Stratus

  • Automatic transmission
  • miles
While driving down route 80 heard a loud breaking noise, car was smoking. Pulled over, went to put vehicle in park, and vehicle won't hold in park. Had vehicle towed to the dealer, and was told that the differential broke. Told that this was a common problem for this vehicle. Transmission has been repaired and is functioning, but does not "feel" the way it should.
