Unfortunately I ran into a driver whom was in front of me due to low visibility & bad brakes. My headlights are extremely dull & foggy. Also, whomever own the car before me had the brake vacuum replaced due to recall & ever since I've purchased the car there's been a brake problem. Such as needing a new master cylinder, new propositioning, new brake shoes, and wheel cylinder. I have receipts of all work completed. I have a one year old whom ride along and I'm highly concerned about his safety. I love the car but if it continues I will junk out my car and look to sue dodge chrysler and whomever else associated with the making of the vehicle.

There has been smoke coming from behind the multiswitch on the steering column. The smell of burnt electrical components is noticed when the headlights are on. The low beam lights eventually quit and then the high beams went out while driving. The electrical wires were jiggled now giving me low beams, and no high beams. The electrical wires connecting to the multiswitch was replaced four years before because it had burned the connection in half. Now the multiswitch has been replaced and upon replacement the connection was examined, noticing that it was melted.

The rear taillight seals on my 2000 dodge neon leak everytime it rains which ends up flooding the passenger cabin and causes mold.

Turning signal headlights 80% failure, when temperature in vehicle over 100 degrees. When lights are engaged, all rear marking lamps, side, and instrument panel failed, and fog lights came on when in off position. I spoke to a tech off the record, this is a common problem. This resulted in a near collision since instrument panel was not visible to driver. When temp in car went down later that evening, switch worked. Today in the am it worked, but failed this afternoon.

The car idles very high and then accelerates to higher speeds without touching the accelerator pedal. There is a high acceleration boosts and spurts when first accelerating from a stopped position, causing car to lunge forward at high speeds. The car refuses to start when not used daily, such as a problem with the starter or the alternator, but no problems have been found with either parts upon inspections by a mechanic. Front axles pop when turning. Key is hard to disengage or remove from the ignition. Brakes are constantly squealing and wear every 3-6 months regardless f how the car is driven. Though it may or not be a problem for some, the fold down seats in the rear seat do not have a disengage lever from the trunk. Over-head dome light does not function properly and has faulty wiring, so that even though all doors are closed the dome light never shuts off. There is constantly a fuse light that flashes in my dash, though all fuses have been checked numerous times and all are in perfect working order, though they have been replaced, the warning light still flashes. The utility outlet/cigarette lighter outlet doesn't and has not ever worked since the car was bought in 2004. Fuses have been replaced multiple times, but the problem still has not been fixed. Water leaks in from rain or windshield wipers causing musty odor in the car. Car constantly over-heats during travel over 35-40 miles and leaks anti-freeze, though no leaks or pin holes of any kind could be found. Trunk sticks making it hard to open or disengage, caused key to be broken off inside the trunk lock.
