Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Head gasket: took the 1999 dodge neon to a mechanic after express oil noticed an oil leak. i always have oil changed every 3000 miles. the mechanic told me that i had a warped head gasket and would have to be replaced. the car doesn't even have 60,000 miles on it. i have read numerous complaints on this and wonder why dodge will not accept responsibility and recall? my bill ended up being $2000 because they also needed to replace the timing belt which shouldn't have to be replaced until after 90k miles. *la
