1995 Geo Tracker LX review from North America
"Marvelous, unbelievable and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing except routine maintenance performed by husband and sons.
General comments?
I just want to point out that this is the toughest and best little car ever owned!!!
I have to tell you one for your books
My husband, God rest his soul (he died last year) had a penchant for buying used cars and trucks from a very reliable used car dealer that we knew and liked. We must have gotten 5 or 6 cars/trucks from them. This little car is a white, Geo tracker, auto on the floor with overdrive. I have by accident put it in overdrive and driven miles and miles - this corrected
by a disbeleving son and son in law.
But the best - I volunteer for Red Cross since the Hurricane disasters. Being the kind of person who swings aboard the jet as it is taxiing down the runway, I was late and hurried up to run in. I have two identical sets of keys and key rings, thanks to my husband. I THOUGHT I had turned off the car, pulled out the key, and locked
the doors.
Four hours and 83 degrees in Louisville later, I walked out when my shift was over. I heard a faint running noise as I approached my car. IT WAS STILL RUNNING!!! I had taken my extra key in my purse, thought I had pulled out the ignition key and walked off and left it running.
Of course, we had to go to the nearest
gas station. It did not even run hot!!! I took it to the mechanic today and he could find nothing wrong with it from a cursory inspection. Told me to come back if anything suspicious happened, but I just drove in again to Red Cross, 28 more miles, and it ran just fine. All I can do is
stroke the dash and tell it what a fine car it was. I know this is kind of lengthy, but with so much negative I feel like my car adds something positive.
