1995 Dodge Neon: engine stalls while driving

Filed Apr 29, 2018 · Transmission · 100,000 miles · AZ

The PCM on my 1995 dodge neon was replaced on june 16, 1994, 2 months after I bought the car. Done by jay chevrolet/geo/dodge in island park, ny. My car has been stalling on me and shutting down off and on for the past 5 years. I spent over $4000 to have parts replaced and the car still has the problem. I want my car checked completely free of charge. It has only 110k and it has been cared for since day one. My brother is a mechanic in oceanside, ny and has been my mechanic since I bought it new up until I moved to phoenix, az and all the mechanics I've used here can't fix my car. This is unfair if the problem is the PCM again. The car had complete diagnostics done by 3 mechanics and they can't find anything wrong. Pcm does not show in diagnostics. P.s. I filled out my personal info with my current address but will be moving on may 12, 2018 to: 21220 n. 23rd ave phoenix az 85027

Vehicle drives from approx 8 miles before check engine light comes on. Then after that the engine sputters and stalls while driving down the road. After several minutes of waiting the vehicle can be driven for a few miles then stalls again. After sitting all night vehicle can be driven for a short distance. Oedb2 code reader said cylinder 1 misfire.. Replaces spark plugs, wires, fuel filter, checked coil. Everything seams to be working fine. Vehicle can be ran at idle for very long time with no complications. Pcm is bad.... Their is a recall in effect but my VIN doesn't match up. See recall 94v‑033.. Been going on for quite some time now. And after ruling everything out it is the PCM... I believe the recall should be re opened to include last 8 VIN code st356500.

On august 12th while driving on scatterfield dr, an area of high construction, my 1995 dodge neon suddenly stalled and quit right in the middle of traffic. I had a full tank of gas so I knew that was not the problem and luckily it was a construction area and traffic was moving rather slowly. I was able to pull off the road and the car would not start so I caledl peyton well auto at (765) 644-1111, who on august 11th had just repaired my car for similar problems that included my battery light coming on and then the car may or maynot start.they sent a tow truck to get me. A month earlier the car stalled and just quit and I had it towed to this same dealership who charged me 300.00 to fix the electrical suspension and harness. On august the 11th I was told it was the starter and that cost me another 300.00. After researching the recall list I found recall information # 94v033000 that identifies powertrain control module problems that should be replaced. This was obviously never completed on this vehicle. I am scared to drive the vehicle. The peyton well service advisor ben woodfill stated if anything like this happened again they would fix it for free but this was after telling me that the main harness to the motor needed replacing and that they had found some corrosion on another electical part and cleaned it up on august 12th. My fiance spoke with the service advisor and stated that we were under the impression the problem was fixed the first time when we had it towed in but now they were telling us that it would cost and additional 700.00 to get this so called main harness replaced. It was then that mr. Woodfill confered with his manager and they stated they would fix anymore problems like the ones I have had for free. To me this is unacceptable. If they know there is aready a problem then why not go ahead and fix it. Don't wait until my car stalls in 65 MPH traffic and it is too late. Please help!!!

I own a 1995 dodge neon and it has a major headgasket oil leak that a mechanic diagnosed. The headgasket leak has been getting worse and this is a major problem because I am adding a quart of oil every three days. The entire bottom of the engine is covered in oil. I checked the federal safety agency defect investigation reports and many consumers have complained about this serious problem. Every time I drive there is a strong smell of burned oil. On 12-15-2003 smoke started to come from the engine. I am very worried that this might start an engine fire if the car gets very hot. I have checked various automotive websites and in one site a dodge owner mentions that his mechanic told him that a customers dodge neon had an engine fire. I contacted a local dodge dealer and they said that they could do nothing about it. This is an obvious design defect that is also a safety risk not only of engine fires but also engine stalls due to low oil levels. There is also a problem with the brakes making strange sounds.

Fuel pump (20a) fuse randomly blows. 30a fuses used and also randomly blow causing vehicle to stall. No indication of problem with fuel pump itself. O2 sensor and egr valve has been replaced. Mechanics have been unable to isolate the cause but have found different variations of circuit/wiring diagrams for this '95 neon sport model vehicle. Mechanics have also received varying advice from dodge dealerships on the cause and remedy. Result is safety hazard to vehicle driver and occupants if the system fails in traffic.
