2000 Geo Metro review from North America
"The Geo Metro is a very good economy car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine will kick out of gear randomly while driving.
Air conditioning leaks coolant.
General comments?
Good commuter car in general. My only serious problem so far has been the engine kicking out of gear while driving. I do not understand why it does that. Essentially I will be driving down the road at 55mph and then suddenly it is completely out of gear, as if the car were in neutral, and I have to pull over and start it up again. I was curious if that was a common problem and if anyone knew about a cheap fix.
