My car vibrates while holding the brake. While at a stop sign or a drive thru. Sometimes it's pretty loud and then sometimes it seems to stop. Putting it in neutral and park stops. It's only while pressing on the brake if I'm on a flat spot if I don't pressing my brake it doesn't make the sound. I noticed the sound after I had my brakes changed after about a week

  • Welcome to Motor Vehicle Maintenance & Repair! I'm not quite following ... is it a sound or a vibration (or both)?

What you describe sounds exactly like the symptoms of a bad motor/transmission mount. With some help from another person this is easily confirmed. Here is a good video on how to identify failed motor mount on the transversely mounted engine and trans axle design which is used on a dodge stratus.

    @L.hawes Some folks, like myself, do not have high-speed internet, and can not watch video with any reasonable efficiency. By summarizing the video in one sentence, at least, you'd be greatly helping folks who depend on this largely text-only website for learning. I urge you to consider adding some content at your leisure. Please, and thank you in advance.
