1 Fuel Injection problem of the 1999 Plymouth Neon

Failure Date: 06/18/2002

I bought my Neon new. In three years the head gasket went and I am having problems with the fuel injection system and gas tank. Dealer says bad batch of gas has rusted out inside of gas tank and fuel injection system is also damaged. I am not a mechanic but to me this sounds very extreme. I would greatly appreciate any help you could be to me . Thank you for your time and effort. Sincerly, robert liples.

2 Fuel Injection problem of the 2000 Plymouth Neon

Failure Date: 12/05/2001

I have taken this car to charlie thomas service dept. Multiple times for repairs on this throttle body that sticks open and accelerates my vehicle to where I have to slam on the brakes. There is a recall for the injection system that causes the throttle body to become "carboned up" but the service dept will not honor this recall. I am also having problems with the brakes and the service dept says this is normal. They are making a very loud squealing noise when I first start driving, yet they charged me to repair the problem and then tell me that it is normal. Who do I contact to see about being reimbursed for those charges. I would like to also report that my car has a water leak that took them almost 2 1/2 weeks to locate and it has ruined my carpet padding. Who do I report this to. The leak was coming from the trunk. I would like to report this service dept to the correct organization about their service. I am quite sure it is not normal to have my accelerator stick while I am driving yet that is what this service dept is saying is normal when the car is cold. Well it happens when the car has warmed up and been driven for awhile. Thank you for reading my complaint and please contact me via email, phone, or mail.

3 Fuel Injection problem of the 1996 Plymouth Neon

Failure Date: 11/19/2001

My Neon has been intermittently stalling out when slowing for stops, starting the vehicle and intermittently when I am at idle. This becomes an issue when I am pulling off the highway and the car stalls, thus making it difficult for vehicles behind me to stop in time. No crashes have incurred yet, but they are possible. I have taken it in 3 times now to lebanon Chrysler-Plymouth for repair. 11-fuel pump and various cables replaced. Problem returned. !2-idle memory needed to be reset. 1-2-throttle body and thermostat need replaced. . . All of these items were completed on different dates for the same problem. My car is currently at lebanon Chrysler and hopefully the problem will be fixed completely this time, but it has been a safety issue while I drive. I leave sufficient distance between myself and other vehicles, but I cannot predict how others will drive. Thank you for your time and please let me know what you can do to help. Lisa brady.
