Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Defective head gasket on my 1999 plymouth neon. also has affected other chrysler models check tsb no. 09-05-98 for more details. chrysler should have had a recall on these vehicles. it cost me $586.00 to have it replaced through nearby chrysler dealership. they said they have replaced quite a few of these. if so why in world have they not warned people of these vehicles that the problem could happen to them before it results in more costly repairs. a service bulletin should be sent to these owners stating that if they find any oil leaking problems it could be the result of a defective head gasket. chrysler should be paying all or part of the repair costs for this defect. *la
