1990 Geo Storm Reviews - Page 2 of 6

In the time that I have owned this car, I have had to replace:

Clutch.

CV joints

Exhaust Manifold/Oxygen sensor

Catalytic Converter Pre-Heater

Timing Belt

All exhaust Gaskets.

I am about to replace the struts.

It has broke down on the side of the road only one time. (Cause:timing belt)

It leaks a little oil.

I have put well over 100,000 miles on this little baby since I bought it and it still wants to go, go, go! It's total miles currently is 227455 at this posting!

I am very happy with my storm.

It is a perfect size for me.

It is a speedy little car.

I got it from a tow yard. It had damage all over it, but I worked at an auto body repair shop, so I was able to put it back into shape. I even gave it a custom paint job: Black with a blue pearl flop. I want to get new wheels for it soon.

To be honest in the two year I've had the car nothing major has gone wrong with.

My husband thinks my car is too small, and doesn't have enough leg room, for me I think it is perfect. Although I have not had any major problems with this car, too find parts for the dohc motor is hard and parts I think are expensive for this vehicle, but is well work it I think. I love the folding down back seat. And it drives great and has power. The only thing I wish it had was Tilt steering, and a cup holder, lol.

The water pump went out January 2001 at which time we replaced the water pump, timing belt, and valve cover gasket.

The clutch had to be replaced in February 2003 due to my neglect on the car.

In October 2003 the car jumped time.

Due to a backwood mechanic the car jumped time again in March 2004.

The exhaust system has always been a headache.

My Geo has always gotten excellent gas mileage. With 93 octane fuel she usually got @385 miles.

The front of the car is very comfortable, but the back leaves little head or leg room. (good for children though)

Nothing so far, needs new belts, that's it.

I love this car. Sporty, fast, looks great! Drove by a single 65 year old man who is the original owner, mint condition. Great handling too!

Front left axle replaced at 117,000 miles due to crater in the road.

Alternator needed replacement at 120,000 miles.

Valve cover gasket replacement at 121,000 miles due to gasket wear.

Dashboard cracked do to age and weather.

Driver side door sticks.

"clicking" noise behind instrument panel.

Rear defog stopped working for unknown reason.

Car broken into through moon roof, there is now a piece of 1/4 inch laxan glass that leaks now and again.

Directional signal stops working now and again for unknown reason, believed to be caused by faulty relay.

Hatchback driver side does not always latch correctly and will rattle while driving if trunk is not slammed.

Manifold is believed to be cracked and makes the car loud while driving.

Overall the car was a good buy, simple problems that I can fix myself.

It's very comfortable upfront, but the backseat from what I hear doesn't have much leg room.

I think having a hatchback is great, plenty of room for my speaker box in the back.

Small car so you don't need a whole lot of sound to make the car pump.
