NHTSA Complaint #739384 — 1995 DODGE NEON

I BOUGHT THE CAR (1995) USED IN 1998. A FEW MONTHS LATER, THE MASTER CYLINDER WENT OUT IN ROAD CONSTRUCTION NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. HAD TO REPLACE CALIPERS, ROTORS, BRAKES AND MASTER CYLINDER. I HAD A WARRANTY BUT WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT COVERED. IT COST ME 1000 DOLLARS. TWO MONTHS LATER, I HAD TO REPLACE THE BRAKES AGAIN. HAD CONTINUOUS BRAKE NOISE THROUGHOUT THE NEXT YEAR WITH A COUPLE MORE ADDED BRAKE REPLACEMENTS. IN DEC. OF 2000, HAD TO REPLACE BRAKE BOOSTER. COSTING ME ANOTHER 500 DOLLARS IN REPAIRS. I AM SCARED TO DEATH TO DRIVE IT. ON JAN. 12 OF 2001 THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. I CALLED TO SEE WHAT THE WORST CASE SCENARIO WOULD BE AND I WAS TOLD 1000 DOLLARS TO FIX A SENSOR!!! I WANT DODGE TO PAY FOR THE ON GOING BRAKE PROBLEM. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. I HAVE COME SO CLOSE TO GETTING INTO ACCIDENTS FROM THE FAILURES OF THE BRAKE SYSTEM!! THIS IS A LIFE THREATENING SAFETY FEATURE THAT SHOULD NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS BESIDES THE NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR OF THE BRAKES. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. PLEASE RESPOND AND TELL ME IF THERE HAVE BEEN ANY RECALLS. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND NOW I WANT DODGE TO PAY FOR IT. THANK YOU.*AK
