1996 Dodge Neon review from North America
"After 2-3 yrs, it's nothing but repairs!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced head gasket twice! Replaced instrument panel one year ago. In shop today needing a new speedometer head. Replaced oxygen sensor two months ago.
General comments?
It's always something with this car! In the last 2 years, I've spent over $2,000 in repairs. The brakes squeak no matter what I do. I wouldn't recommend anyone buy this car.
