2000 Dodge Neon Base review from North America
"Highly recommended and Economical Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Tire blowout @ 42,000 miles (NJ Turnpike debris)
Replaced dead battery at 55,000 miles.
General comments?
Excellent value ($11,500 brand-new), although it can be a little loud at freeway speeds.
Fuel economy is good (35+ mpg highway)
Has been very reliable for the past 3.5 years, although I am preventive maintenance freak.
Mobil-1 & filter every 4k miles, air filter every 12k and platinum plugs @ 40k miles.
