problem #1

Oct 182004

Neon 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 67,000 miles
Car stalled out and stopped on freeway! I was almost rear ended. Stated right up but stalled again. Had it towed to shop (pepboys). They replaced several parts before referring me to dealership as they could not find and fix the problem. Chrysler dealership says it is engine wire harness at $930 to fix. Daimler-Chrysler knows part is failing in Neons but declined to assist in the repair. Dealerships ordered part 7 days ago. Still has not arrived and I have no transportation.
