SUSPENSION | 1/15/2004 - LOS ANGELES, CA
THE BRAKES ON THE CAR ARE JUST TERRIBLE. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2002, IT WAS A 1995 NEON DODGE(BEST I COULD BUY BACK THEN). BUT IN LESS THAN A YEAR SINCE I'VE HAD THE CAR I'VE HAD TO HAVE THE AIR CONDITIONER FIXED ONE TIME, THE PAINT IS BASICALLY PEELING OFF BY ITSELF, BUT THE WORST PART ARE THE BRAKES, I'VE HAD THEM CHANGED THREE TIMES IN LESS THAN EIGHT MONTHS. ONCE I ALMOST GOT IN CAR ACCIDENT BECAUSE THEY FAILED ON ME. SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN A SMALL LOCAL DEALER SHOP MUCH COULD NOT BE DONE, BUT I AM LOOKING FOWARD TO GETTING A BETTER CAR WITH BETTER SAFETY FEATURES.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | 10/4/2003 - CELINA, OH
1995 DODGE NEON. THROTTLE BODY. WAS BUILT WITHOUT AN "O" RING SEAL. ENGINE GETS WET, THROTTLE BODY RUINED. WHEN IT GETS MOISTURE INSIDE, THE CAR HAS TROUBLE ACCELERATING. SOMETIMES IT DOES, OTHERS IT DOES NOT. IT FEELS LIKE DRIVING A FOUR CYLINDER CAR WITH THREE BAD SPARK PLUCKS, THE ENGINE MISSES, AND BOGS DOWN. BAD NEWS IF YOUR ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE PEOPLE BEHIND YOU WANT TO DRIVE THROUGH YOU BECAUSE YOUR NOT GOING THE SPEED LIMIT. DODGE SAYS THAT SINCE ITS NOT A "SAFETY ISS WHICH, IT IS IF YOU SEE THE PEOPLE IN MY REARVIEW DRIVING UP TO MY BUMPER WHEN IT HAPPENS, THEY DON'T HAVE TO REPLACE IT, BUT I CAN FEEL FREE TO PAY THE 450 DOLLARS IN PARTS ALONE AND LET THEM FIX THEIR PROBLEM.
