Since this was brought back up, Stratus's power steering pulley shattered when almost home one day in May or June, so I cut the belt off and drained most of the oil out of the rack.

Since then my 15 yo girl is happily driving it her 4 miles to school and back getting 33 mpg(last 3 tanks at 5 over epa hwy) is coasting into corners and doing quite well. She mentioned to me one day that some one tailgatted her most of the way home, only to find out a few days later that it was one of her teacher/coachs's remarked that she was driving 53 mph on the hwy on the way home, almost exactly 55 via speedo cause tires are one size under.
