1994 Dodge Neon Sport review from North America
"Great Car Going on 201,000"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Head gasket blew at 120,000 miles (dealer replaced for free).
Cassette player went out three times, but radio still works great.
Starter has been replaced twice.
Alternator been replaced three times.
The passenger turn signal kept going out (figure out that it was just a short between the connectors... easy fix with duck tape)
The heater core has gone out twice (crappy mechanic cause he replaced it and then 2,000 miles later it happened again)
General comments?
This Neon's been great. the paint still looks like new except on the trunk lid is beginning to fade which is normal for a car with over 200,000 miles on it. Plan on getting another 1st generation Neon after this one finally dies (whenever that may be).
