1991 Geo Storm GSi review from North America
"A fast, stylish, nice handling economy car."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Dash Pad was cracked when I acquired the car for my wife. It has steadily gotten worse.
Front Struts had to be replaced at approximately 160,000 miles. (Rear shocks were replaced as a convenience at the same time).
Ignition Control Module had to recently be replaced at 199,000 miles. (A complete tune-up was also performed as a convenience).
General comments?
This car, manufactured by Isuzu for (Chevrolet) Geo, is by far the most reliable car I have ever owned!
I am still amazed by the performance and handling of this little car.
The worst thing I can say about it, is it not meant to be used as a family car. Road trips are tough because of the hard suspension, the limited leg room and the "contoured" bucket seats. Putting an adult in the back seat for any extended period of time could be compared to medieval torture racks!
