I had a problem with my 2000 Neon overheating at idle. After some research I narrowed it down to a probably faulty thermostat. I was able to trade this one in for my old one and it was an exact match. The whole repair took 10 minutes. The car started fine and I let it idle for a good 30 minutes and the temp gauge never got too high. I've also noticed that the fan turns off normally. This part did exactly what it was supposed to do and there were no issues, I am very happy with this purchase.
