R12-if it has ac of course.
there are 2 valves on the large refrigerant line on the front passenger corner of your engine compartment, one large and one small, freon is always added through the smaller of the 2. Pick up a kit for it at auto zone

4 quarts... Initially. After doing so, start the vehicle and shift into every position a few times. Check your fluid levels again, and add as needed. I had to add another 2 quarts to get to the proper levels on my 1992 Shadow ES 3.0 v6.
First off your 2005 Dodge A/C system does not contain any Freon. It contains R134. Freon has not been used since 1995. Secondly you should not add refrigerant until the leak is repaired. Once it is repaired the system should be recharged by a professional with the proper tools and gauges.
Same place you check it.
Use a freon gauge and freon refill can. Connect the gauge to the low pressure ac port of the 2003 Stratus. With the engine running and ac on high, fill the system until the gauge shows full.
