1995 Plymouth Neon review from North America
"Mine is an absolute piece of garbage"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Leaking head gasket.
Piston shot out of the engine (blew up).
Replaced the engine, the replacement was faulty too.
Endless number of sensor problems.
Check Engine light on/off all the time.
Paint peeling and chipping.
Windows let in a lot of air.
Air conditioner doesn't work despite the fact that it was "repaired".
General comments?
The previous owner lowered the car which makes it great for handling, but there isn't a speed bump in town this puppy will go over.
I like the way it looks, and the interior space, but walking down and starting it every morning and worrying about what will go wrong next is giving me an ulcer.
