What owners wrote
Front passenger door panel was slipping off, causing the passenger to get trapped in the vehicle. The panel was under warranties, but the dealer never received the parts. This problem caused the door panel to stick and lock the passenger inside the car.
My 1996 dodge neon had two head gasket failures to date now. The first was repaired 29,000 miles ago, and now, at 89,000 miles, I had another head gasket fail on me. The car is also peeling paint excessively. Instead of under ten years old, the car looks over twenty years old!
