I'm guessing it's an older car (as in at least 5 or more years, or a lot of miles). over time, the brackets that hold the motor to the chassis begin to wear, and the engine vibration becomes more apparent inside the car. this is made worse when you put more of a load on the engine by requiring it to power the headlights or engage the transmission.

Why does your car vibrate when your at a stop light or while applying the brakes for a 2001 dodge stratus?

If you are saying it vibrates while applying the brakes just before you come to a stop, then the brake rotors are warped. You will need to have them turned and trued, and replace the front brake pads. If you are saying it vibrates while you are sitting still, then look for a vacuum leak.If you are saying it vibrates while applying the brakes just before you come to a stop, then the brake rotors are warped.
