Okay, now I bought a used 2004 Dodge Stratus two weeks ago, and yesterday when I got into my car and turned the key, the check engine light came on, so i went by Discount Auto and got a diagnostic on it, and it comes up P0441 - EVAP Emmission, Control System, Purge Flow Vault. Can someone tell me what that is and also, other than taking it to the dealership what I can do to get this taken care of to get it straightened out and have the check engine light turn off?? I would really appreciate it ... If it does require going to the dealership, what should I ask them, and kind of estimate of what it will cost to get straightened out??? THanks alot...

SOMETIMES a parts store will look the other way and let you play with the scanner to clear the code. some codes can't be cleared by discon the batt for 1/2 hr. just look at what the part store does to check the code. check the gas cap to make sure it IS tight, the seal isn't bad and you do not have any cracked or broken rubber hoses going to/from the motor (it has quite a few). good luck.
