Description of the problem | Only had my 2003 dodge stratus for a few months and having major problems now. When i first got it, everything was in good condition but i still did maintenance work on it anyways. I barely drive my car because i'm a stay at home mom so i don't really put miles on my car. Now my car is suffering problems from within the engine. I was driving one evening and my car just stopped out of nowhere. I did a little research and then went to a mechanic and pretty much my engine is suffering. They also told me that 2. 7 engines are very crappy and doesn't last long. I wish i would've knew that before i bought the car. These cars need to be recalled and made better. Now i'm out of a car. |
