1991 Geo Storm Base review from North America
"Great gas mileage, speedy little thing!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have experienced problems with both CV Joints/drive axles. This problem is very common with the Storm. Not a big deal really.
I have a slight power steering fluid leak. Not a big deal either.
It tends to run hot every once-in-a-while. It makes me wonder if there is a slight Radiator leak or maybe a loose hose somewhere.
General comments?
This is a great car! It gets superb gas mileage, and it flies! Would definitely own another one. It has been described to me as handling like a Corvette.
This car is seriously underrated by many people. The whole "Geo" badge is supposedly a sign that it's slow. Not true! The lady I bought mine off of was selling it because she was afraid she was going to get a ticket because it was too fast for her.
