“Since owning this car I have had nothing but problems from 0 to 36,000 miles most were minor and were taken care of by the dealer (althoughi had to tell them what was wrong - they replaced the wrong parts the first time!). Unfortunately, most of the problems occured after 36,000 miles were on the odometer and chrysler has not been too responsive to my requests for assistnace. I have been told by the dealer that my vehicle is out of warranty and that they would be happy to fix it but who wants to pay $75.00 so that a technician can learn to fix my car. …”
NHTSA complaint #10070371, filed 2004-01, 61,000 miles“I have a 1999 Dodge NEON. I bought the car in may 2002 at bruce campbell Dodge in redford, michigan. My sunroof went out in september 2002. After arguing with the service manager, they replaced the switch (or the wires). I have the powertrain extended warranty (added care). The next occurence (may, 2004) was when I kept hearing noise in my driver wheel area. I took my care to bruce campbell to check 3 times, they said there was nothing wrong. After the 3rd time, I took it to birmingham chrysler and asked them to look at it and they told me the cylinder was cracked. …”
NHTSA complaint #10081193, filed 2004-07, 59,990 miles“Sunroof. Bought car new in 6/99; car has been in shop 8 times for problems in reference to sunroof. Sunroof replaced two times since purchase of car; same problem again. Sunroof is barely used and was just replaced in january, 2002. Its been used approx 10 times and now the gears are stripped yet again. Seems to be a problem with the mechanism for the closing of sunroof that causes gears to strip.”

NHTSA complaint #10002314, filed 2003-01, 159,000 miles“After two years of auto repair visits, I have come to find that there is a design flaw in the air induction system. Every time it rains, the vehicle sucks air through the air intake and soaks the air filter. It gets so wet that you can literally ring it out. The water is then ingested by the engine, causing very loud noises along with shaking and vibrations of the vehicle. Also eventually causing other major car trouble. Nlm”
