1994 Geo Metro review from North America
"Good looking car for a cheap dollor"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first got the car the radio had been stolen out of it and the trim around the heater stuff was all cracked went to a junk yard and got the trim for $10.00. The window trim was bad and the window would get stuck when I would roll it up. 1 week after I got it the window got stuck and broke all over, cost be $25 after paying a deductable from my insurance. At 164000 my pcv valve was bad and would stall out the engine runs fine now. The engine will rattle when its idling the dealership thinks it is a engine mount bracket.
General comments?
The gas is great gets around 40 mpg in town and about 50 mph on the highway. the maitnace is very cheap on it and the 3 cylinders have some get up and go on it.
