Dodge Neon
| | Model of the car: | Dodge Neon | | | General comments: | from my experience it shows its age quite fast, not too long after i bought it really. the gasket problem is really just a big hassle. they've assured me that since they've improved the part it should not be a problem anymore "because we haven't had any complaints yet"...sorry they've only been useing it for 1 year, so yeah i'd hope they didn't have any problems yet. i do have to admit the place i bought the car from have really been very good about it, by making sure i don't have to pay for the part.overall though i haven't really priced them lately i guess you get what you pay for. and maybe the newest ones aren't half as bad, but i wouldn't risk it with my own money. | | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | HEAD GASKET OIL LEAK!!!....mine went twice!!! first @39,900 than AGAIN @ 51,500!! the low price is not worth the hassle for me. i've heard of it happening to many others, and they had to pay over $800...thank god dodge payed for mine...i'm still amazed that i went 12,000 miles and it happened again....i can't wait to get rid of this piece of crap! btw my friend had a '97 plymoth neon and she replaced the head gasket about a month after i did the first time(dec. '98). and when she went to trade in her car a couple weeks ago they told her it was starting to go again....unbelievable!besides that.....it really has not held up very well for a 6 year old car with 51,500 miles on it. replaced brakes not too long ago. paint under the trunk and hood has been chipping for quite some time. tires were such crap, they'd loose pressure almost right after you put air in 'em...they've been replaced with the same ones they came with and i still had the same problem. than i got cheaper michelins and air stayed in much better. a | | | Previous car: | '89 ford festiva....not a bad car, much less hassle as the neon'?? dodge aries....well you get what you pay for, no good and yes worse than neon |
