At 92K the 2.7L V6 timing chain failed

OK car, even though many nit picking problems, until the 2.7L V6 timing chain jumped and destroyed the engine. The cost of repair will far exceed the value of the car so time to replace it. Usually an engine with a timing chain last for the long haul but not this one. Hopefully can find a more reliable car.

It's a reliable car for it's age.

The car has a strong engine and a good battery. The paint on the body is chipping but all in all its a good car. The only reason I'm selling is because I had the opportunity to buy a car from a dealership so I'm letting this one go. It's a good car.

Great car but engine didnt last long

I loved my little car but unfortunately the engine went out and I couldn't afford to get it fixed. I would definitely recommend this car to someone that either liked to work on cars or could afford to get it fixed

Looks great, but a mechanics nightmare

Cosmetically this is one of the coolest cars I've had but at 90k miles the tranny, belts, and engine all died on me! Now after paying 4 grand 34 days ago, I have to pay an additional 2 grand if I want to keep it.

Disappointing

Bought this car new off the lot. Mine has a 125,000 miles on it. THE GOOD: drives good, good gas mileage, still looks great! THE BAD: It has electrical problems galore, I have had to replace the engine computer, after only 60,000, the air conditioning works when it feels like. OVERALL - if there were no electrical problems I would be happy with the car.

2001 dodge stratus

bought this auto used with approx. 30000 miles on it . it now has 182000 miles and the only thing I have had to do is replace a right front wheel bearing. of course now it is leaking oil at about 1 quart per 1000miles.
