1996 Plymouth Neon review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Head gasket blew at 35000 (lucky still under warranty)
Camshaft replaced at 65000; 450.00.
Egr valve replaced cost; 300.00.
Headlights have to be replaced they have some kind of yellow film on them like someone rubbed sandpaper on them.
Passenger wind not seal that great.
I love my car, but I will never by another car from that cheap, incompetent dealer ship.
General comments?
All in all for a car that's 8 years old I haven't put that much into it.
