I bought this car at a used parts/used car place. I was told I was getting a good deal. They had taken it to a garage and had the radiator replaced because of transmission fluid in the radiator. It was fixed, so I thought. We had it about two weeks and it broke down coming home from a shopping trip. We got a hold of the place where we bought it and they sent out a rollback truck to pick it up. They fixed it, it was the same problem again, transmission fluid in the radiator. They replaced the radiator with a new radiator this time.
Now I am having a problem with it again. It was running hot one night on the way home from work. I had to pull off the road and let it cool off. I checked the fluids in the morning. The antifreeze/coolant reservoir was empty. I had to put some in of course. I took off the radiator cap and saw this chocolate milk like substance. We saw something like this before when the radiator had to be replaced. Anyone want to buy a Neon?
Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this thing? Thermostat? I have no idea. I would like to take it to a Dodge dealer and give them a piece of my mind. Thanks for letting me rant.
