Car financing: the Dodge Stratus
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no Dodge Stratus for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page helps you judge the Dodge Stratus before you buy one anywhere.
What to check on the Stratus
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
The numbers in plain words
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Practical details
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.
A longer test drive
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Try the Stratus on your commute, then decide.
Choosing the right one
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
The cost of driving it
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Make a request
Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Dodge Stratus from us first.
Ask us about the Dodge Stratus
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a Dodge Stratus for you and reply within one business day.
Buying the Dodge Stratus
Does CarmaCars sell the Dodge Stratus?
Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.
Can I rent a Dodge Stratus before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Where do the figures come from?
Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
