The fan belt needed to be replaced and then tightened twice after replacement.
Both driver and passenger side windows don't roll up smoothly. They need to be pulled up while turning the handle.
Left speaker blew out.
No A/C!
Heater doesn't work on low.
Not much leg/head/rear seat room. Definitely a one to two person car.
This little Geo is my first car. I absolutely love it! It's like driving in a tuna fish can, but it's so inexpensive, both on gas and maintenance. I haven't had any big serious problems (knock on wood), except it being totaled once and having to replace the hatchback and tail light cover because of it. Other than that, it seems like as long as you keep up on oil changes and all that important stuff this little car won't stop.
Of course, it's another matter to get it going at a reasonable speed since it's apparently powered by hamsters and not an engine, but otherwise it's a great car.
Thanks for making me laugh! My husband and I own a 1992 Geo Metro and it is indeed powered by hamsters. :) Great car.
I don't know I think it goes OK for what it is the little 3 cylinder sewing machine :)
I’m beginning to thank it really is powered by hamsters. One day I opened my hood to do a routine checkup on all my fluids and stuff and I popped open the air filter and found a rats nest with fathers in it. LOL kida odd. After that I noticed a jump in power, darn hamsters.
You know there has been a car powered only by hamsters. It was the winner of the Annual Toyota Ideas Olympics in Japan in 2001. Hamsters were used to generate electricity that powered the car.
