| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have spoke with numerouse mechanics and neon owners and they have all had the same problem. they comment as saying neons are netorious for faulty head gaskets. i had problems with the one the factory installed. so i went to the dealer and purchased another head gasket and replaced that one and now 2years later it need to be replaced agian. this if rediculous. i have heard that the head gasget that was issued was faulty and they reissued a high preformance one. to my knowledge there has not been a recall. this is a very expensive thing to fix. i would understand if it was basic maitnance. that does not seem to be the case in any of the ones i have came across. if you took the time to speak to neon service departments and owners you would see that it is an overwhelming issue that needs to be addresed and the owners of these vehicals should be compensated. thank you for your time and the work that you do to help the concumer, damien michel. *ak |
