1997 Plymouth Neon Expresso review from North America
"I Love my Neon!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My head gasket at 30,000, but the manufacturer paid for the repair since I called them and complained like crazy.
The O2 sensor went out a while back.
The brakes continue to squeal terribly when it's wet or damp even though I have had the pads replaced. They were fine for about 2 days and then started the squealing all over again. My neighbors are convinced I have no brakes on my car! ha-ha!
General comments?
I love this car even though I've had a few problems.
The gas mileage is great and it handles so well!
It's a perfect car for me to drive around in!
