Replaced 2 or 3 clutches.
Heat wouldn't heat fast enough.
Replaced multiple front tires due to wear.
Had a hole in the muffler.
Front ball joints were shot.
Driver's side window mechanism broke.
The car was definitely a very good car. It had excellent gas mileage although I owned it about three years ago now so it wasn't that big of a deal.
The three clutches that needed to be replaced were due to letting my mother-in-law borrow the car.
I owned the 5-speed manual which was best.
The car never had electrical problems. Radio antenna was definitely in a bad position though. It snapped multiple times. Although it was easy to replace.
I would love to find another in good condition with a manual transmission.
Anyone who owns or knows somebody who owns that wants to sell please comment and let me know if you reside in the U.S.
Three words for a metro, slow, junk, deadly.
To the above person: Have you ever driven a Geo Metro?
Well I have owned several Metros and I think the 1989-1994 models are a bit too small and may be dangerous on todays roads with the size of newer cars. However the Metro from 1995-2001 are fine small cars and with the four cylinder 5-speed model the acceleration is quite good. These cars are very reliable all models are treat them good and they will treat you the same.
