1996 Geo Metro LSi review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Washer pump went out at 45,000 miles.
Brake shoes wore out incredibly fast.
AC drainage to the outside always messing up so that it leaks in my front passenger side.
Gas gauge is extremely tempremental and can be off by more than a gallon at a time.
General comments?
This car is a good first car, as I haven't had anything seriously go wrong with it in the past 30-35,000 miles I've driven it. It's just annoying little things like the brake shoes and the washer pump and the fact that it's really hard to find any books on it to fix it. They forgot about the Metro!!
