1986 Geo Sprint Plus review from North America
"You can't win races in this one!!!!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Spark plugs over and over again.
A/C condensor busted, A/C compressor broke, took forever to get it fixed.
Rear brakes.
General comments?
This car is OK but at times it drives me CRAZY, it can't keep up with traffic no matter what you do, I mean to the floor you get nothing, no performance whatsoever. I mean don't get me wrong, this car has never broke down on me but the slowness is really starting to get to me, it's pretty bad when a Yugo can outrun you.
Another thing is you can't find parts for this car anymore, it's like General Motors just forgot that it ever produced the Sprint at all, last time I took it in to Chevy for a service one of the guys there was like "What is that?". I mean how embarassing for me. I will be glad when I get my taxes back and I can buy a new car.
