DODGE STRATUS 2005 car safety problem was reported on May 14, 2007.DODGE STRATUS 2005, manufactured by DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM:FAN . i had my dodge stratus (which has 37053 miles) have a radiator fan go bad for the second time in approximately 2-3 months. i replaced the radiator fan the first time due to the fact that it took me 5 minutes to do and was an easy fix (approximately february/march timeframe). on monday, may 14, 2007, i was driving my vehicle home from northern wisconsin when my temp gauge skyrocketed to the top of the gauge. after pulling over at a safe location (was in a construction zone) and having the dealer tow the car to the lot, i came to find out that my engine was now bad due to overheating and loss of coolant. the radiator fan had failed the exact same way as it had before and this time caused severe damage to my vehicle. my radiator fan was no longer under warranty so i had replaced it myself back in february/march. all-in-all chrysler says they will not cover anything under warranty (engine and drivetime under warranty until 70000 miles) because the fan i had installed failed and caused the damage. i firmly believe that it is due to a lack of quality in the part, thus causing failure and termination of my vehicle. i'd like to get this resolved but dont know where to turn for help. i have pictures of the fan's failure the first time after removing it from the vehicle..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 37053 miles.

Dodge Stratus 2005 Power Train Manual Transmission

Dodge Stratus 2005 Power Train Manual Transmission Review #10227509

DODGE STRATUS 2005 car safety problem was reported on Mar 15, 2008.DODGE STRATUS 2005, manufactured by DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION had a problem with POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION . this issue has happened to my 2005 dodge stratus 3 times, already. i have a manual transmission and approximately, every 22,000 to 24,000 miles my clutch wears out. the warranty on the part of course only lasts 12,000 miles. the first time it cost me over $1,600 for parts and labor just to have the clutch replaced at the dealer. for the second time, i took it to a local shop and got the cost down to about $1,100. the third and most recent time occurred in march of 2008. once again the clutch stopped locking gears into place, rendering the vehicle completely undrivable. this time i ordered a part myself and had a friend install it for me. the part i ordered has a lifetime warranty, so needless to say, i feel a little more confident this time. my point here, is the standard clutch used by dodge is obviously a sub-standard part, not worthy of installation into any vehicle. one's clutch should not go out 3 times in as many years. i bought my car brand new just over 3 years ago now and it does not yet have 75,000 miles on it. i do not drive it poorly and grind the clutch. i should not be on my fourth clutch in the vehicle. if you happen to have a manual transmission in any dodge and are reading this complaint, i would recommend extreme caution and if you do end up having a problem, absolutely do not take it to the dealer. you'll just end up spending $1,000 or more a year from there on. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 22000 miles.

DODGE STRATUS 2005 car safety problem was reported on Jan 26, 2007.DODGE STRATUS 2005, manufactured by CHRYSLER LLC had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . i believe that this issue has great potential for a fatality. the problem that dodge/chrysler has is in the 2.4l engines manufactured from 2005 to present. the crankshaft moves inside the engine (endplay) and pushes the front main seal to come out. this spills the entire contents of oil onto the road and covers the bottom of the car. when i had the car towed the shop said it was surprising that the car did not crash fire. dodge refuses to fix the car, because they say it is no longer under warranty. this is a safety issue and dodge should be forced to issue a recall. *tr.Mileage was 62015 miles.
