2004 Dodge Neon

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET, MY REAR PASSENGER END WAS LEANING A LITTLE TO THE SIDE. I WAS A SMOOTH PAVED ROAD AND IT FELT AS THOUGH I WAS HITTING POTHOLES. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD THOUGHT MY TIRE WAS FLAT. I T0OK THE CAR TO A SHOP TO GET CHECKED OUT. THEY STATED THAT MY REAR SHOT BLEW. ON 11/20/18 MY DEFROSTERS ARE NO LONGER WORKING. MY HEADLIGHTS ARE DIM. I TRIED REPLACING THE BULB. HOWEVER, IT STILL ISN'T BRIGHT ENOUGH TO DRIVE IN THE DARK.

2004 DODGE NEON LOST HEAD LIGHTS WHILE DRIVING LATE AT NIGHT. HAD THERE NOT BEEN TRAFFIC IN FRONT AND BEHIND, I WOULD HAVE RAN OFF THE ROAD. MULTI FUNCTION SWITCH HARNESS MELTED CONNECTOR TO MULTI FUNCTION SWITCH CAUSING SHORT TO FUSE 16. PRIOR TO FUSE 16 BLOWING, A MELTED PLASTIC SMELL WAS COMING FROM THE COLUMN COVER. REPLACED MULTI FUNCTION SWITCH WHICH SHOWED SIGNS OF OVERHEAT (COPPER TARNISHED). WHILE DISCONNECTING THE MFS HARNESS, THE CONNECTOR WAS OVERHEATED (MELTED) AND WAS FALLING APART. BOTH FUSES (17 & 18) TO THE HEADLAMPS WERE INTACT SO ISSUE IS INSIDE THE CAB. I STILL NEED TO HAVE THE HARNESS CONNECTOR TO THE MFS REPLACED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2004 DODGE NEON SRT4 ON THE EVENING OF NOVEMBER 2ND 2008 WHEN MY HEADLIGHTS FAILED. THEY WERE CUTTING OFF AND ON. I DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME IN THE DARK SINCE I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY FOR A TOW. I CHECKED ON SRTFORUMS.COM FOR AN EXPLANATION OF THE ISSUE AND WAS DIRECTED TO A POSTING ABOUT THE WIRING HARNESS BURNING UP INSIDE THE STEERING COLUMN. SURE ENOUGH MY HARNESS AND CONNECTOR IS FRIED. THIS COULD HAVE LED TO A FIRE AND WILL BE A COSTLY REPAIR. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED IN MANY OTHER PEOPLES VEHICLES. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL SINCE IT IS DUE TO A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. NOT TO MENTION I COULD HAVE CRASHED SINCE IT WAS DARK. *TR

WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH A LOUD TICKING NOISE WAS HEARD COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE. CONSUMER DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION, HOWEVER THE MECHANIC COULD NOT DUPLICATE OR RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. *AK THE HEADLIGHTS HAD GONE OUT WHILE THE CONSUMER WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE WHEEL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE LINE IN THE FRONT, THE WHEEL BEARING WAS BROKEN IN HALF, THE FOG LIGHTS HAD GONE OUT, THERE WAS A ROARING SOUND WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, THERE WAS A WHIRLING SOUND IN THE ENGINE WHICH WOULD GET WORSE WHEN ACCELERATED, THE ROTOR/PADS RUSTED, THE STEERING PULLED TO THE LEFT, AND WHEN SLOWING DOWN, THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD SHAKE.
