problem #1

Neon 4-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 8,000 miles
I was driving my car hard in a parking lot, and then booom clutch and flywheel came apart. The clutch and flywheel came out so hard it went through the hood and cut the core support in half. It also went though radiator, starter, and throttle body. There were people standing all around luckily no was hurt. It throw pieces of clutch about 50 feet in front of car. Dodge would not even look at the car or even fix it. So I had to buy all parts and have them installed. Went with a different clutch too.
