Do you have to check transmission fluid while the engines hot on a 2003 dodge stratus?

No, you should never check transmission fluid on a hot 2003 Dodge Stratus (or any automatic transmission vehicle) engine. Automatic transmission fluid expands significantly when hot, leading to an inaccurate reading. Always check the transmission fluid level with the engine running, but only after the engine has been running for a few minutes to warm the fluid slightly and then turned off for a few minutes to allow it to settle. The owner's manual will provide the most accurate procedure for your specific vehicle. Consult it for detailed instructions.
