The 2002 Dodge Stratus has 2 recalls, both centered on the same issue: a passenger-side sun visor that can detach and fly rearward into the cabin, raising the risk of injury to occupants.
Both recalls address this same sun visor defect, and the second specifically covers vehicles with beige interiors where a prior repair was completed using an incorrect part, meaning the original fix did not fully resolve the problem. Affected vehicles should have the visor inspected and properly repaired to ensure it stays secured.
