2001 Chrysler Neon LE review from North America
"Nice car not enough power"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Noticed a bucking and power loss at the dealer and was assured that it was just because it wasn't moved in a while (condensation in the fuel line) the dealer changed the plugs and it ran very smooth for about a month, When you turn on the A/C it's as if the motor doesn't have the torque to power condenser because of the lack of power. A lot of road noise while driving (even at 70km/hr)
General comments?
Power loss and road noise really bothered me about this car, tie rods both went at 65 000kms, seats are quit comfortable and the drivers seat is very spacious.
