The costs I have incurred keeping this thing on the road in the 7 years of ownership are outrageous. I have learnt a valuable lesson to always buy a foreign car. Spend your money wisely.

I have a 2001 Neon and noticed the other day that I have a small exhaust leak just below the tail pipe. I figured it is not much of a big deal. Now I noticed that two of my co-workers with a 2001 and a 2002 have the very same leak starting in the same spoke. Neither one, as well as myself, noticed...

1987 Dodge Dakota 3.9L carbed I recently posted on rec.autos.tech about the problems I was having with an MSD 5900 Blaster ignition and an MSD 8202 Baster 2 coil. It seems I could use one or the other with no problem, either the MSD ignition with the stock coil or the MSD coil with the stock...

Curiosity killed the cat.. I could not stand being away from such a wonderful group of guys who love to argure... Aside from being treated unfairly and called numerous names, I just had to come back.. I don't have any reason, really, except I missed you guys!!!!! What's been going on since I...

The engine in my 1999 Chrysler Town & Country caught fire yesterday causing total loss of the vehicle. What is strange about this incident is that it happened right after the oil change was done by one of the automotive shop chains, specializing in quick oil, tire, batteries and other small car...

I wouldn't be caught dead driving that car if you paid me. Nothing Fiat makes would be anything other than a laughing stock in North America. You know what I don't get? Daimler still owns 19% of Chrysler. Daimler has a bunch of small cars. Why aren't we hearing about any deals to bring THOSE...

Hello, The heater in my '01 Stratus started acting weird recently, and I'm clueless about cars so I'm hoping for some advice. It's generally fine, but lately it's been suddenly spitting out non-heated air when I stop at red lights or slow down in heavy traffic. Once I get going again, the heat...

Has anyone in the north country noticed that on very cold, below zero F mornings almost every vehicle starts right up. Twenty years ago and back, it was very typical for many if not most cars to die during the starting process. Possible reasons: Near universal use of 5W-30 oils and more common use...

I made a deposit of $500 in 97/98 with Smythe Mercedes, which is the San Jose area on Steven's Creek Boulevard. (I had thought of getting an ML, but decided against it later.) I started calling them around 2001/2002 about getting back my deposit, but got no action. The fellow I dealt with, Rich...

I wouldn't blame the Detroit Three executives. They were as well prepared as Paulson was. Why would they expect more detailed answers and plans were needed?

i have been watching the group for comments on the cruiser, i have not seen any and there are thousands on the road, i am going to buy one in january, is there a seperate ng for them.

In a huge surprise, Chrysler has decided to decline US government help and instead accept help from Mercedes, which still owns 20% of Chrysler. Under the plan, Chrysler will introduce competitive platforms starting in June 2009, with a total of three new platforms available by December 2009. The...

I have a 98 Dodge Stratus, with the 2.4 DOHC engine. It has about 73K miles on it. I've been told by the dealer that my head gasket is leaking. The estimate for repair is $700 - $1000. Is it worth fixing? At 73K miles, if I fix this, will there be any other big repairs waiting in the wings? Or...
