1994 Dodge Neon Sport review from North America
"Just say Hi to Neon! Great car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear fuel pump failed, at about 70K.
No other problems.
General comments?
It's AMAZING. The car that Chairman Lee said Chrysler couldn't build; and managed to.
The Neon was quite a good looking car, was interested ever since I first saw it in 1992, at the Auto show. The final product wasn't quite as nice looking, but was a nice car to own.
The downside - it was cheaply made. The plastic on the dash reflected horribly on the windshield. It sorta made you keep the dash dirty, to cut down on the wicked glare. The door panels were also VERY hard cheap looking plastic.
Other than those minor gripes, the car was GREAT to own. Ran trouble free for 70K, with the fuel pump; once fixed the car ran for another 35K before struts/tires/brakes needing replacement.
Overall it was a great car!
