ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
VERY FORTUNATE THIS HAPPENED AS WE WERE PULLING INTO THE GARAGE. SUDDENLY SOUNDED LIKE SOMEONE UNDER THE HOOD HITTING THE ENGINE BLOCK WITH A HAMMER. NOW HAVE TO HAVE A RE-MANUFACTURED ENGINE INSTALLED ON A CAR WITH ONLY 65K MILES. CANT AFFORD NOT TO, CANT SCRAP THE VEHICLE WITH THIS LOW OF MILES. RIDICULOUS AFTER WHAT ALL I HAVE READ ABOUT THE 2.7L ENGINE SINCE THEN. I PERSONALLY CHANGED OIL WELL UNDER MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDATIONS, USING SYNTHETIC MOST OF ITS LIFE. *TR

COMMUNICATIONS:HORN ASSEMBLY
2004 DODGE STRATUS WITH REAR END PROBLEMS. CONSUMER HAD THE RESONATOR REPLACED, AND THEN WAS TOLD THE REAR STRUTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. WHEN HER DAD WAS REPLACING THE STRUTS THEY BROKE INTO PIECES BECAUSE OF ALL OF THE CORROSION. *KB THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN SHE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, THERE WAS A MINOR PROBLEM WITH THE HORN. THE CONSUMER STATED SHE THINKS THERE MAY BE A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. AS THE VEHICLE CHANGES GEARS, IT WILL NOT CHANGE SMOOTHLY AND ENDS UP JERKING BACK AND FORTH AS SHE TRIES TO INCREASE SPEED. THE CONSUMER STATED THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT, IS TO TAKE HER FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND THEN ACCELERATE THROUGH TO THE NEXT GEAR *TR
