1995 Chrysler Neon review from North America
"What a Joke..."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
If it could break it has. This thing has been a pile since the 2nd month I had it. The head gasket went bad, the transmission has gone. The a/c compressor died. A sensor comes on every year and cost 250.00 to fix every year. The tires wear unevenly. The muffler has fallen off twice. The speakers were cheap and are all shot.
General comments?
This car was nice for about a month then it went to hell in a hand basket. It was CHEAPLY made, that was the problem, apparently they didn't take the time to test this car very much before they threw it onto the market. I was told when I bought it by the dealer that they were supposed to be great cars and last forever, that was the biggest lie I've ever been told. I have never been so disgusted with a car in all my time. What makes it worse, when I went to trade it in on a new Chevrolet Prizm they wouldn't even pay the thing off, they basically said they didn't want it! I doubt this car will last to 100,000 miles by the way it is sounding now.
