2001 Dodge Neon R/T review from North America
"A high performance car with a lot of problem"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First I got a loose in the stearing colum, they change the colum.
Second the shifter was doing a weird noise when I was shifting gear, they change the boot base.
Third there was a rateling noise coming from my engine, they change 2 belt 4 piston and all the gasket.
ANd the last problem it's a leak of water on the passenger side (only under heavy rain) nothing have been done.
General comments?
My car is a 2001 r/t fully equip. This car is seriously quick and handles like it's on rails.
The interior is just great. The radio is over the average. The car is good, but so many thing when wrong. I recommand the r/t only if you're not afraid of car problem. But don't ever think about buying a regular neon, it's a dam bad car believe me.
