1991 Geo Storm GSi review from North America

Funky electrical system, sometimes the engine turns off when driving.

Another thing that bothers me about the car is the engine is kind of noisy.

Well, at this very moment I am without a ride on a Friday night because my Storm is sitting at the Chevy Dealership waiting for a part that should, "hopefully be in by Monday or Tuesday" according to Auto dude Alan.

See I have this little problem where my Storm will turn off when I am driving. It is a problem that happens every-so-often right when you are not expecting it. Alan thinks that it is a problem with a 'sensor'? I don't know, whatever it is, it has been through two other garages with no success. So everyone... cross your fingers!!!

On to the review... I purchased my car in July 1997. It had 69,000 miles on it, now it has 125,000. This my first car, and I do have a strong bond with it. I got my car in in highschool and now I am away at college. I would like to eventually go onto another car that has 4 doors and has more room to carry my friends.

The back seat is very uncomfortable, little or no leg room, and your head hits the glass window... a little advise - don't put guys in the back that have gel in their hair because they will leave a large mark on window!

Driving is alright, I have a manual stick, and on long trips (2+ hours) you're still doing alright, but there is no cruise control so your right leg does start to ache. The seats are not completely comfortable but they are do-able.

I would have to say that overall, the Storm has been a good car. Despite the whole funky electrical system this car has been very good maintenance wise.
