1992 Geo Metro LSI Convertible review from North America
"Reliable runabout"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air-conditioning had to be recharged @ 82,000 miles.
Rear window has cracked where it folds.
Muffler has came loose.
Driver's side door handle broke.
Top leaks water badly.
General comments?
Very reliable car. Made cheaply though. Course that's what these cars are - cheap transportation, so you can't expect much from them.
Great on gas even with an automatic. Very slow though, no power at all, engine runs at extreme RPM's on the interstate.
Would be a lot better with power steering.
