WHEN ATTEMPTING TO HAVE ALL NHTSA ISSUED SAFETY RECALLS COMPLETED ON MY VEHICLE SERVICE REPAIR CENTER MANAGER. STATED THEY ONLY APPLIED TO CERTAIN NEON'S NOT ALL OF THE 2000'S. I HAVE YET AS OF THIS DATE BEEN ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH NHTSA RECALL ID#99V043000, #99V114000 NOR HAVE I EVER RECEIVED THE ADDENDUM REFERRED TO IN NHTSA RECALL ID #00V366000. IN RECOGNITION OF THE RECENT PROBLEMS EXPERIENCED W/MY VEHICLE, OVERHEATING, INOPERABLE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW, HORN & AIRBAG SYSTEM AND MY HAVING ALSO EXPERIENCED BRAKE PROBLEMS, I FEEL THESE RECALLS ARE ESSENTIAL. HOWEVER, THEY ARE GOING UNRECOGNIZED BY ANNAPOLIS TATE DODGE. *NLM
