CarComplaints.com Notes: Chrysler has taken the boring small car frame of the Neon, grafted a 1930s-era roadster body on top and named it the PT Cruiser. While the new look may appeal to some, the vehicle has unfortunately also inherited many of the same problems as the Neon.

Car over heated. Wife caught it soon enough. Did make steam. She was late to work. I came to the rescue. Water level was only a little bit down in the water neck. Took only 16 oz of water to fill it. Fan not running. Everything checked out ok. Drove the car to my shop at night and at 50 MPH. Stayed cool with the defroster running and heat on. Removed the fan unit and returned to auto parts store. Only a 30 day guarantee... ??? Wanted over $180.00 for a new one. Got on line.... Rockauto got a new assy for $65.00. Car ran fine afterwards.
