| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My fiancee bought a 97 dodge neon from a friend at 35,000 miles. now at 70,xxx the vehicle started to leak oil, i was putting in 3 quarts a week, the car runs very rough and the check engine light is on andi cant afford to tow it to a shop to find the problem (maybe cause ive spent all my money on oil due to the head gasket leaking?) i am in the middle of repairing my self just takeing a break from the chaos and my back hurts. many neon have this problem the manufacturers redesigned a new head gasket, is this thier way of saying " hey we at dodge messed up bad and now you and thousands of other people can pay $600.00 -$1,000 to get it fixed" another bullitin from car quest say the oil leaks due to the cam sensor cover ile find out shortly i assume and if thats the case why arent any of these other mechanics catching that or do the know and just say it is the head gasket for more money from you? and i guess there was property damage my parents nice new drive has dodge dirty oil stains all over it, thanks dodge !! -- @$#holes!!*ak |
