Up for sale is my 2005 Dodge Stratus R/T. First let me say that this vehicle is for sale locally as well so I reserve the right to end the auction early as long as the reserve has not been met. Next, I encourage any serious buyers to come see the vehicle in person, take a test drive, etc. The car has no major dents or scratches, the only exterior flaw is the drivers side headlight cover shows some discoloration near the top edge. The seats and interior are not torn and are in excellent condition with the exception of the center dash vent which is slightly separated and lifting around the vent. This is shown in the pictures. I have been told it can be fixed by a body shop. Every option works as it should, air blows cold, etc. The tires are light on tread and have some cracking of the rubber. All hold air, but the passenger's side front leaks and needs to be filled weekly.(not sure if it is the bead or not) I am the second owner of this car and have used it as a second vehicle for my family. I now have a company car and no longer have the need for this one. The maintenance has always been kept up and I have only used synthetic oil. The battery was replaced last year. I was going to replace the tires, but I figured I would put it up with a lower reserve and let whomever bought it put the tires they want on it.(performance or touring) I am requiring a non-refundable $200.00 down payment within 24 hours of the auction conclusion and the rest in cash when you pick it up. I am not selling junk, this is a low mileage, excellent running car with a clean title in search of a new home. A note about the mileage, it may change as I am offering people the ability to test drive the car, so don't give me a hard time if it is not exactly 35,100 on the odometer when you come to get it. The gas mileage varies on how you drive, but generally I got around 25 mpg. I am selling this car as is with no warranty either expressed or implied. I have done my best to describe the vehicle but if I missed anything please contact me with your questions.

Why the Charger Hellcat can't be ordered with a manual transmission
Sun, 16 Nov 2014Fans of truly irreverent amounts of horsepower will find lots to love in the form of the 2015 Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcat models. Both of them send 707 ridiculous horsepower to the rear wheels; the only question is whether you want your absurdity delivered with two or four doors. Oh, and whether or not you want the option of a manual transmission.
If you prefer rowing your own gears, the choice is made for you; there is no manual gearbox option available on the Charger Hellcat, or any Charger model at all, for that matter. Wonder why? Well, besides the fact that almost nobody - sorry, clutch fans, but it's true - would choose to buy a Charger with a manual transmission, that is? The answer, according to an industry insider in a post written on Jalopnik's Opposite Lock forum, is the floorpan.
It's probably not a surprise to most of our readers that the Dodge Challenger and Charger share a large portion of their chassis structure, which is codenamed LX at Chrysler, but there are still some significant differences under the skin due to the shorter wheelbase and two-door coupe bodyshell of the Challenger, as opposed to the sedan shape of the Charger. One of the differences is the floorpan, the huge chunk of sheetmetal that makes up the floor of the car and props up such essential items as the car's seats.
Chrysler killing off the 200 Convertible, Dodge Avenger
Sun, 23 Feb 2014When Chrysler rolled out the first-generation 200 to replace the Sebring range in 2010, it included replacements for both the sedan and the convertible. The Sebring Coupe, however, was left out of the mix. And now that the second-generation Chrysler 200 is descending upon us, Auburn Hills is paring things down even further. But this time, it's the convertible that reportedly isn't making the cut. Shame, too, since the rendering above shows what could have been quite an attractive droptop.
As our compatriots at Edmunds point out, sales of the convertible model accounted for less than five percent of overall Chrysler 200 sales, and at those numbers, the considerable cost of engineering a new drop-top couldn't be justified. With the Toyota Camry Solara and Volkswagen Eos also gone from the market (well, the VW isn't gone quite yet), the discontinuation of the Chrysler 200 Convertible leaves the affordable convertible segment largely to the sportier likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro and smaller European offerings like the Mini Cooper and VW Beetle.
The Chrysler 200 Convertible isn't the only derivative being left behind with the new model: so too is the Dodge Avenger. That will leave a glaring hole in the Dodge lineup, with nothing to bridge the gap between the compact Dart and the larger Charger. Whether the Dodge brand has any plans to replace the Avenger with another model, not to be based on the 200, remains to be seen.
25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel
Mon, 10 Mar 2014Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.
