Consumer Description

BIGGEST CONCERN AT THIS POINT IS THE AIR AND WATER LEAK. THIS HAS GONE ALL THE WAY UP TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL. AIR LEAK IS SO LOUD I FEEL IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN. WE CANNOT HEAR SIRENS OR ANYTHING ELSE BUT AIR FOR THAT MATTER. ALAMO CAR COMPANY AND CHRYSLER SAY IT IS NOT REPAIRABLE AND AIR AND WATER LEAKS ARE COMMON IN NEONS. WE REQUESTED THEY BUY OUR VEHICLE BACK FOR THE NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WE'VE HAD WITH IT, BUT THEY REFUSED TO. THEY OFFERED US A 6 YEAR/75,000 MILE WARRANTY. WE HAD PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WHEN WE PURCHASED OUR VEHICLE, SO THIS IS USELESS. IT IS ALSO USELESS BECAUSE CHRYSLER STATES THEY CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM, SO HOW WILL THE WARRANTY HELP THE AIR AND WATER FROM LEAKING. I HAVE ALL DOCUMENTATION ON HAND. *AK
