1993 Geo Tracker review from North America
"The best car I have owned."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel pump had to be replaced at 108,000 miles. $600 for the pump from the dealer. I couldn't get one from anywhere else.
Threads in the soft top dissolve quickly. Garage kept.
General comments?
I love my tracker. Other than the dealership trying to rob me by saying additional things were wrong, that really weren't, when I had fuel pump replaced, I have almost no complaints.
I am buying my third soft top for it tomorrow because the threads dissolve quickly. Considering they run $250+, it gets rather annoying. Supposedly the newer tops use better threads, hopefully that will be true.
This car has been completely reliable. The only time it didn't start up quickly and perfectly was when the fuel pump went out.
I am also replacing my first headlight tomorrow. Not bad for ten years.
I have had no problems with rust or any of the interior plastic.
The ride is pretty rough, it shakes horribly on rough roads. The suspension could be a lot better.
I am alittle worried that the Mitsubishi ECM (the car's computer) will go out soon. Supposedly they are defective if manufactured between 88-95. That will be about $600 more.
The interior light is very dim.
It handles very well.
It has been a super car. I will never sell it. Very reliable. I can't tell a difference between the day I got it and today, it runs like new.
