I have put 126500 miles on it and the only thing to have gone wrong was the ERG valve had to be replaced. But nothing major has gone wrong. All in All it has been a pretty nice car.
It's a good, inexpensive car

I have had my Plymouth Neon for five years and it has been a good, reliable little car. It has more pick-me-up than other cars in its class. The head gasket did blow and was repaired under warranty. The other problem I've had is the "check engine soon" light comes on frequently. However, it has mostly turned out to be software updates for the CPU of the car. The other problem I had is that the sunroof stopped working after about three years... it would open and then not close! I just stopped using it. This car is too small for more than one child. space).

For the first 20K miles no trouble. Head gasket started leaking, but was repaired under warranty at no cost. 20K to 83K miles, no trouble. Put on tires, oil changes, wiper blades and a new battery. 50K miles replaced front rotors and pads $65.00 doing the work myself. 83K miles rear main seal leaks bad. $350.00 at the dealer. Auto trans. shifting problem. Dealer said problem was a shaft on trans. shift lever and gas pedal connected to. Told to spray shaft with WD-40 and move it until it moved freely. $0.00 84.5K replaced rear brake drums and shoes. $80.00. I have had good service from my Neon. It gets 30 MPG Highway/city driving.

It's just not worth the time in the shop to own one. I got mine with 52,000 miles on it. It now has 96,000 and I'm already rebuilding the top end. I've replaced the EGR valve, catalytic converter, CV half shaft, transmission, and many other things. It is the slowest 4 cylinder on the planet with the three speed automatic and I only get about 24 mpg ON A 4 CYLINDER!
Great car

Since I bought my neon i have had no major trouble from it, just the regular maintenance. I do though have a problem with the wind noise from the window and the engine is underpowered at low rpm's.
