2001 Dodge Neon SE review from North America
"I love neons!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well had to have the radiator mount pulled and straighten casue I hit a huge pot hole in a parking lot it made my tranny skip too so I brought it to a FORD dealership where I purchased it cause I have a warranty with them and they told me I had to ahve the straightened before they did anything else.
So I took it to a body shop had them straigtened cost 100 dollar.
Took it back to the dealership the said the tranny was bad they replaced it, but being ford people they had problems so the sent it to the nearest dodge dealship to be diagnosed it took them 1 week just to tell me that it was fine the whole time. It took 2 weeks for the whole ordeal, stupid ford people!
General comments?
This car is quick and very responsive.
Easy to customize.
Good looks.
I have had no problems other than the tranny which was totally a driver mistake.
I have put over 22k on this car in a year had have had no problems at all and I drive like a mad man too.
