2001 Dodge Neon Highline SE review from North America
"Good for me, but frightened by others' comments!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I just purchased my vehicle a few weeks ago. I commute 30 miles each way to and from work, 5 days per week, in bumper to bumper traffic. Although the gas mileage is low due to the slow traffic, I was able to open it up on the highway (trip to Mexico) and got 35 mpg as advertised. One problem, there is a pop/tick in the steering column! Anyone else hear this?
Am taking it to a service center this week to see about fixing it.
General comments?
Handles well.
Good acceleration.
Good mpg on the highway.
Very comfortable and roomy for such a low price.
