Radiator problems of the 1996 Dodge Neon

While driving temperature gauge went to hot. Consumer made it to dealer, and dealer stated that radiator needed replacing. One week later, head gasket needed replacing. Please provide any further information.

Engine head gasket blew out. As the result of head gasket failure, oil mixed with the coolant. The dealer cleaned the radiator and fixed the head gasket.

The head gasket leaks, with a cold engine radiator cap off fluid will be forced out like old faithful. Oil leaking from back of the engine on the driver side. I found out this isn't just a one car problem. I have 14 pages of people with the same problem. I also have 15 service bulletins reporting the same thing. It seems it should be a recall. Plus I shouldn't have to pay anything for engineering faults.

While driving engine overheated and it was using 5 quarts of oil a day, and oil in the radiator that came out like cottage cheese.

I own a 1996 Dodge Neon and recently my engine check light came on. My husband checked my oil and anti-freeze and noticed there was oil in the radiator. He knew right away that the head gasket was gone. We went to the dealer to purchase a head gasket and the salesman told us that Neon's were known for this problem that the original head gasket that were installed at the plant weren't think enough. My husband asked him why we should replace this and not the dealer. Our area part stores can't keep up with stocking head gaskets for these cars. Why should we pay for this?.

The head gasket was defective which in the process it ruined the short block, cylinder three, and the radiator.

Oil leaks, raditor smoking.

Head gasket leaks, caused oil to leak into radiator, oil leak causes smoke-smell to come off of engine. Its amazing how many Neons have this problem but yet there is no recall.

Have read complaints on head gaskets, taking car to dealership tomorrow to have ours replaced, it has been leaking into the radiator. Time for a recall!!.
