I purchase a 2005 dodge neon in june. Approxiately 3 werks later I notice how when I would have to stop when time to move forward car would stall and barely want to go then all of a sudden it would pick up. It did that for 2 days. The 3rd day I drove away in it with no promblems. When time for me to leave it would not start. I replace starter,battery, alternator and also made sure all these parts where good. My car still will not start. Please help me out just spent $2,000.00 and my car still will not start. Car was parked when it occured.

I have a dodge neon 2005 and I know a few other people that have them to. I have been getting like a stall and engine light coming on so I took it to auto zone and they say it's the cam sensor. Three out of the five people I know with neon say they had the same thing happen and when I research it it's all over the internet why is this not a recall since so many people are having issues with it.

Tl*the contact owns 2005 dodge neon. The contact stated that the check engine light illuminated and the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing and they were unable to duplicate the failure. He then took the vehicle to another dealer who stated that the camshaft sensor and the camshaft sensor wiring needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was contacted and they were aware of the failure.

Car fine until it warms up then the motor begins to shake, huge RPM loss, cuts off mid-traffic. Happens every time car is driven over 30 miles, then is undriveable for at least 6 hours. Stalls in the middle of highway or uphills, or down hills . Very dangerous going over 30 MPH.

At 112,000 miles vehicle started loosing rpms at all speeds and conditions, usually after being driven for 30 miles or more. Sudden onset, no prior indication. Entire car shakes then at times stalls in heavy or no traffic, particularly at any inclines. Today I merged into heavy interstate traffic and vehicle suddenly stopped. The fuel pump has been replaced and no one has been able to offer any help as to what else it may be. I have found various forums with this make, model, year with the same exact problem with no solution indicated. This is the most common problem with this vehicle according to 3 major sites and at least 4 mechanics, often occurring on brand new vehicles. Dodge has been notified. There may not have been an accident yet but it will most likely happen.
