1997 Dodge Neon Highline Sport review from North America
"High performance with OK reliability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well my radiator fans went out and the car wouldn't start. I brought the car into the dealer, they put new battery cables on it so it would start and they put a new fan relay in so the fans would come back on. One day later the radiator blew out so now it back at the dealer getting a new radiator. Total is 541 out of my pocket since I have no warranty. It's been a real pain in the butt getting rides back and forth from the dealer.
General comments?
The car overall is very nice if you do modifications to it, but I guess with all the modifications I left no money for repairs.
The interior could be a little nicer, but I put some Carrera Seats in and NR White Face gauges and a bunch of other mods so it's not too bad now.
