The Dodge Sebring/Stratus, produced from 2001 to 2002, represented a significant shift in Dodge's approach to the mid-size sedan and convertible market. This generation, internally known as the "JS" platform, marked a departure from the previous "LH" platform and embraced more rounded styling cues, a move away from the boxy designs that had defined Dodge vehicles in the past. The Sebring/Stratus offered a variety of engine options, including a robust 2.4-liter four-cylinder, a powerful 2.7-liter V6, and a unique 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that provided a spirited driving experience. The Sebring/Stratus offered both sedan and convertible body styles, catering to a wide range of preferences and needs. The convertible model, with a power-folding top, added a touch of luxury and open-air excitement. Inside, the Sebring/Stratus offered comfortable seating for five passengers, with generous legroom and headroom for both front and rear occupants. The interior design emphasized practicality and functionality, with user-friendly controls and ample storage compartments.

This generation of the Sebring/Stratus was designed to be a reliable and affordable mid-size option, offering a compelling mix of comfort, practicality, and performance. It was popular among families and individuals seeking a stylish and capable vehicle for everyday driving. However, like many vehicles of its era, the Sebring/Stratus wasn't without its challenges. Some owners reported issues with the transmission, electrical systems, and suspension components. Despite these drawbacks, the Sebring/Stratus remained a popular choice for its value proposition and overall driving experience. The 2001 to 2002 Sebring/Stratus holds a place in Dodge history as a transitional model, bridging the gap between the boxy designs of the past and the more modern and stylish vehicles that would follow. The Service Repair Manual for these models serves as an invaluable resource for owners and mechanics alike, offering detailed information on every aspect of the vehicle, from maintenance procedures to complex repair techniques.
