I was driving my car hard in a parking lot, and then booom clutch and flywheel came apart. The clutch and flywheel came out so hard it went through the hood and cut the core support in half. It also went though radiator, starter, and throttle body. There were people standing all around luckily no was hurt. It throw pieces of clutch about 50 feet in front of car. Dodge would not even look at the car or even fix it. So I had to buy all parts and have them installed. Went with a different clutch too.

4 Clutch problem of the 2000 Dodge Neon

Failure Date: 11/22/2002

I bought my 2000 Dodge Neon used in 2002 from reiliable Chevrolet in springfield, mo. The car had aprox 48,000 miles on it. After owning it for a few weeks, I noticed a knocking sound whenever the car was in neutral. When the clutch was depressed the knocking sound went away. I took it to central Dodge (my 5 star dealer) which told me that it was the throw out bearing. After having them fix it, which only cost me $100 because I bought the extended warrenty, the noise started again, just after a couple weeks.
