#443 of 452 Stratus dies in rain by mamal Sep 18, 2009 (2:15 pm)
My 18 year old son has a 1997 Dodge Stratus. The car dies on him when he drives through heavy rain or standing water. This has happened to him on the interstate at high speeds....so dangerous! He is now afraid to drive it when it is raining. Has anyone else had this problem and what can we do about it? Replies to this message: plove234 (Sep 28, 2009 4:34 pm)

Replying to: mamal (Sep 18, 2009 2:15 pm) You need to replace your distributor. I had the same issue and that fixed it.

#449 of 452 1999 Dodge Stratus continues to blow fuses? by itisme1 Oct 07, 2009 (1:19 pm)
We have a 1999 Stratus with the 2.4L DOHC that when we try and start it but it just blows out the inj., starter, and fuel fuse. My guess is that the starter motor and/or the starter motor is having issues but can there be any other problems that might be causing this?   Thanks for any help that you can give

Replying to: status2 (Aug 24, 2009 2:38 pm) For 2 years, my 2000 Dodge Stratus either wouldn't start or cut off abruptly while driving or idling. Spent over $1,000 at 2 different shops. No change. Finally went to individual with shop in his backyard....someone who really knows cars. He removed, cleaned and then tightened the wires to the PMC (power control module). Cost me $75 for his time 1 yr ago and problem hasn't returned.
#451 of 452 Tail light problems by b1234 Nov 18, 2009 (6:33 pm)
I have a 97 Dodge Stratus whose passenger tail light is acting flaky. I replaced the bulb and the tail light illuminates when the lights are on. When I press the brake, the light goes off. If the lights are off and I press the brake, the brake light illuminates, however dimmer than the driver's side. Any ideas??
#452 of 452 2005 Dodge Stratus 2.4 dies at 82K miles by 1dodgecustomer Nov 27, 2009 (10:00 am)
HEADS UP!! My 2005 Dodge Stratus 2.4 just died at 82K miles. Found out there is a way of checking codes on the cars computer without taking it to Autozone. If you have a digital odometer you can check codes by turning the ignition on and off 2 times then to the on position without bumping the engine and it will read off codes on your odometer.So in my case I had a code come up as P0340 which is the Camshaft Position Sensor.So I changed the sensor out and cleared the code from the computer by disconnecting the battery.The code returned and found out from my mechanic that the timing belt broke and caused 2 engine valves to be bent.Only $1600 in repairs.This could have been avoided if Dodge would have said to check or replace timing belt before 90K miles like it said in the service manual.
