“About 2 years ago my 2005 Dodge NEON was not idling properly and shortly thereafter would not start. I brought my car to a mechanic and had a tune up and they had to replace a spark plug. Last week my car began acting in the same manner however this time began vibrating. I brought my car again to the same mechanic. He replaced the brake shoes and told me I needed engine mounts. When I went onto the internet to research the cost of these parts I came across numerous similar complaints. …”

“My 2005 Dodge NEON, began accelerating all by it self. I was not giving it gas and applying the brakes. I pulled into my driveway, it kept going, I went through my garage door. I tried to put the car in park, but the garage door slowed me down, and I then put the car in park. I read on line this has happened to hundreds of people. I tried to change the throttle sensor, that did not work. My next step is to change the oxygen sensor. I hope that works. I have been without a car for 1 week now, because I am scared to death to drive it again. …”

“I was driving on the freeway for several miles and got off an off ramp. I continued to drive throughout the city and had come to a four way stop. I proceeded to go and accelerated in 1st gear and then put the car into 2nd gear. While in the 2nd gear, the engine came to an abrupt stop and sparks flew all over the street. The clutch had ejected itself out of the transmission causing massive damage to the engine bay and chassis. Dealer and insurance companies denied my claim and have not fixed my motor vehicle.”

“I bought a 2005 Dodge NEON sxt on december 14,2005 and just on sunday january 8, 2006 the clamp and hose of the radiator just broke. I had my car towed to my house and then I had the car towed to the dealers on monday. They advised me that it was that, which I noticed that day that about 6 other cars came in also the same year make and model, it was the 2005 Dodge NEON sxt line. So they replaced the part and so far it has held up but don't now for shore yet. So please pass this down in the recall that this line of car's have a hose and clamp recall thanks edward robinson.”
