My Dodge Neon Sucks

The car, one 1995 Dodge Neon, 77K miles on it. Diagnosis, F***ING PILE OF . Quick rundown of "quirks"
1. 56K miles, 70K miles Replaced the Head gasket, twice. One doesn't hear much about head gaskets normally, since they're supposed last the life of the CAR!

2. 59K miles MAF replaced. Engine still doesn't run quite right. Little chip won't work right.

3. 58K miles Paint isn't right, will not stick to the primer
For the love of pete! They can't even paint this shitbox right?!

4. 74K miles Torque converter and brake calipers/drums. Yeah, they just f***ing died on me, torque converter while on a hill, it starts rolling downhill. I rev the engine, trying to see if it will engage the tranny. Nope, the little ****er kept rolling down hill Lovely. Brakes blew up a day or so later, for "unknown reasons"....

Now, I'm no sunday driver, but I'm not Mario Andretti.
Notice when all the problems started, right after the goddamn warranty expired. THANK YOU DODGE! YOU MANUFACTURE SUCH WONDERFUL VEHICLES!

1. Where did you read the headgasket was suppose to last til the car died? Sorry you are mistaken there... They are a "fuse" they blow when something isnt right within the engine... Remove that fuse and you get worse issues, bents valves, burnt up pistons, blah blah blah... Be happy
the HG blew and not one of the hard parts:thumbsup:

2. Sound like it isnt what was replaced... Sounds like it was guessed at and not properly diagnosised, take it to a real mechanic

3. Your late on the PPG memo, Their paint SUCKS on a MOPAR! Its old news, doesnt mean wrong paint(that was funny though).

4. You are just full of shitty luck and no one took care of that car to start with, get the car in a shop and have it gone threw, replace what a diagnosis sheet tells you. Until then you only have the previous owners and yourself to blame for the car not running properly. Poor maintance means poor performance, thats with any car...
