1998 Chrysler Neon review from North America
"A short-term car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The head gasket has blown twice in the first 3 years.
The water pump had to be replaced in the first year and a half.
The tire rod and steering unit had to be replaced in the first year and a half.
General comments?
This car is very comfortable because the seats have lumbar support.
Other than those major issues that were covered under warranty, the car rides pretty smooth.
