NHTSA Complaint #710183 — 1995 DODGE NEON

ONE WEEK AFTER PURCHASE, ALL OIL WAS GONE FROM CAR. DEALER FIRST REPLACED THE OIL PRESSURE SENDING UNIT, KEPT LEAKING, THEN REPLACED THE VALVE COVER GASKET, KEPT LEAKING, THEN REPLACED THE CAM SEALS. DEALER ASSURED ME THAT IT WAS NOT THE HEAD GASKET. STILL LEAKING OIL. TOOK IT TO PERSONAL MECHANIC AND IT IS THE HEAD GASKET LEAKING. DEALER HAS REFUSED TO REFUND PURCHASE PRICE OR REPLACE VEHICLE. THIS HAS BEEN OVER A 2 MONTH PERIOD. THE VEHICLE ALSO HAS VERY NOISY BRAKES, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT HAS SAT FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME (OVERNIGHT). THE CAR HAS A SHAKING AND RATTLING IN THE STEERING COLUMN WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS, ESPECIALLY AT SLOW SPEEDS. THE DASH BOARD REFLECTS ON THE WINDSHIELD WHEN IT IS SUNNY AND THE GLARE MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AT TIMES.
