1999 Dodge Neon

HAD CAR REPAIRED FOR A CRACKED HEAD GASKET AND CRACKED RADIATOR. I ASKED THE DEALERSHIP WASN'T THERE A RECALL ON CRACKED GASKETS I WAS TOLD FOR THE 98 DODGE NEON. GOT NEW BRAKE PADS. THEY SQUEAL LOUD AND IT TAKES A LOT FOR CAR TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. HAD TO GET A NEW THERMOSTAT ON MY CAR BECAUSE IT KEPT RUNNING HOT. IF THEY REPLACED MY RADIATOR IN JAN 2003 WHY IS MY THERMOSTAT OUT. ALSO THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND HAD TO HAVE THE FUEL INDUCTOR REPLACED ALONG WITH A FEW OTHER THINGS.

I CAN NOT GIVE EXACT DATES BUT HAVE ALL SERVICE BILLS. I HAD THE HEAD GASKET CHANGED WHEN IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE AIR COMPRESSOR IS BAD AND NOW MY STRUTS ARE BAD ALL AT 44 THOUSAND MILES. ALL THE TIRES THAT CAME WITH THE CAR WERE REPLACED WAY BEFORE THE WARRANTY. I HAD MIDAS PUT MY NEW BRAKES ON SO I DON'T HAVE TO KEEP GOING BACK AND REPLACING THEM THROUGH SPIZTER DODGE. THIS IS THE WORST CAR I EVER HAD AND I HAD A YUGO THAT SAYS ALOT

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HWY @ APPRO 70 MPH, THE STEERING COLUMN STARTED TO SHIMMY, AND MY FRONT PASSANGER BLEW. I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, AND LANDED IN THE MEDIAN IN APPROX 3 FEET OF WATER. HAD TO TOW THE CAR FOR 50 MILES, BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THAT THE "BEAD BROKE ON THE TIRE, DUE TO IMPROPER MOUNTING AT THE TIME OF MANUFACTURING." THEN ALMOST IN THE SAME BREATH, I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS MY FAULT, MY TIRE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER "ROAD HAZARD OR WEAR AND TEAR ON THE TIRE". I WAS THEN TOLD TO TURN IT INTO MY INSURANCE COMPANY, WHICH I DID, AFTER LOSING MY JOB FOR LACK OF TRANSPORTATION. I FILED A DEFECT COMPLAINT WITH GOODYEAR, AND CHRYSLER. CHRYSLER TOLD ME IT WAS UP TO GOODYEAR, WHO IN TURN DENIED MY CLAIM 3 HOURS LATER AFTER I FILED. MY INSURANCE COMPANY TOTALED OUT THE VEHICLE, AND LEFT ME WITH A $400 BALANCE STILL TO PAY ON MY LOAN FOR THE CAR. I UNDERSTAND THAT IN 1997, BOTH MANUFACTURES INVOLVED WERE FORCED TO RECALL APPROX 40,000+ VEHICLES DUE TO THE SAME PROBLEM. EVEN THOUGH I WAS NOT PHYSICALLY HURT, THE AMOUNT OF STRESS BOTH FINANCIALY AND MENTALLY HAS BEEN ENORMOUS. PLEASE ADVISE ME ASAP OF WHAT I CAN DO. *AK( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P185/65R14 )
