2001 Dodge Neon SE review from North America
"A great buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The gas needle stops working on its own sometimes, but comes back on when I make a sudden turn or accelerate.
It has stalled twice when approaching a stop light.
Gas mileage is far from what was said on the window sticker.
General comments?
Overall, I like this car, and has not had any major problems. I drive it 5 miles in bumper to bumper traffic to school each day, and it never runs hot, and works great. I also drive it 30 miles one way to church and it does great on the highway.
The performance is good for the small engine it has.
The car handles well for its size. I can whip in and out of traffic no problem.
