Neon

  • 110,000 miles
Upon warming the car before driving to work windows steamed up badly I thought it was because of cold temp outside. This happened throughout the winter. Always having a sweet taste in my mouth took the car back to the dealer where I bought it there said the heater core was leaking would have to replace it. I called the local parts store and got a price on it $60 dollars I thought this price was ok.the parts house said good luck I asked why he was smiling when he said that.he said that was an $800 dollar job by the dealer. He was so right!! the sob who designed that should been made to change it in every car that the core wet bad in I have owned 96 1500 97 1500 99 1500 and now 2003 every one heater core leaks.went on line to see how many people had this problem hundreds. People are breathing antifreeze vapor. Help!!!!
