2003 Dodge Neon Fuel system Problems

“Oil problem although I paid thousands for repairs.-but the engine light flashes when car is stopped at a traffic light or idling for even a short time. When car is in motion, a steady engine light is on all the time, except when it flashes. This has been happening for a couple of years. I need info on this and all recalls or complimentary repairs available . I need to be safe .thank you.”

“In the process of replacing spark plugs in our NEON, I noticed the fuel rail for the injectors under the hood has a lot of severe rust and pitting on it. It must be made out of steel. This vehicle was never under water so this must be bad parts. I don't like the fact that it is rusting out. One pin hole and there would be an engine fire. I have my children who work in a salvage yard looking to get me a rust free one now to replace this one. I believe they should be recalled.”

It cost me 3500 dollars to fix this problem.now the check engine light keeps coming on and the car is burning fuel. I am getting anywhere from 10 to 17 mpg depending on the day. …”

“I have a 2003 Dodge NEON that I bought brand new with one mile on it when I took it off the lot. Since that dreadfull day I have had problems with the vehicle starting around 10k miles. First some electrical componets in the sound system went out. From there I have had to have the rotors replacedbecause nearly every 5k miles starting around 10,500 miles. The car has a hard time starting when the temperatures get too close to 20 degrees f, when you get to zero forget it. I have had the battery tested my dealer charged me $30.00 some odd dollars to do that and said it is just me. …”

“While driving the driver lost control of the vehicle and collided with a side rail. Neither frontal air bag deployed. The vehicle was towed to a auto body shop for inspection. The cause has not been determined. Also, 2 months after the consumer purhcased the vehicle, the fuel pump was replaced. There is also an incident that the vehicle doesn't start.”
