perfect. Any help would be great.   Thanks...Raven
#257 of 464 Front end noise by tc1977 Jan 16, 2006 (7:43 am)
Replying to: posdodge (Dec 05, 2005 4:32 pm) Hello, I have a 2001 Dodge Stratus SE with 116,000 miles on it. The car has been fairly good but every now and then I am getting a noise in the front end when slowing town. It sounds like a ticking sounds that slows down as the car slows down. If any one has any information available, I would greatly appreciate it.   Thanks. Replies to this message: rdonovan (Jan 21, 2006 10:36 am)

Replying to: goldyca (Jan 11, 2006 2:39 pm) I would have the thermostat checked on it. Sounds like it is stuck or bad. Otherwise, if the car is low on coolant, that could be affecting it as well.

Replying to: tc1977 (Jan 16, 2006 7:43 am) at 116,000 that ticking noise could be your front end unversal joints. The ticking sound increases with speed and decreases as you slow down. Being the car is front wheel drive, I would recommend replacing both left and right universals if you can afford it. This would give your car a new life and stop you from worrying about the side you did not replace.   rdonovan
