2000 Chrysler Neon LE review from North America
"The true value exceeded the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1. Rear brake pin sheared in 2004.
2. Interior "rattle"developed over the last few years.
General comments?
1. Reliability: For a car purchased as a base model LE, it has exceeded expectations for longevity and toughness. A solid little machine, it handles well on unpaved and paved roads with no punishment to the passengers.
2. Performance: A fairly quick car, the 4 Cyl engine is more than what is required for the light frame in order to perform in the city and highway.
3. Interior: Comfortable, functional, but noisy and prone to rattle in its later years. Also, to no surprise... it is a little tight for those riding in the back.
