1995 Chrysler Neon review from North America
"Comfortable, good on gas and a sweet ride! Plus sound system is great"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Lost all power on the highway.
Missfired under high speeds.
Brakes squeaked when pushed gently.
General comments?
I've had the Neon for a month and she drove like a dream in the city. However the check engine light was on steady. My mechanic (who I bought it from) said don't worry. Well took it on the highway and she chugged, missed and I almost got nailed by a semi truck because I had no power.
Took her to the dealership for a diagnostic test and their suggestion was to replace spark plug wires, and O2 sensor was faulty.
Replased sensor and spark plug wires and now she runs like a dream on and off the highway.
