My daughter was driving down the highway in the passing lane. A white SUV tried passing another car that was to her right. The SUV misjudged and hit the rear right panel of my daughters Neon sending her into the median where there are wire guard rails. She hit the guard rail on the drivers front left damaging the bumper, fender, wheel, rim steering rack and everything on the left front of the car. The air bag did not deploy. The state police filled a police report which states no fault of Neon driver and the SUV took off.

When sliding on ice I went into the ditch at approx 30 mph. The vehicle picked up speed during the slide. The ditch was steep but narrow. My front end hit the other side of the ditch causing $6000 front end damage. Neither passenger or driver side air bag deployed! my seatbelt did not latch!! my wrists impacted the dash leaving my nailpolish on the stereo. My chest impacted the steering wheel. I could not lift my baby for a very long time...a year. I couldn't tie my 6 childrens shoes without pain for over two years. I still have moderate to severe pain attacks! I still do not have full function of my right wrist and typing this irritates it like crazy. My elbow was out of place. My ribs are now permanently out of place and there are injuries to my back and neck. My right side of my face goes numb and I suffer severe and frequent headaches. I am now severely depressed. I used to be an rn. I have a weight limit of 2-10 pounds with no consistent use of my right arm allowed. This is now over 4 years since my accident. Nothing was done for me. I couldn't work and had to suffer the consequences of turning my car back into the dealer. I just paid the judgment from Chrysler off this year. I am still upset to see so very many people still being injured and Chrysler off free. I wish I had an attorney willing to sue their pants off for the life changes they have given me. I previously wore a seatbelt religiously. I'm 39 now and I promise I will never wear one again since being strangled with Chrysler's belt. Dealer did nothing to remedy. Said they had no way to check these problems and found nothing wrong with the seatbelt. Disgusting! this vehicle only had 4500 miles on it and I bought it brand new. This so call recall took place in April 1999. My purchase was September 1999.

I have a Dodge Neon 2000. On the morning of January 29, 2004, my airbag signal appeared with a ringing noise for a brief moment. Later that day, the signal began to appear more often when turning my steering wheel. The following morning, I had the dealership to diagnose the problem. I was later informed 5 hours later it was the clockspring and it was not covered under the manufacture nor the extended warranty. The price to fix it would be $389. This is a ripoff. The reason consumers purchase automobiles with airbags is for the extra security. If there was a defect with the seat belts, there would be a recall. Just like seat belts are design for protecting passengers from harm so is the airbags. Thus, clocksprings should be recalled and not put on the expense of the consumer due to the manufacture not providing a more secure part especially when the consumer is still making payments.

When the engine is started air bag light comes on and stays on. When air bag light comes on horn and cruise control do not work. Vehicle was taken to the dealer, who determined that a new clock spring was needed. The consumer believes the manufacturer should be responsible for replacing the clockspring since it is a safety related defect.
