1992 Geo Storm Reviews - Page 3 of 7

Ignition module was corroded (needed a new coil and module).

Battery died one day in winter.

Tail light burnt out.

Resonator and muffler had big holes.

Throttle was sticking causing the engine to rev in Park or when stopped at a light.

My Storm can sometimes be peppy (I think it needs a tune-up), but hills are its worst enemy.

The backseat is very low so when I have passengers in the backseat... they always hit their head on the hatch window (kind of funny). But that doesn't matter much because it is a sports car, not a mini-van.

Front Driver's strut makes loud noises at times, problem solved with weekly of spraying with WD-40.

Air conditioner didn't work when I bought it. Got that replaced, $362.65.

Driver's side window got stuck while rolling up on a cold sunny day in November 1999.

Radiator stopped working while driving for a 3 hours trip, but I did that 3 times in a day, so made it 9 hours all together. Got that replaced, $250.

Hood doesn't pop up when I release it, someone had to be at the hood or I have to put something under the hood, like a screwdriver to pop up. ***I suspect it was from the accident from the previous owner according to carfax.***

Trunk lock hard to turn, warped my key. *** again, I suspect that it was from the accident from the previous owner according to carfax***

Dash cracked. Seen that in many Storms.

Backseat is very cramped. I slept in the backseat while my sister was driving, it is OK if you "lay" but not if you sit in it.

NO CUP HOLDERS!!!

Hard to replace headlights. And expensive too.

I was on my way to purchase a 1989 Honda Prelude Si on September 18, 1999. Before I got to the dealership, I saw a white Geo Storm sitting in front of another lot, and thought I'd test drive since I know the guy who works there, he would let me drive it. I love to test drive different kinds of cars and I've never drove a Geo Storm. So I took it out for a test drove, and within next hour, I bought it!

I was quite impressed on how fast it goes from a stop considering it is a tiny car. My mom calls it a mouse car.

COLD air conditioning after I got it replaced.

Always started, until February 19, 2001, it broke down. I never keep up with the oil since I didn't want to deal with the hood situation. *smack my head*

I love the outside doors handles. One very cold snowy evening after work, I saw a woman struggling to open her Ford Probe with plastic door handles and I opened mine with no problem since I just have to pull the door, not the door handles.
