This has been a constant problem with the Dodge Stratus 2.4L engine and Chrysler refuses to put out a recall notice. I spoke with our local Dodge mechanic and he said they are repairing this problem on a regular basis. I then spoke to three other repair shops in the area and all said this has been an ongoing problem with the 2.4L engines on the Stratus with first the oil leak and then the engine seizing up.

I called Dodge Corporation and nothing can be done as no recalls have been made to date.
