I have a 1998 Dodge Stratus. brake paddle is almost to the floor to work.
Had a repair shop replace the master cylinder and he bench bled the master
cylinder before he put it in. He bled all the wheels and when he was done it
still has the same problem (poor paddle to floor). Brought it to another
repair shop he bled the wheels, said he gravity bled the brakes foe two
hours, still not fixed.

I had a dodge dealer put it on his meter and checked it, it showed all was
ok (power ect).  He said he is not sure what it might be.

does anyone know what I can look for next?

Try adjusting the rear brakes. If they are out of adjustment it will
require a lot of pedal travel to get the brakes to engage. The smallest
things cause the biggest problems.
